Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.H2, to reverse the door swing on your Frigidaire 20.3 Cu. Ft. Bottom Freezer Refrigerator (model GRBN2012AF), follow these steps: 1. Remove the Top Hinge Covers: Use a plastic putty knife to detach the left and right top hinge covers. 2. Unscrew the Top Hinge: Remove the three 8 mm screws securing the top hinge. 3. Remove the Refrigerator Door: Carefully lift the refrigerator door off the center hinge pin and set it aside. 4. Remove the Center Hinge Pin: Using an adjustable wrench, unscrew the center hinge pin and set it aside. 5. Remove Plastic Plugs: On the left side of the refrigerator, remove the three plastic plugs using a putty knife. 6. Remove the Center Hinge: Open the freezer drawer to prevent damage. Using a T20 Torx driver, remove the three screws from the center hinge. Flip the center hinge over and install it on the left side of the refrigerator. 7. Install the Center Hinge Pin: Screw in and fully tighten the center hinge pin using an adjustable wrench. 8. Install Plastic Plugs: Locate the three new plastic plugs in the Door Reversal Kit (found in the crisper drawer) and install them on the center right-hand side. 9. Prepare the Refrigerator Door: Flip the refrigerator door over. Remove the screw from the auto-closer hook using a Phillips head screwdriver and set it aside. Pry out the hinge bearing from the door with a flathead screwdriver. Install the bottom hinge bearing on the opposite side of the door. Flip the auto-closer hook over and screw it back in, tightening fully. 10. Apply Grease: Apply ¼ of the grease packet (from the Door Reversal Kit) inside the hole on the door for the top hinge to ensure proper door operation. 11. Reinstall the Refrigerator Door: Lower the refrigerator door onto the center hinge pin at a 90-degree angle, then close the door. Align the holes of the top hinge with the cabinet holes and reinsert the three 8 mm screws. Do not fully tighten the screws. 12. Level the Door: Ensure the door has approximately 0.68 inches (17.5 mm) between the refrigerator door and freezer drawer. Once level, securely tighten the hinge screws. Replace the top hinge covers. 13. Reconnect Power: Plug the refrigerator back into the wall outlet. Note: The Door Reversal Kit, including the necessary parts and grease packet, is typically located in the crisper drawer. Ensure all parts are accounted for before beginning the reversal process. If you need further assistance or encounter any issues during the process, feel free to ask! - Maico
