Frigidaire Refrigerator PLHT189CSBF Leaking

The Water Valve is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is crucial for controlling the flow of water to the ice maker and water dispenser. This solenoid-operated valve responds to commands from the refrigerator's electronic control to supply water when needed, ensuring efficient operation and reliable delivery of ice and water.

Symptoms of a bad Water Valve include:

• No water being dispensed
• The ice maker not producing ice or producing very small ice cubes
• Water leaking from the valve

Causes of a bad water valve can include mineral deposits blocking the valve, electrical failures preventing the valve from opening, or wear and tear from normal use leading to leaks or operational failures.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

The Defrost Timer is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is an essential electronic component that controls the automated defrost cycle of the refrigerator. The defrost timer monitors run times and temperatures to determine when to initiate the defrost process. It allows the refrigerator to operate efficiently by preventing excessive ice buildup. This defrost timer is designed to run for 30 minutes every 8 hours. 

Symptoms of a bad defrost timer include: 

• Inability to initiate or maintain the defrost cycle 
• Excessive ice buildup in the freezer compartment
• Erratic temperature fluctuations
• The refrigerator running excessively or displaying other performance issues

Causes of a bad defrost timer can be normal wear and tear over time. Environmental factors like power surges or fluctuations may also impact the electronic timer functionality. 

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

Inlet valve to icemaker

The Icemaker Fill Tube is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. This tube is responsible for directing water from the water supply line to the icemaker, allowing for the production of ice. It ensures that water is efficiently delivered to the icemaker without leaks or blockages.

You should replace the icemaker fill tube if it becomes damaged or blocked. Causes of a bad fill tube can include mineral deposits or debris clogging the tube, cracks or leaks from wear and tear, or damage from mishandling during maintenance.

Symptoms of a bad icemaker fill tube include:

• No ice production
• Leaks around the icemaker area
• Ice cubes being smaller than usual
• Water overflowing or not reaching the icemaker

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
