The Mullion Flipper Assembly is an authentic Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) component specifically crafted for Frigidaire refrigerators. This external part plays a vital role in ensuring the refrigerator door seals properly and, for certain models, integrates with the water and ice dispenser system. It serves as a connector for the side-by-side doors, enhancing the operation of both the dispenser and door functionalities.
Several factors can undermine the performance of a mullion assembly. These include physical damage from impacts with the door, wear from frequent use, or degradation of the seals and gaskets.
Signs that the Mullion Flipper Assembly may not be functioning optimally include:
- Noticeable gaps or drafts when the doors are closed
- Doors that become misaligned, appear loose, or sag
- Dispensers that fail to operate properly, such as an inactive water valve
This genuine part from Frigidaire is also compatible with appliances from brands such as Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and select Kenmore models.
