Video Transcript

All you’ll need are a pair of long-nose pliers and a Phillips screwdriver.

Firstly, remove any items and then the shelves from your door.

We need to remove the two screws on the door bracket shown here. Once unscrewed, remove the door of the hinge bush you need to replace. Ask for help if the door is heavy.

Remove the old hinge bush from your door with your long-nose pliers as shown. 

For the hinge bush to fit correctly, line up the notch on the hinge bush with the hole on the fridge door. Then give it a few taps to ensure it’s secured tightly. 

Now re-attach the fridge door. Again, asking for help if the door is heavy.

Re-screw the two screws on the metal bracket.

Then, re-attach your shelves and place anything back in the fridge.

That’s it, your new hinge bush is all set to go!
