    hi, i have a problem with a
    maytag gc2228eedb/16
    s/n 16270134yz

    The problem is that the doors would not close properly as the lower hinge gaskets had worn out so the doors did not align properly.
    I have replaced the lower hinge assembly on the fridge door but cannot get the freezer hinge off as the water inlet hose goes straight through the hinge and gasket, the doors still do not align properly so i think i will need to replace the lower hinge assembley on the freezer door.

    Does anyone know how to remove the hinges from the water hose?
    and could there possibly be a problem with the top hinges or the socket in the door that they connect to?
    If anyone can shed any light on the matter then it would be gratefully received
    cheers

    hi rob, if you need to replace the hinge it’s a simple enough job.
    just underneath the machine on the left hand side at the front, there’s a push fit connector. disconnect the water pipe from the connector and as you remove the door, the pipe will come away with the door, through the middle of the hinge.
    adjustment of the door however, is normally done via the two screws on the bottom left and right hand sides of the machine.
    the inside screw adjusts the wheel at the back and the outside screw adjusts the wheel at the front. this is the same for either side.
    hope that helps.

    cheers.
