I was able to fix this myself and at a big savings getting the handle from AppliancePartsPros.com versus from GE...about half the price. I was asked at the time of purchase if I wanted to buy this brush (to clean the grids under the refrigerator) that was on sale and I said sure. Boy was I happy to get that brush. It is very long and I ran in back and forth under the refrigerator and got all kinds of dust off them. It wasn't just the dirt under the refrigerator, because I had recently moved my refrigerator and cleaned under it. Amazing what was on those grids and I hope it will help my refrigerator run longer.
