The GE Refrigerator Water Filter RPWFE is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This advanced water filter is crucial for removing contaminants and impurities from your refrigerator's water supply, ensuring you have access to clean, fresh-tasting drinking water and ice. Utilizing a state-of-the-art filtration process, the RPWFE filter is capable of reducing various contaminants, including lead, chlorine, and five pharmaceuticals, providing peace of mind about the quality of your water.

Over time, water filters can become clogged with particles and contaminants, leading to a decrease in water flow and a reduction in the effectiveness of filtration. It's important to replace your refrigerator water filter as recommended by the manufacturer, typically every six months, to ensure optimal performance and maintain the quality of your water.

Symptoms of a filter needing replacement include:

• Reduced water flow from the dispenser.
• Unpleasant taste or odor in the water or ice. 
• The refrigerator's water filter indicator light turns on

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

The Freezer Evaporator Fan Motor and Felt Seal is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This component is essential for circulating cold air throughout the freezer compartment, ensuring even cooling and preventing frost buildup. The felt seal helps to reduce vibrations and noise from the motor, enhancing the overall performance and quiet operation of the freezer.

Causes of a bad fan motor can include electrical issues, wear and tear from regular use, or physical damage. A malfunctioning fan motor can lead to inadequate cooling and temperature inconsistencies in the freezer.

Symptoms of a bad freezer evaporator fan motor and felt seal include:

• The freezer not cooling properly or having warm spots
• Unusual noises such as rattling or humming coming from the freezer
• The fan not running or running intermittently
• Frost buildup around the evaporator area

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This clip secures the evaporator thermistor to the evaporator tubing so the control can read coil temperature accurately. Replacing a damaged or missing clip helps restore correct cooling and defrost performance by keeping the sensor firmly in place. What it does:

• Holds the evaporator thermistor tightly against the evaporator coil/tubing for accurate temperature sensing
• Supports proper cooling regulation and defrost cycle timing
• A loose or misplaced sensor may show temperature swings, long run times, or frost buildup on the evaporator
• Restores correct sensor placement after repairs or when the original clip is lost or broken

• 1 evaporator thermistor clip

• Unplug the refrigerator; interior metal edges and fins are sharp—wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove the evaporator cover to access the sensor; note the original sensor location and orientation
• Transfer the thermistor into the new clip and attach it at the same spot so the sensor makes firm contact; do not pinch wires
• Reinstall panels, keep wiring clear of the fan, and restore power

Conduction heater for the freezer compartment that melts frost from the evaporator during defrost cycles, helping prevent ice buildup and maintain consistent cooling. Replaces a failed freezer conduction heater to restore defrost function. What it does:

• Heats the evaporator area during defrost cycles to melt accumulated frost and ice.
• Helps prevent excessive ice buildup that can reduce cooling efficiency.
• Common symptoms of a failing heater: visible ice/frost on the evaporator or freezer interior and inconsistent freezer temperatures.
• Designed as a replacement conduction heater for compatible GE freezer evaporator assemblies.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electric shock.
• Access typically requires removing the freezer evaporator cover or rear panel.
• Handle the element carefully to avoid damage.

The Defrost Thermostat is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This part is a safety device attached to the evaporator coil or nearby, and it functions by monitoring the temperature of the refrigerator's coils during the defrost cycle. When the coils reach a specific temperature, the defrost thermostat shuts off the defrost heater to prevent the refrigerator from overheating. 

Causes of damage to the Defrost Thermostat can include wear and tear over time, exposure to extreme temperatures that degrade its responsiveness, or electrical issues that cause it to fail. 

Symptoms of a bad Defrost Thermostat include:

• The refrigerator or freezer compartment is too warm, indicating that the defrost system is not working correctly
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils that does not go away 
• The refrigerator cycling on and off more frequently or running longer than it should 

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Freezer Defrost Heater is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is responsible for melting any frost or ice buildup on the evaporator coils within the freezer. By periodically heating the coils, this component prevents excessive ice formation, ensuring the freezer maintains its efficiency and proper cooling performance.

Causes of a bad defrost heater can include electrical malfunctions, such as a blown fuse or wiring issues, and wear and tear over time.

Symptoms of a bad defrost heater include:

• Excessive frost buildup in the freezer
• The freezer not maintaining the correct temperature
• Increased energy consumption due to the compressor working harder
• Water leakage inside the freezer during the defrost cycle

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This holder element assembly secures the appliance's heating element in the correct position so the element stays stable for consistent operation and safe performance. It's a direct-fit replacement for worn or damaged holders. What it does:

• Secures and supports the heating element inside the appliance to maintain proper alignment
• Prevents element sagging or contact with other components that can cause noise or arcing
• Helps reduce vibration and movement that can lead to intermittent heating
• Common symptom: visible holder damage, loose or shifted element, unusual noise during operation

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off breaker) before starting any repair
• Allow appliance and element to fully cool before handling
• Handle the element and holder carefully to avoid bending or damaging the element
