Refrigerator Door Upper Closure Cam

Whirlpool manufactures a range of products under various brands, including Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. They also produce items for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea.

The Door Upper Closure Cam is an OEM component specifically for Whirlpool refrigerators. It ensures the refrigerator door closes properly and aligns correctly. Positioned on the top hinge, it works with the lower closure cam to maintain a tight seal, preventing air leaks.

Over time, the upper closure cam can wear out or suffer damage, affecting the door's alignment and closure. Common causes include regular usage, accidental damage, or excessive force.

Signs of a faulty upper closure cam include:

- Difficulty in closing or opening the refrigerator door
- Door not staying securely closed
- Uneven gaps or misalignment between the door and the refrigerator cabinet
- Excessive noise or squeaking when operating the door

If you notice any of these issues, replacing the upper closure cam with this genuine OEM part is recommended. It ensures proper closure and alignment of your refrigerator door. This part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This part addresses the following problems:
- Door sweating
- Door won't open or close
- Clicking sound
- Fridge too warm
