General Electric Refrigerator SDL20KCSABS Ice maker not making ice

The Water Inlet Valve is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is responsible for controlling the flow of water into the refrigerator’s ice maker and water dispenser. The valve opens and closes to allow the right amount of water to fill the ice maker tray or to dispense water from the refrigerator door.

Over time, the water inlet valve can wear out or become damaged due to mineral deposits, corrosion, or electrical issues. A faulty valve can lead to problems with the water supply, affecting the refrigerator’s ability to produce ice or dispense water properly.

Symptoms of a bad water inlet valve include:

• No water or ice production
• Water dispenser not working
• Leaks or drips around the valve or inside the refrigeratorStrange noises coming from the valve area

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

Please note: You may also need to order an adapter. For the adapter to convert the male connector from rectangular to oval use part number WR29X10049. Water valve in kit is part# WR57X10033.

The GE refrigerator water filter is an OEM replacement part responsible for ensuring the quality of the water dispensed on GE Profile top and bottom freezer refrigerators. It is responsible for purifying the water before it reaches your glass or ice maker, providing you with clean and safe drinking water directly from your refrigerator. To maintain optimal water quality and ensure the filter's effectiveness, it is recommended to replace the filter every 6 months or when the rated capacity of 750 gallons is reached.

Over time, the water filter can become clogged with sediment, reducing its effectiveness. Regular use and the accumulation of minerals and contaminants can lead to the need for replacement.

Symptoms of a bad water filter include:

• Reduced water flow from the dispenser
• Ice cubes with an unusual taste or odor
• The filter indicator light staying on
• Visible particles in the water or ice

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models. For the best performance, it is recommended to replace the water filter every six months or as indicated by the filter change light on your refrigerator.

The Temperature Sensor is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators, designed to accurately monitor and relay the temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer compartments to the electronic control board. By detecting the slightest changes in internal temperature, the sensor allows the control board to make real-time adjustments to the cooling system, activating the compressor and fans as needed to maintain optimal conditions for food preservation.

Over time, the temperature sensor can fail due to electrical issues, exposure to moisture, or general wear and tear. A malfunctioning sensor can lead to improper temperature regulation, affecting the efficiency of the refrigerator and the freshness of stored food.

Symptoms of a bad Temperature Sensor include:

• The refrigerator or freezer not maintaining the set temperature 
• The appliance running continuously or more frequently than normal
• Inaccurate temperature readings displayed  

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
