How to Adjust the Door Cam on a GE Profile

A door cam on a General Electric Profile refrigerator is placed under the hinge and helps the door open and close properly. The cam also keeps the door level. Over time the door cam can wear down, causing your refrigerator door to hang unevenly. If this is the case, the door cam needs to be replaced with a new one to return the door to its proper height.
