General Electric Refrigerator Parts

The GE refrigerator water filter is an OEM replacement part responsible for ensuring the quality of the water dispensed on GE Profile top and bottom freezer refrigerators. It is responsible for purifying the water before it reaches your glass or ice maker, providing you with clean and safe drinking water directly from your refrigerator. To maintain optimal water quality and ensure the filter's effectiveness, it is recommended to replace the filter every 6 months or when the rated capacity of 750 gallons is reached.

Over time, the water filter can become clogged with sediment, reducing its effectiveness. Regular use and the accumulation of minerals and contaminants can lead to the need for replacement.

Symptoms of a bad water filter include:

• Reduced water flow from the dispenser
• Ice cubes with an unusual taste or odor
• The filter indicator light staying on
• Visible particles in the water or ice

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models. For the best performance, it is recommended to replace the water filter every six months or as indicated by the filter change light on your refrigerator.

This helix lock plate secures the ice bucket auger (helix) in the dispenser assembly so ice can move reliably to the chute. Replacing a worn plate restores positive drive and helps reduce jams, slippage, and grinding noises. What it does:

• Locks the helix to the drive so the auger rotates under motor power
• Maintains alignment of the auger/helix stack inside the ice bucket
• Helps prevent slippage that causes weak or no ice dispensing
• Can help address symptoms like no ice dispensing, auger not turning, or loud clicking/grinding from the bucket

• 1 helix lock plate

• Unplug the refrigerator and remove the ice bucket before servicing
• Note the order and orientation of blades, spacers, and hardware during disassembly
• Transfer/install the plate in the same orientation; tighten fasteners snug, not overtight
• Crusher blades and edges are sharp—wear cut-resistant gloves

The Main Control Board Assembly is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. The control board monitors critical operating functions like temperature regulation, defrost cycles, lighting, and user interface controls. Over time, continuous usage can cause mechanical or electrical faults within the board.

Symptoms of a bad main control board include:

• Erratic temperature fluctuations inside the fridge and freezer
• Inability to change temperature settings
• Door alarm failure to engage after excessive opening
• Lights, fans, or other internal components ceasing to operate

Causes of control board failure can stem from manufacturing defects, corrosion of electronic components from humidity/leaks, or damage due to power surges.
