You have to send model number,on some bottom mounts there is a metal striker on the door that hits the switches,sometime that gets bent back,all you have to do is readjust the striker by bending it if screws aren't loose but i don't know what kind of bottom mount you have

    try unplugging the fridge for 5 to 10 minutes to reset board.or try this

    Press and hold the "Lock/Alarm" button on the control panel until the indicator light turns off. This shuts off the door alarm and it will not beep if the refrigerator doors are left open.

    Reactivate the alarm by pressing and holding the "Lock/Alarm" button until the indicator light turns on.

    send model number

    try tilting fridge back by adjusting front legs up so doors close better,also i guess this is a problem with this fridge,i looked it up online and some people have changed computer board to fix this and others had to call factory and swap fridge for a new one,i'd call the factory first to see about any recalls and see who does thier warranty work in your area

How to make the freezer door on a kenmore elite 74033 tilt

Refrig of the year: Kenmore Elite 74033 Refrigerator
Consumer Reports Rated: Excellent

Hello Charles,

Just when I'm thinking Sears SERVICE is NOT some sort
of sad/bad joke... you put in a Kenmore Elite Model number...

continued search found your Owners Manual... Pages 10 & 16 are what you want

The front should be slightly higher than the rear to aid in door closing... (page 10)

Your refrigerator has two front leveling legs-one on the right and one on the left. Adjust the legs to alter the tilt from front-to-back or side-to-side. If your refrigerator seems unsteady, or you want the doors to close more easily, adjust the refrigerator's tilt using the instructions below: NOTE: Tools Required: 11/16" wrench or flat blade screwdriver.
1. Turn the leveling leg to the left to raise that side of the refrigerator or to the right to lower it. It may take several turns of the leveling leg to adjust the tilt of the refrigerator.
NOTE: Having someone push backward against the top of the refrigerator takes some weight off of the leveling legs. This makes it easier to adjust the legs.
2. Open both doors again and check to make sure that they close easily. If the doors do not close easily, tilt the refrigerator slightly more to the rear by turning both leveling legs to the left. It may take several more turns, and you should turn both leveling legs the same amount... (page 16)

`` After that...

All you have to do to maximize that efficiency is keep the closure area free of pizza boxes, ice cubes or errant frozen food bags.

Hope this was helpful...
