Guy January 22, 2016 for Model Number GSC25C5EYW01 On a whirlpool side by side fridge when you remove the filter in the top right corner the water is re-directed at the filter head housing. Does it also bypass the water cooling coil? the water and ice dispenser in the door still work without a filter.

Steve November 22, 2015 for Model Number ED5VHEXVB00 I've done quite a few water filter replacements with no problems. Around the time the filter would need replacing a month ago the water almost stopped flowing to the door and ice maker. Removing the filter the water flows in a strong steam. Installing a new filter and the water is back to almost nothing. While I had the filter out I noticed water start to flow from under the front where the filter is inserted. I looked in the area where the filter goes and it was dripping out of one of the inlets. What is the problem? Can the filter be bypassed? If I can bypass, do I need a plug? If I need a plug, is it something I can do myself? Thanks very much!
1 Answer Steve, This unit does not require a bypass plug for the filter. If the unit is leaking with the filter out and with the filter in there is a flow issue then the filter head is faulty and would need to be replaced. Read More...
