Refrigerator gasket mess !!!

So I have the Dometic RM3804 i believe.
1991 Excella 29

So I pony up for the $100 worth of door gaskets.
Pull the doors, replace. Watched all the videos, etc.

They dont seal worth a ****. Its raining in the refrigerator.
Its an icy nightmare in the freezer.

Obviously moist air is entering the compartments..

  • I used to be a refrigeration tech. We always used a heat gun on new door gaskets to get them to seal. A hair dryer might be hot enough.
  • You might try holding a small piece of paper between closed doors and frame in several places around the doors and see if there is the same drag as you pull the paper out. Maybe you will find a gap somewhere. good luck
