DA97-12683B Samsung Refrigerator French Door (Flipper) Assembly

Samsung Refrigerator French Door (Flipper) Assembly. This genuine replacement part is designed for Samsung French door refrigerators and serves as the flipper door gasket assembly. It ensures an airtight seal between the doors of the fresh food compartment. The flipper also includes a built-in spring that applies the necessary force to keep the doors securely closed.

Indicators of a malfunctioning flipper assembly can include:

- Warm air entering the refrigerator
- Frost or condensation forming around the French doors
- Decreased cooling efficiency leading to higher energy costs

For installation, start by disconnecting the refrigerator from its power source. Use a small flathead screwdriver to remove the screw caps and then take out the screws. Disconnect the wire connector located on the vertical hinge and remove the existing flipper assembly. To install the new gasket, follow these steps in reverse order, ensuring the wire is reconnected properly.
