Merzie November 09, 2015 for Model Number MSD2574VEM10 Have used with a water filter for 5 years. No problems. Suddenly, water dispenser operates very slowly. Replaced filter. Still slow. Removed water filter and water dispensed normally BUT refrigerator motor ran continuously (it was a different sound than normal). (1) Can this model be used without a filter? (2) Do I need a service call? Thank you very much.
1 Answer Hello Merzie. It sounds like the filter head will need to be replaced on the unit. You can bypass the filter in the unit. Read More...

Richard October 30, 2015 for Model Number GSS26C4XXW03 We have to install a whole house water filtration system. Since we would not need a filter, can I take the water filter out of our refrigerator or is there a plug for that purpose.
Jay L October 21, 2015 for Model Number Kenmore Coldspot fridge model 106.44433603 We added reverse osmosis to our house. I want to bypass the fridge water filter and was told by Sears that I need a bypass plug. So I bought what they said I need but it is a short little plug. The filter I need to replace is a long filter that goes under the fridge through the grille. I don't see how to get this little plug into the under the fridge area. All "how to" videos on the internet show a filter being replaced that is in the fresh compartment of the refrigerator, not the area under the fridge.

Mark September 24, 2015 for Model Number WRX988SIBM The water dispensed from the fridge dispenser appears clear. When ice is dispensed from the fridge, it adds a lot of whitish to semi clear "floaties" to the water. The filter is about 2 months old. We flushed the system as directed and do not have the issue when just dispensing the water. It is only when we use the ice from the fridge. This is a newly purchased appliance (2 months old). Is there something causing these floaties from the ice?
1 Answer Hello Mark. Check the tubes going to the icemaker and the icemaker its self. Either could cause the white particles. Read More...
