How to remove front cover on gsh25 side by side freezer door

This is a difficult repair. The inside of the door, which includes the door shelves has to be removed, along with the door insulation in order to get at the screws that hold the handle on.

Good Morning Jill,

I see that you are trying to remove the doors on your Frigidaire refrigerator, model# FRS23R4A, for shipping purposes. Below are the instructions you will need to follow for both the refrigerator and freezer doors.


DOOR REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS:
If it is necessary to move the refrigerator through narrow doorways, follow these steps to remove the doors.
IMPORTANT: Before you begin, turn your freezer and fresh food controls to "O" and remove electrical power cord from the wall outlet. Remove any food from the door shelves.

1. Disconnect electrical supply.
2. Open both doors, then remove toe grille.
3. Close doors.

To Remove Refrigerator Door:

1. Remove top hinge cover screw on refrigerator door and remove cover.
2. Trace around hinge with soft lead pencil. This will make it easier to realign doors when they are replaced.
3. Remove top hinge and lift refrigerator door off bottom hinge pin. Set door aside.
4. Remove bottom hinge, if necessary.
5. Reverse this procedure to reinstall refrigerator door.

To Remove Freezer Door:

1. Disconnect water line coming from lower hinge of freezer door at connection located under front of freezer: Press outer ring against face of fitting, then pull to remove tube.
2. Remove top hinge cover screw on freezer door and remove cover.
3. Disconnect wiring harness connector plug at top hinge: place your thumbs on flat sides of each connector and bend both parts back and forth, then with firm grasp, pull both pieces apart.
4. Trace around hinge with soft lead pencil. This will make it easier to realign doors when they are replaced.
5. Remove top hinge, allowing wiring harness to pull through hinge and lift freezer door off of bottom hinge pin. Lay door down flat to avoid kinking water line.
6. Remove bottom hinge, if necessary.
7. Reverse this procedure to reinstall freezer door.

When both doors have been reinstalled, connect water line by inserting tube and push until mark touches face of fitting, replace toe grille and plug in electrical power cord. Turn both temperature controls to center position. Adjust settings as necessary. Hope this is helpful.

-Best Regards-

Remove all the contents from the freezer. Next is remove the the shelves of the freezer by lifting the front of the shelf and then pulling the shelf out of the freezer. Remove screws on the left and right side of the curved panel, located on the bottom of the back panel. Remove the curved panel.
Lift the bottom of the air tower cover, located in the center of the freezer's back panel, straight back and pull the air tower cover down to remove it. Remove the screw from the left side of the evaporator fan opening and from the panel in the upper-left side of the freezer's back panel and pull the back panel toward you and out of the freezer.

I was having the same problem with my unit, I removed the back cover in the freezer that covers the coils to find the drain clogged where the water is supposed to drip into.

• I cannot confirm weather your fridge had reversible doors as you listed no model but the standard for fridges that can reverse the door swing are changed by doing this -

1. You will see little plastic covers on the opposite side where the hinges and handles are currently located now.
2. There are some little clips that hinge the screws on the top and bottom of each handle.
3. Remove these little covers with a small flathead screwdriver.
4. Now remove the screws holding the freezer and refrigerator handles on.
5. Now pop the screw hole covers on the side of the frig/freezer you will using.
6. Now place and fasten with screws the handles on the other side of the frig/freezer door.
7. Now remove the top freezer hinge first by removing the 3 screws on top.
8. Now pull up on the hinge (save the spacer).
9. Now pull up on the freezer door.
10. Now remove the screws on the middle hinge.
11. Now pull up and remove the middle hinge while holding the frig door steady (save the spacer).
12. Now pull up on the frig door and set to the side.
13. Now remove the screws on the bottom hinge (save the spacer).
14. Now put the screw hole covers you removed from the other side in the screw hole exposed from the screws you just removed.

• The switch

1. Start with the bottom hinge and place it on the opposite side (don't forget the spacer).
2. Place the frig door on the bottom hinge and the place the middle hinge in the hole at the top of the frig door.
3. Fasten the middle hinge.
4. Place freezer door on the middle hinge.
5. Put the freezer door in it's natural position to make putting the top hinge on possible.
6. Screw the top hinge in.
7. Job complete.

The front cover is removable but the main housing is part of the door and cannot be purchased seperate from the freezer door, so be careful......

Resolving the frost in shoot problem .
Remove the top freezer door hinge cover , and disconnect the plug there . This removes any power , going to the door . If no plug there , remove the bottom kick plate , by removing the screw on each side in the front , and disconnect the receptical from the wires comming from the bottom of the freezer door .
Remove the dispensor control board , by prying , or pulling , from the bottom of the board . Disconnect the 3 plugs to the board . You should now see the white dispensor cover , being held on by 4 screws . Remove these screws , and slide the cover out .
In the top right , inside the dispensor area , you will see a solenoid with a plunger , with the door flap arc , inserted into the plunger . Usually rust inhibits the movement of the plunger , keeping the door flap from closing completely .
Remove the 3 screws holding the plunger and solenoid ( part number WR62X10055 ) and replace . Cleaning will not help , due to rust will return .

Access from front of freezer door. Trim is just pushed into friction holders. Selector area snaps in. Phillip screws under that removes ice shoot.

according to the model number that you listed in the heading it just shows a cover door that slides out and down and is attached to the top freezer shelf. is this correct? If so pull one side of the slide and it will release the cover.  Now if your talking about removing the dispenser cover on the fron of the freezer door there are 2 slots on the bottom of the cover that you insert a flat tip screw driver and carefully pry the cover off. hope that helps Peyton

it should just snap off and on ,,,, something they are tuff to get loose
