• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping the head
• Do not overtighten; stop when the component is snug to prevent damage
• If screw threads are damaged, replace with the correct thread size rather than forcing
• Disconnect power before working on electrical components or panels that expose wiring

The Icebox Door Latch is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. This latch helps securely close and lock the icebox door to prevent it from accidentally opening during use. 

Symptoms of a bad icebox door latch include:

• The icebox door not closing or latching properly
• The door popping or popping open unintentionally 
• Cracks or damage that compromise the structural integrity of the latch

Over time and with repeated use, latches can become worn down and fail to function as intended.

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

The Cover Latch is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This part serves as a cover for the latch handle, ensuring a seamless look for the appliance while protecting the latch handle from damage and wear.

Causes of a bad Cover Latch can include wear and tear over time, impact or mishandling that leads to cracks or breaks, or general deterioration due to prolonged use.  

Symptoms of a bad Cover Latch include:

• Visible cracks or breaks
• The latch handle not being properly covered
• Difficulty in operating the latch handle
• Loose or missing cover latch

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

The Ice Box Door Assy is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is the complete door assembly housing the storage bins for ice cubes on the fresh food door. 

The Ice Box Door Assy keeps ice conveniently accessible while maintaining cold air containment in the fresh food section.

Causes can involve normal wear over time from frequent use. Accidental dings or impacts can also damage fresh food door components.  

Symptoms of a bad Ice Box Door Assy include:

• Difficulty opening or closing the ice box door
• Improper sealing letting warm air enter the freezer
• Damage or cracks in the plastic door assembly

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

This spring feeler arm is the replacement sensing arm used with the refrigerator ice maker assembly to detect ice level and help actuate the ice-making mechanism. Restores proper ice sensing and helps prevent overfill or stoppage. What it does:

• Acts as the ice maker's feeler/bail arm to detect when the ice bin is full or empty.
• Triggers the ice maker to stop or continue cycles based on ice level.
• Helps prevent overfilling and reduces ice production problems caused by a bent or broken arm.
• Can stop erratic ice maker behavior when the original arm is damaged or worn.

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before beginning any repair.
• Handle the arm carefully and inspect the ice maker mounting points for damage before installation.
• Reuse factory hardware if undamaged; replace any stripped or missing fasteners.

This ice maker feeler arm senses the ice level in the bin and controls when the icemaker starts and stops. Replacing a bent, missing, or stuck arm restores correct shutoff and helps prevent overfilling or no-ice conditions.

• Monitors the ice bucket level and raises/lowers to start or stop ice production
• Shuts the icemaker off when the bin is full; allows production when lowered
• Common symptoms: ice maker won't stop making ice/overflows, no ice when the arm is stuck up, loose or missing arm
• Restores proper on/off control of the icemaker cycle

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the ice bin and, the icemaker assembly to access the arm
• Transfer any reusable hardware; seat the arm fully in its pivot points so it moves freely
• Restore power, lower the arm to the On position, and allow time for the icemaker to cycle

The Icemaker is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It is responsible for producing and dispensing ice cubes, ensuring a constant supply of fresh ice for your beverages and other cooling needs.

Symptoms of a bad icemaker include:

• Not producing any ice or producing insufficient quantities
• Ice cubes that are misshapen, clumped together, or have an off-taste
• Leaks or water buildup in the icemaker compartment
• Strange noises or grinding sounds during ice production

Causes of a bad icemaker can include water supply issues, such as low water pressure or a blocked water line, electrical malfunctions, or mechanical problems with the icemaker components, like a faulty ice mold or ejector arm.

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

The Ice Bucket and Crusher is an OEM component for GE side-by-side refrigerators equipped with an internal ice system and ice crusher feature. Located in the freezer section, it provides filtered ice-crushing and storage abilities. Consistent icemaking depends on an intact ice-handling mechanism. 

Symptoms of a faulty bucket and crusher include:

• Gradual accumulation of uncrushed ice cubes within the storage bin  
• Drive motor straining or temporarily ceasing during heavy usage
• Partial blockage of ice chute restricting flow into glasses

Causes range from mineral contamination slowing mechanical components to wear from constant high-volume usage dulling edges or linkages over time. Regular cleaning helps but replacement maintains long-term efficiency.

Replacing with this genuine GE bucket and crusher restores optimized ice handling performance through engineered durability and precision mechanisms. Compatible replacements suit Hotpoint, RCA, or Kenmore models seeking automated, whole-home ice production and retrieval cycles without interruption.
