140010465163 Genuine Left Auto Closer Door Bearing for Electrolux, Westinghouse TF Series Fridges, Door Closing Cam

Genuine part 140010465163 is the left hand auto closer bearing used on Electrolux and Westinghouse fridges from the TF series. Fitted at the hinge, it gives the door its self closing action. Electrolux has produced several TF auto closer bearings, in left and right hand and in different finishes, so the safest check is the number shown in your fridge's parts list.

Electrolux or Westinghouse fridge door left open? The bearing may be worn

A door that closes itself is a big help in a busy kitchen. On these fridges a bearing with a ramped cam sits at the hinge, so the door's own weight helps it swing back shut. With a worn or broken bearing the door loses that pull and can be left a few centimetres open without anyone noticing. You might see condensation inside, warm milk, ice building in the freezer or a door alarm going off. Sagging, scraping or a clunk when the door shuts are other clues.

Changing the bearing

Unplug the fridge and take everything out of the door bins first. With a helper holding the door, undo the hinge and lift the door clear. Swap the bearing, keeping it the same way round as the old one, then rehang the door and check it closes from partway open and seals flush against the cabinet.
