    Pinball related? No, not at all, but this forum has a lot of professions in it, so I'm hoping someone can help.

    The left panel has slipped down. I can push it up, but in time, it slips back down again. Searching the web has turned up nothing.
    I'm sure there is a trick to adjusting/tightening/securing this panel into place, I'm just not aware of it.
    Any help/documentation/manuals would surely be appreciated.
    It's a Kitchenaid fridge, if that matters.

    Thanks in advance.

    Quoted from Black_Knight:

    It's all about the bottom hinge. Maybe a plastic collar or washer has broken or something, maybe just a screw or two have come loose from the mount.
    Compare it to the one on the right, they are almost certainly the same part/design. Remember there may be a plastic part that is inserted up in the door itself.
    The doors are very easy to take off to get an unobstructed view of the bottom. Take the screws off the the upper hinge and lift the door off.

    Thanks for your help.
    If I try to move the left door up or down by the fridge door itself, it does not move, so I don't think anything on the fridge itself it broken or out of alignment.
    I can physically move the panel up and down, so I'm assuming something on the panel that attaches to the fridge door needs to be re-secured.
    Thanks again for your help.
