Haier Refrigerator has frost or moisture buildup around the door
If you see frost or moisture building up around the center mullion flap between the doors, the most likely cause is a mullion heater that no longer heats to melt that condensation. Start by testing the mullion heater for electrical continuity with a multimeter; if it reads open, replace the heater. Next most common issues are mechanical: a damaged or misaligned door support or door guide can prevent the flap from forming a tight seal, and a twisted, torn, or brittle door gasket will let warm, humid air in and cause frost to form. Occasionally the problem is simply that a door or freezer was left open long enough for moisture to collect; that frost should clear after a full defrost cycle once the seal is restored. If you need parts, enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to find the exact replacement mullion heater, door support, door guide, or gasket that fits your refrigerator and get back to a dry, properly sealed fridge door.
01 - Haier Refrigerator Mullion Heater
A defective mullion heater flap may not be able to heat up periodically to melt any frost or moisture that forms on the flap due to increases in room humidity. You can use a multimeter to test the mullion heater for electrical continuity to determine if the component is working. If the mullion heater has no electrical continuity you should replace it with a new one.

02 - Haier Refrigerator Door Support
If the mullion heater flap has frost or moisture buildup, it's possible the door suport is damaged or misaligned and not allowing the flap to form a tight seal between the refrigerator doors. Inspect the door support for wear or damage and replace if necessary.
Common
03 - Haier Refrigerator Door Guide
If the mullion heater flap has frost or moisture buildup, it's possible the door guide is damaged or misaligned and not allowing the flap to form a tight seal between the refrigerator doors. Inspect the door guide for wear or damage and replace if necessary.
Common
04 - Haier Refrigerator Door Gasket
A door gasket should form an airtight seal around the appliance's frame to keep the cold air in and the warm air out. If the door gasket is twisted or torn, gaps can form that will allow warm air in, resulting in the freezer not freezing properly. Inspect the door gasket for any damage and replace with a new one if necessary.
Common
05 - Refrigerator or freezer door left open
If the freezer or refrigerator door was left open for an extended period of time (more than 4 hours), frost may have accumulated on the food and around the door opening. The frost should go away after the door is closed and the refrigerator goes through a defrost cycle.
