Nancy S Pewaukee , WI January 25, 2016 Needed to replace the water filter in my refrigerator but the filter didn't fit and from what the other one looked like i needed an adapter When the adapter arrived, I wasn't sure it was the right one as it looked completely different. The fridge is old, and I inherited it when I moved in 4 years ago and it hadn't been replaced since I wasn't aware it needed changing. I inserted the adapter into the new filter, aligned the arrow on the filter to the one on the fridge panel and turned the filter accordingly and it seemed to fit fine. I made sure it was tight enough and it seems to be fine now. I ran the water from the door spigot for a few minutes as directed. No discoloration in the water and it flowed just fine. Then tested the ice cube maker and this was fine also. I'm hopeful this has corrected the issue and will be able to replace it again when needed. 5 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
