Rick Rohas for Model Number GE Refrigerator PSHS6RGXCDSS

When the ice maker calls for water, a loud vibration or rattle lasts for the length of time it takes to fill the ice maker tray. I cannot tell what component is causing that. Several years ago I changed the water dispenser assembly that holds the filter, as the refrigerator made a similar rattling noise when we tried to get water dispensed from the door. Please let me know what I need to replace so I can order the part. Thank you.

Rick, It would be recommended to check to make sure that the water tubing is secured to the back of the refrigerator as this could be the issue. There could also be an issue with the water valve causing the water line to jump or chatter.

Coros, the manufacturer does specifically list the filter housing WR17X22072 for your model. In regards to improperly sized fittings, the manufacturer has not notated any information on this and therefore it should fit properly.

Paco, this is the correct filter housing assembly for your model. There should be one end that has a 3/8" threaded male connector for the incoming water line from the house and an end with a 3/8" nut while the tubing has a beveled end. Both sides are designed for a standard inlet thread and the beveled end should fit onto the threaded inlet of the valve.

Tracey, check the supply line that feeds water to the refrigerator, if it is not rated for a refrigerator, it may give off a plastic taste. Also, if there is a food taste, there may be something in the cabnet that is being circulated and absorbed into the ice. Normally, the tubing that is built into the refrigerator is not something that puts off any kind of odor.
