Parts for Ge GIE18DTNERBB: Ice Maker Parts

Specs: 8-32 ca hxw 1/2

The Grommet and Gasket Assembly is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is designed to create a secure seal around various refrigerator components, preventing air leaks and ensuring efficient operation. This assembly typically includes both the grommet and gasket, which work together to maintain the refrigerator's internal temperature and prevent moisture and contaminants from entering.

You should replace the grommet and gasket assembly if it becomes worn out or damaged. Causes of a bad grommet and gasket assembly can include regular wear and tear, exposure to temperature fluctuations, or physical damage that leads to cracks or deformities. A compromised seal can result in inefficient cooling and increased energy consumption.

Symptoms of a bad grommet and gasket assembly include:

• Air leaks around the refrigerator door or components
• Increased energy bills due to inefficient cooling
• Frost or condensation buildup inside the refrigerator
• Difficulty in maintaining the desired temperature

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

The Ice Bucket is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is a component that stores ice from the icemaker in the freezer compartment. The ice bucket allows for convenient access to ice on demand, fitting seamlessly within the refrigerator design.

Symptoms of a bad ice bucket include:

• Cracks or damage to the plastic material
• Inability to easily remove or insert the bucket  
• Ice falling out of the bucket improperly
• Missing parts like the handle

Note: This is just the ice bucket. It does not include other ice maker components.

Replace your worn ice bucket before further issues arise like ice spilling in the freezer. This OEM GE part restores your refrigerator’s storage and access to ice. It is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore refrigerators.
 

The water valve is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is located behind the fresh food door and controls the flow of water to the ice maker and water dispenser features. 

Symptoms of a bad water valve include:

• Leaks or drips from the valve area  
• Failure of the ice maker or water dispenser to operate as expected
• Inability to regulate water flow or sensor controls 

Causes of failure can be mineral buildup interfering with valve operation over time, crimps or kinks in supply line tubing, or worn-out seals and diaphragms within the valve mechanism.

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

This plastic water tube routes water inside your refrigerator to the dispenser and/or ice maker. Replacing a cracked, brittle, or leaking tube restores proper water flow and helps prevent leaks and water damage.

• Directs water between components such as the inlet valve, reservoir, door, dispenser, or ice maker (varies by model)
• Maintains a sealed, food-grade path to prevent leaks and air intrusion
• Damage can lead to puddles behind/under the fridge or inside the fresh food compartment
• Common symptoms: slow/no dispenser flow, ice maker not filling or making small cubes, visible cracks/kinks

• Unplug the refrigerator and shut off the household water supply; relieve line pressure at the dispenser
• Note tube routing and connection points before removal; avoid sharp bends and kinks during install
• Cut tube ends square and fully seat into compression or push-in fittings
• Restore water, check all joints for leaks, and run water to purge air from the system

This replacement clamp secures lines or components inside the refrigerator, keeping them properly routed and stable. Replacing a broken or missing clamp helps reduce vibration and prevents rubbing damage or leaks from loose tubing. What it does:

• Holds tubing or wiring harnesses securely in place inside the refrigerator
• Maintains correct routing and clearance to prevent chafing and wear
• Helps reduce vibration and rattling noises from unsecured lines
• Can help prevent drips or leaks when used to retain water tubing

• 1 clamp

• Unplug the refrigerator and, if working with water lines, shut off the water supply
• Note the original clamp orientation and routing; take a photo before removal
• Install the new clamp in the same location, securing lines without pinching or over-stressing them
• Restore power (and water if applicable) and check that lines are secure; inspect for leaks if used on water tubing

This small hardware clamp is used on select refrigerators to secure tubing or wiring to the cabinet or frame. Replaces a missing or damaged clamp to keep lines stable, reduce vibration, and help prevent rubbing or leaks.

• Secures small water tubing or electrical harnesses along the cabinet/frame
• Helps prevent vibration, rattling, and abrasion of lines
• Maintains correct routing to keep lines clear of moving or hot components
• Common clues: loose or noisy lines, chafing marks, or moisture near tubing connections

• Unplug the appliance and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Note the original location and routing; take a photo for reference
• Reuse the existing mounting screw/fastener if required; tighten only enough to hold without crushing tubing
• Restore power and water, then run and inspect for vibration and leaks

This ice maker fill cup directs water from the refrigerator fill tube into the ice maker mold so each cycle fills correctly. Replacing a damaged cup restores consistent ice production and helps prevent water spills. What it does:

• Channels water from the fill tube into the ice maker mold for proper tray filling.
• Prevents water from dripping into the freezer compartment when intact.
• A cracked, warped, or missing fill cup can cause underfilled ice cubes, overflowing molds, or water pooling in the freezer.
• Compatible with common top/front-mounted household ice makers that use a separate plastic fill cup.

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting work.
• Remove the ice bin or ice maker assembly as needed to access the fill cup.
• The cup typically snaps or slides into place; use gentle pressure and avoid forcing plastic tabs.
