Ge WR17X11845 Cover Tank Water Coil OEM Part

After researching elsewhere and not getting much help or confidence I would get the right part or even be able to do the repair myself, I stumbled upon this website and found it much more helpful than even GE's site. After watching videos here on similar fridges I ordered the part for my fridge and got the line replaced in about 30 mins (really a whole morning but that was to clean out and clean my fridge). I found that whoever had installed the first supply had routed it next to the compressor which is hot and, while it did not melt the line, it definitely browned it and likely caused it to dry out and crack. I routed it a diff way this time so that should not happen again. One other tip is that I didnt get a snug fit in the valve connector at first try so makes sure you test the water dispenser with a couple full glasses before putting the fridge back or you'll regret it!

Disconnect power and turn off water line. Remove back panel (10 screws). Remove lower front grill (2 screws, 2 clips). Clean/vacuum all areas. Check positioning of the 2 water lines (back and underneath) for reference. One goes to the valve coupling in back. The other routes underneath to the front coupling by the left door. Remove broken line from valve coupling and door coupling (Simply push the coupling ring toward its body and pull the line out). Pull out the food shelves for clearance. Loosen the 2 screws holding the cover to the coiled line ((inside, right lower wall). Remove cover. Pull out old lines/coil through rubber gasket. Clean surrounding area. Insert new lines/coil into rubber gasket and push/pull them through until the coiled line sits correctly against the inside wall (lines feed from the bottom of the coil toward the rear). Affix cover with its 2 screws. Re-connect water lines (short line to valve, long line to door coupling at front bottom). Make sure both new water line ends are cut clean and square. Push each line into its coupling until it stops (fully seated) at about a 1/4". Re-apply power and water to check operation. Let the water run through the dispenser a bit to ensure all dirt passes through. Good. Disconnect power. Replace back panel, front grill, and inner shelves. Clean up. Return power.
