Questions & Answers

For Ge Water Tank Plastic Tube (Part Number: OEM6195555)

1 Answer

Jack, The water line enters the door thru the bottom. Open the door and remove the kickplate and you will find the water line. Unfortunately, this line is foamed into the door liner and is not replaceable by itself. If the line is freezing in the door the only options are opening the door and then let the line thaw or a door replacement.

Walter, you may want to check the dispenser line to ensure that it is clear and that it is positioned properly (if the tubing had pressure applied where it comes out of the bottom of the door, it can cause improper alignment). From there you may want to check water pressure. If all of these check good, then the door [WR78X11098] would have to be replaced according to the parts diagram to get a new dispenser line.

Carlos, This sounds like it is a frozen water line that is causing the unit to not dispense water. If the unit was built between January 2003 and January 2007 and has a serial number between AF and AM then you would need to install the dispenser tube heater part number WR49X10173. If it does not meet the criteria then the issue will be that the door will have to be replaced.

Franny, To install this tube you will need to make sure that you have at least 1 5/16" to 5/16" adapter. You will then need to pull the unit out and shut the water off. Remove the cover over the compressor. remove the water valve and disconnect the tubing from the valve of the tube that split. Go to the front of the unit and remove the crisper drawers and crisper shelving. Cut pull the water line through that is split and cut it below where it connects to the water tank leaving enough room for the connector so about 2 to 3 inches left. Once this is done you connect the 5/16" connector to the tubing off the tank and the new tubing that you are installing and push through the floor and reconnect to the water valve. and reassembly the unit.

John, You will want to check the water system to make sure that there are no leaks anywhere. The only way for this issue to occur is if there is air getting into the line which would normally be caused by a leaking issue.
