@@jeffcoleman1006, on the right hand door on our model, there are no electronics/electrical cables routing into the door so the cams are the same for the top and bottom hinge. I've checked my order history to assure that I did not buy two different types. I didn't, I used two sets of the same part to complete the repair. I hope that helps you! Best, DFJ

Fantastic video if you are looking for the solution. I went to whirlpool site to verify the parts for my model which were the same as yours in this video. My whirlpool model is 20 years old and our refrigerator door was not closing tightly and as firmly as it used to anymore. Ordered the parts locally from an appliance parts store which had them ready for pickup in an hour for $9.00. Expected an easy job like in your video. After taking the door off and cleaning underneath whatever was on there after 20 years, I noticed the piece in the door had already worn all the way down and the shaft that went into to the door was stuck in there. It was a battle with the long nose pliers to pull out pieces of it so that I could fit the new part. Once that was accomplished, everything went back together quickly and it works like brand new again! I can't thank you enough for this video.

Hi Jay, thanks for posting a Really Easy To Follow & A Great Video To Boot. Here's the issue in our house. My wife feels the need to put an extra 50 lbs of food into the fridge. (Same With Our Freezer)... I had to ask her to Please go to wherever it was she was going to so I could look at it... After watching your video, and just before I ordered the Hinge-Cams, I took one more look into the fridge. She buys those 1/2 gallon bottles of Coffee Creamer, but this time she had the bottle partially in front of the Gallon of Milk. I moved it over & Wa-La, the door closed correctly. Because she uses the Washing Machine Door to Hang Wet/Damp cloths on while she loads the Dryer, she's damaged the Washing Machine Door Internally, so we need a new Washer Door. & darn if they don't cost more than a new Washing Machine. Last after arguing with her about not jamming the freezer with way too much food, after 7 years, the Freezer-Door Water-Dispenser works again, as does the Automatic Ice Maker... I love my wife, there is no doubt, but her mother had to keep the house full of food because her father would take off for a week or so, every now & then. That's where she gets the ''Jam-Packing the Refrigerator'' from... Thanks again for the great video my friend... Dan

I've been hearing a "click" everytime I open the door. Thanks to your wonderful teaching skills, I am now confident I can change the cams which may be the reason I hear clicking everytime I open the door. Thank you, Dirt Farmer.❤

Was very grateful to have found this wonderful fix and it immediately solved our problem. It may be worth noting that since our first repair, it has been necessary to order new fittings and replace them every six months. Seems like the replacement parts are not as robust as the originals, which lasted ten years before wearing out.

I'm glad this was helpful to you. Indeed, the replacements are not as hardy as the original. I'm going to see if I can find a source for better units. Best, DFJ

You da Man! Thanks for sharing your insights to fixing my fridge door. The CAMS did the trick. Every time I open/close the door now, I get that sound of a solid seal. And the parts only cost about $12.00. I really appreciate the share! Saved me from buying a new fridge when all I needed was $12.00 and some time/effort. BTW, my fridge is over 15 years old.
