The MWF Bypass is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. Located within the bottom freezer compartment, the metal water filter bypass fitted assembly is responsible for directing filtered or unfiltered water flow to the ice maker and dispenser.

Causes for replacement may include faulty diverter components obstructing water flow to selections or resulting in water leaks.

Symptoms of a problematic bypass unit include:

• Inability to select filtered or unfiltered water from the dispenser
• Ice maker failure due to lack of water or poor water quality
• Mineral deposits accumulating on internal parts from unfiltered water

This OEM replacement bypass is compatible with GE, Hotpoint, and Profile model refrigerators.

The Icemaker is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is designed to produce ice cubes by automatically filling the ice mold with water, freezing it, and then ejecting the ice into the ice bucket. This part ensures a steady supply of ice for your household needs.

Causes of a bad icemaker can include mechanical wear and tear, electrical failures, or issues with the water supply. Over time, the icemaker’s components can degrade, leading to inconsistent ice production or complete failure.

Symptoms of a bad icemaker include:

• No ice production
• Small, misshapen, or hollow ice cubes
• Ice maker not ejecting ice
• Unusual noises from the ice maker

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

The R134 Drier is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This component plays a critical role in the refrigeration system by removing moisture and contaminants from the refrigerant, ensuring efficient cooling and preventing damage to other parts of the system. It helps maintain the purity and effectiveness of the refrigerant as it cycles through the system.

You should replace the R134 drier if it becomes clogged or damaged. Common causes of a bad drier include wear and tear over time, exposure to moisture, or contamination from other failing components in the refrigeration system.

Symptoms of a bad R134 drier include:

• Reduced cooling efficiency
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• Unusual noises from the refrigeration system
• Increased energy consumption
• Refrigerator not maintaining the set temperature

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

The Lamp Socket is an OEM component specifically designed for GE refrigerator interiors. It provides the connection point for interior lighting.

The lamp socket mounts near the top of the interior and includes contacts that receive and hold the installed light bulb firmly in position. Proper socket operation enables convenient and dependable interior illumination. 

Causes of a bad socket can include wear from repeated bulb replacements, damaged contacts from moisture exposure over time, or loose electrical connections.

Symptoms include:

• Intermittent or no interior light function  
• Bulbs that will not screw in securely or pop out easily
• Exposed or frayed electrical wire connections
• Visible cracks or breaks in the socket assembly

This genuine OEM GE replacement socket ensures clear vision inside refrigerator shelves for years. Compatible with additional brands including Hotpoint, RCA, or Kenmore refrigerator models.

The Wire Tie is an OEM part for GE dryers. It is used to secure and organize internal wiring, ensuring that wires remain properly positioned and do not interfere with the operation of the dryer. This part plays an important role in preventing wires from becoming tangled, pinched, or damaged during the dryer’s cycles.

Over time, the wire tie can become worn out, broken, or damaged due to prolonged exposure to heat, vibrations, or wear from normal use. A compromised wire tie can lead to loose or unsecured wiring, which may impact the performance of the dryer or cause electrical issues.

Symptoms of a bad Dryer Wire Tie include:

• Loose or unsecured internal wiring
• Interference with dryer components during operation
• Electrical malfunctions or short circuits
• Wires appearing frayed or damaged due to improper support

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

This self-adhesive foam strip provides a flexible seal and buffer for appliance gaps, helping reduce drafts, rattling, and moisture intrusion. Designed for easy stick-on replacement where foam padding or sealing is needed. What it does

• Seals small gaps between components to help reduce air leaks and temperature loss
• Cushions panels and doors to minimize noise and vibration
• Helps block moisture and dust from entering sensitive areas
• Self-adhesive backing allows for quick placement without extra glue

• One self-adhesive foam strip

• Surface must be clean and dry; wipe with isopropyl alcohol for best adhesion
• Measure and trim the foam strip to fit—use scissors or a utility knife
• Press firmly along the length to ensure full contact; allow adhesive to set before closing doors or panels
• For safety, disconnect power to the appliance before working in internal areas

Replacement dispenser housing shield that protects internal dispenser components and restores a clean, finished appearance. Fits the dispenser area and helps prevent damage from spills or impacts while improving dispenser alignment and usability. What it does:

• Shields internal dispenser parts from spills, debris and everyday wear.
• Restores proper fit and finish to the dispenser opening for consistent cup placement.
• Common replacement when the dispenser guard is cracked, broken, warped or missing.
• Helps reduce risk of leaks and keeps controls and mechanisms covered.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Typically requires removal of the dispenser front or trim; basic hand tools recommended.
• Retain or transfer any clips, screws or brackets during replacement.

This is a replacement 8-18 x 3/4 inch screw used to secure appliance panels and components. It restores proper fastening to reduce rattles and ensure parts stay in place. What it does

• Fastens trim pieces, panels, brackets and small components
• Replaces missing or stripped screws that cause loose panels or vibration
• Helps prevent gaps that can allow rattling or misalignment
• Matches OEM thread and length for a correct fit when specified

• Use the correct driver bit to avoid stripping the head
• Tighten securely but avoid overtightening, which can strip threads or crack plastic
• Remove power/employ basic safety measures before accessing internal components
• Replace all matching screws for consistent fit

This AC freezer harness routes power and signal connections between the freezer compartment components to restore proper electrical continuity and reliable operation. It's a direct-fit wiring harness used in the freezer section of compatible refrigerators. What it does:

• Provides power and signal connections for freezer components such as fans, sensors, and control interfaces
• Ensures secure plug-to-plug wiring without splicing or ad-hoc connections
• Commonly replaced when freezer fan, sensors, or controls lose power or show intermittent operation
• Can prevent electrical issues caused by damaged, corroded, or brittle wiring

The Compressor is an OEM component specifically designed for GE top-mounted and bottom-mounted refrigerator freezers. Responsible for circulating refrigerant, its robust motor compressively moves gas to chill interiors reliably. Permanent lubrication withstands constant operation.

Symptoms of a faulty compressor commonly involve cycling off too frequently or inefficient temperature regulation. Loss of pressure from degradation risks expensive repairs necessitating replacement. 

Causes of a bad compressor relate to typical wear reducing circulation. Over-activation exposes motor windings to damage requiring timely change.

Causes of a bad compressor can involve:

• Failure to maintain set temperatures 
• Frost buildup impairing performance
• Vibrations transferring to cabinetry

This OEM GE part is also compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA, and Frigidaire refrigerators. Replace to retain steady refrigeration preserving freshness for dependable operation long-term.
