Rich Chin for Model Number Kitchen Aid Refrigerator KSRP25FTMS01

I have two questions. I replaced water filter Whirlpool 4396841 with Everydrop 3 (EDR3RXD1). The old filter was completely dry and light. Appears to have no water in it. Was it not inserted completely in? The filter may still be good. :. Next question: The filter cap (2260502 2260518) is the old cap. I watched the video for installing the cap to the filter. It looks very straightforward. I can’t seem to get the cap on the filter. Seems like it doesn’t fit. It doesn’t snap into place when turn counterclockwise. Nothing seems broken. I order another cap. It’s the same part numere. Any thoughts?

Rich, " The old filter was completely dry and light. Appears to have no water in it. Was it not inserted completely in?" Most likely it was not installed and seated properly, so the water would have bypassed the filter. As for the cap, you may want to remove the lower kickplate grille to insure the cap and filtrer are inserted and installed properly. Recheck and make sure you have the correct parts EDR3RXD1 / 4396841 Water Filter, WP2260518B / 2260502B Black Cap, Water Filter.

Joseph, this is an indicator that the bypass in the filter housing is stuck open and causing water to flow into the housing. You will want to replace the filter housing [WPW10121140].

Janet, the only purpose of the filter cover is just cosmetic, it does not effect the operation of the filter.

Carolyn, The water filter for this unit will be EDR3RXD1 and the cap for the filter will be WP2260518B. If the filter is does not seem to be popping out then take the kickplate off and try to take the filter out. If it feels light like there is no water in it then the filter was never pushed completely in and would still be good.

Max, If you remove the kick plate from the unit, then push the button for the filter you should be able to remove it. You may have to use a pair of channel locks to grab the filter and pull out if it is stuck.
