MSG22GABKWW General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

There were some great posts on similar repairs that made me realize that it was best to get the whole hinge assembly. The video regarding the repair was completely accurate down to the size of the socket wrench required.

As suggested by your web site. Thanks. BC

I found you web sight. Determined I needed the hinge assembly. Followed the instructions in the video on your web sight, and it was all better.

shimed the door up to its proper level. removed plastic cam from bottom of door with a socket disconnected the water line fitting and clamp. with a nut driver removed the hinge assy from cabinet being careful i sled the hinge assy off the plastic water line being sure not to kink the line, sled the new hinge assy back on the water line and mounted the new hinge assy to the cabinet and connected the water line back up and turned on the water and checked for leaks, all went well. place the bottom grill cover back on.

Followed directions in your video. Very helpful. Be certain to pay strict attention to how old part is removed. Had a little trouble replacing door on lower pin/hinge. Helps to have a little assistance. Good suggestion from another customer: get the kit.

Removed door with little or no difficulty. Only time consuming portion of repair was disconnection and reconnecting of water line to door. This difficulty was primary due to age of the unit. After repairing, I determined that the cam on the refrigerator was also damaged so ordered same part to replace the refrigerator side.

This was a Mother/Daughter feat. We viewed the video based on the bottom hinge assembly part that we had ordered. We did it exactly as shown and it was so easy. But while we had the door off we also had a chance to really clean the frigerator inside out. We were extremely happy that we were able to repair the frigerator oursleves and how much money we had saved by doing it. Thanks

Watched PartSelect video and did exactly as video said. Had finished product in less than 30 minutes.6 bolts and one screw.

After receiving the part (quickly) my son-in-law replaced the old one without any trouble. Thanks very much

I replaced both bottom hinges on my GE refrigerator. The hint that they were worn out was that both the freezer door and fresh food door would not close completely. You had to lift the door on the hinge to get it to close. Many of the GE service repair people recommend complete removal of each door to replace the bottom hinge. I found I could use a couple of wood blocks tall enough to take the weight of the door, jacking it up off of the hinge so could loosen the hex head screws. The freezer door hinge took a few minutes longer because the water supply line for the icemaker which is routed through the tube in the hinge. Overall, an easy repair and the cost of two repair visits was saved.

Removed the top hinge of the right-hand door, removed the door, replaced the cam riser on the bottom of the door, then replaced the door and top hinge. Simple and easy.

I watched the video and did the job as instructed. It was very easy and worked as expected. The video was the key.

I watched your video on the repair twice and then did the repair. . . Your video was a major help and the only reason I decided to do the repair myself. . . The video was excellent and gave m e info on every detail of the repair. . . . . Thanks

Very easy to repair. Make sure you have a block of wood the distance from the floor to the refrig door so the door does not fall on you. Remove the two bolts holding the door and carefully lift the door away from the fridge and lower it so it clears the top hinge. Carefully lay the door on it's side so you can remove the other two bolts and the other hinge. Remove the plastic refrig dairy door so it does not fall on the floor and crack when you remove the refrig door. Reverse the process to assemble.

Replaced the gasket and the hinge assembly. Replaced the hinge assembly on the freezer door as well since it was worn. YOU DO NOT NEED A DREMEL to cut anything. People doing that are trying to save $10 but don't do it. Just order the hinge assembly. It comes with the loose cam riser and the second cam riser that is attached to the hinge. DON'T CUT ANYTHING. Super easy. I prepped the door for the hinge replacement the night before. Removed fridge magnets, etc. Moved everything from inside the door to the shelves. Got home from work (package was there in two days, fast) and it took 5 minutes for the Fresh Food Door hinge replacement. Removed hinge cover, removed 4 hex screws (two on top and two on bottom). Swapped hinge and cam. Be sure to use the cam that came with the hinge. Always replace in pairs. Freezer was more tricky. Turned off water. Had to remove a clip (small phillips head screw) on the white tubing. Unscrewed plastic nut. Pulled off spring from tubing. Set spring, nut, and clip with screw aside. Removed hinge cover, unplugged electronics, removed 4 hex screws (two on top and two on bottom). Swapped hinge and cam. Super easy.
