Why your True back bar cooler is door not sealing

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before booking a repair, wipe the gasket clean and check it for obvious tears, warping, or trapped debris. Also, check whether the door still sits flush when closed, or visibly gaps on one side. Once you've ruled that out, a door that's out of alignment usually needs the hinges shimmed or replaced to spec — done wrong, it can crack the door skin.
