Symptoms of a bad Ice Door Assembly include:

• Frost or ice buildup around the dispenser area
• Ice escaping from the dispenser when not in use
• Failure to dispense ice
• Noise during operation indicating misalignment or malfunction

Causes of a bad Ice Door Assembly can include mechanical wear from frequent use, failure of the spring mechanism or solenoid that operates the door, or damage to the sealing surfaces that leads to air leaks.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Water Tank Plastic Tube is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It functions as a conduit, transporting water from the water tank to the dispenser and ice maker, ensuring a steady flow of water for these features.

You should replace this plastic tube if it becomes damaged or worn out. Causes of a bad water tank plastic tube can include wear and tear over time, blockages from mineral deposits, or physical damage from mishandling or kinks.

Symptoms of a bad water tank plastic tube include:

• Leaks or drips from the tube
• Reduced or no water flow to the dispenser or ice maker
• Visible cracks or damage to the tube
• Air bubbles in the water line

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Water Valve is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This valve controls the flow of water to the refrigerator’s ice maker and water dispenser, ensuring a consistent supply of water when needed. It plays a critical role in the efficient functioning of the ice-making and water dispensing systems.

You should replace the water valve if it becomes faulty or damaged. Causes of a bad water valve can include mineral buildup from hard water, electrical issues, or wear and tear from regular use. A malfunctioning valve can lead to disruptions in water flow and the operation of the ice maker and dispenser.

Symptoms of a bad water valve include:

• No water or ice being dispensed
• Leaking water from the valve area
• Ice maker not filling with water
• Low water pressure from the dispenser

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Door Recess Spring is an OEM replacement part for GE side-by-side refrigerators. It sits within the icemaker door frame to control movement and allow smooth closing/opening of the access point.

Causes of a bad icemaker door recess spring include wear and tear of thin metal coils repeatedly compressing over many years of filling cycles. Exposure to humidity intrusions from melting ice accumulates oxidation shortening spring elasticity. 

Symptoms of a bad icemaker door recess spring include: 

• Difficulty opening and shutting the icemaker access door securely
• Excessive slamming noise caused by abrupt closing
• Sagging or improper alignment of the door against the frame  
• Struggles retaining positioning of the transparent plastic doorway
