Douglas P Littleton , CO January 02, 2017 Appliance: General Electric Refrigerator PFSS5NJWASS Failed water dispenser / front control panel The refrigerator / freezer were working ok (still cold, interior lights functioning); but the control panel on the exterior door was dead. Followed the maintenance tip, and checked that there was 12VDC to the panel, so confirmed the panel was the failed part. The panel is a friction fit part, with two tabs at the bottom. Using a flat screwdriver, carefully pry the bottom out; and once it comes forward, it slips out from the slot along the top of the panel. The two electrical connections are easy to slip off (powered off the refrigerator at the breaker to avoid a power spike that would have damaged the new board). Reversed the process to put the new board back in. Great part- exact fit - OEM part. Easy repair project and for a fraction of the price of calling a service company!

David K Green Bay , WI February 12, 2017 Appliance: General Electric Refrigerator PFCS1NJWASS Water dispenser and front controls not working After a phone conversation with appliancepartspros they suggested I replace the interface display on the front of my GE fridge. Since it wasn't a cheap part I asked if it could be returned and appliancepartspros said no problem. No need for a return because it worked! Just a couple plugs to connect and then snap the new panel back in. Great experience. The wife is very happy the fridge is 100% healthy again.
