I've seen a lot of posts about the same problem with this Frigidaire refrigerator door, making a "clunk" noise as the cams wear out.In our case, the upper cam completely broke.My first mistake was thinking that all I needed to do was replace that broken upper cam.Well, what actually happened was (1) the upper cam broke, (2) the lower cam also had worn badly, and (3) the metal shaft at the bottom had damaged & warped the triangle-shaped hole that the upper cam fits into.

So I ignorantly ordered just the upper cam; when it arrived and I installed it, it still clunked.I then guessed that the lower cam needed replacing after being worn improperly, so I ordered that.Still clunked.Realized the bracket with the triangle-shaped hole was not holding the upper cam securely, so I ordered and replaced that.Still clunks.

The moral of the story is that each part has been replaced and seems to be in order, but the damn door still clunks.I suspect it'll only be a matter of time before the upper cam breaks again, but I can't see any solution past the $60+ I've already spent trying to fix it.

Ok what more can you say?Just beware the two parts to the door cam is different.You can't tell from just the diagram.

There is the flat cam and the other cam with a barrel.The barrel cam goes into the door and the flat cam installs onto the bracket.Hey when you spend that much money on the two plastic parts, you should know what you're getting.
