The Water Filter Bypass is an OEM part for LG refrigerators. It provides a way to bypass the installed water filter and allows the water line to pass directly to the ice maker and water dispenser.
Causes of a bad water filter bypass can include mineral or sediment buildup restricting water flow, cracks or leaks in the plastic components, or damage to the bypass valve.
Symptoms of a bad water filter bypass include:
- Slow or declining water pressure at the dispenser
- Sediment or particles in the water
- Inability to bypass a clogged water filter
- Leaks in the water line connections
Replacing the water filter bypass restores optimal water flow and allows the filter to be changed out easily. This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.
