The Dual Water Inlet Valve Kit is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It controls the flow of water to both the ice maker and the water dispenser. This dual-function valve ensures that your refrigerator can produce ice and dispense water efficiently. The valve operates by opening and closing in response to signals from the refrigerator, allowing water to flow into the ice maker or water dispenser when needed. 

The dual water inlet valve may wear out over time, especially in hard water areas, leading to issues like no ice production, malfunctioning water dispenser, or leaks.

Symptoms of a bad Dual Water Inlet Valve Kit include:

• No water being dispensed
• The ice maker not producing any ice
• A slow or irregular flow of water from the dispenser
• Water leaking from the valve

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

The Ice Maker Water Line is an OEM replacement part for GE refrigerators. It is an important supply line that delivers water from the main water source to the icemaker component. The water line allows water to flow smoothly, facilitating the icemaking process.  

Causes of a bad water line can include cracks or punctures from impact or bending, mineral deposits and corrosion building up inside the line restricting flow, or improper connection fittings causing leakage.

Symptoms of a bad ice maker water line include:

• Irregular or insufficient ice production  
• No water delivery to the icemaker despite activation
• Noticeable leaks or drips near the water line attachment points
• Strange knocking or hammering sounds are heard when the icemaker is running

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

The Evaporator Fan Motor Kit is an OEM part compatible with GE refrigerators. It is a critical component responsible for circulating air and maintaining proper airflow within the refrigerator's evaporator system, ensuring efficient cooling and temperature regulation. It features a shaft that measures 3/8 of an inch and two right-side terminals. Notably, the motor no longer comes with harness wires, which must be obtained separately for installation.

Symptoms of a faulty evaporator fan motor include:

• Inconsistent or inadequate cooling in the refrigerator or freezer compartments
• Warm spots or temperature fluctuations within the refrigerator
• Excessive frost buildup or ice accumulation in the freezer

Causes of a bad evaporator fan motor can include wear and tear over time, electrical issues or short circuits, or physical damage from foreign objects or improper maintenance.

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

This evaporator fan blade mounts on the freezer fan motor and circulates air across the evaporator coils. Replacing a cracked or warped blade restores proper airflow for even cooling and more consistent temperatures throughout the refrigerator.

• Moves chilled air from the evaporator through the ducts to both compartments
• Helps maintain uniform temperatures and overall cooling performance
• Common symptoms of a faulty blade: weak airflow, poor cooling or warm spots, rattling/scraping noises from the freezer, longer run times
• Visual signs include a cracked hub, loose fit on the shaft, or broken/missing vanes

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Remove freezer shelves/ice bin and the rear panel to access the fan assembly
• Pull the old blade straight off the motor shaft; align the hub and press the new blade on until fully seated
• Verify blade orientation and free rotation inside the shroud before reassembly

This is a GE refrigerator defrost heater assembly. The defrost heater assembly is the component responsible for defrosting the freezer compartment.If the refrigerator has been having trouble defrosting or making loud noises when the defrost heater turns on, this part could need a replacement. When this part malfunctions there could be a noticeable increase in ice building up in the freezer compartment. This situation should be fixed quickly because the increasing ice could damage other parts. Start any repairs by unplugging the refrigerator first. Take all the shelves out of the freezer and remove the freezer light shield. Unthread the two screws securing the rear freezer panel inside of the freezer. Detach the clip and remove the panel. The defrost heater should be accessible at this point. This part is located near the bottom of the freezer. Unthread the screws holding it in place and disconnect it from its wiring. Repeat these steps in reverse to install the new appliance.This is a genuine OEM replacement product sourced directly from GE. This heater assembly is only available individually and is not included with other parts.

This icing kit is a factory update designed to reduce frost build-up in the ice/dispenser area. It improves sealing and insulation to help keep the ice path clear and restore reliable dispensing performance.

• Reduces frost or ice accumulation caused by air leaks or condensation in the ice path
• Improves sealing/insulation so the ice door closes properly and maintains a tight seal
• Helps prevent blocked ice flow and intermittent dispensing due to icing
• Common symptoms include frost around the dispenser opening, ice door not closing fully, or a sticking/jamming dispenser

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Follow the manufacturer's installation instructions for your specific model
• After reassembly, verify the ice door operates freely and seals without gaps
• Allow up to 24 hours of normal operation for temperatures and moisture levels to stabilize

The Defrost Timer is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. This part manages the defrost cycle of the fridge and freezer compartments, ensuring that the evaporator coils do not build up excessive frost. 

This cycling is crucial for maintaining optimal temperatures for food preservation and energy efficiency. Over time, the defrost timer can malfunction due to wear, electrical issues, or a buildup of dust and debris, leading to poor performance or failure.

Symptoms of a bad Defrost Timer include:

• Frost buildup in the freezer compartment
• The refrigerator or freezer is not maintaining the set temperature
• The fridge or freezer sections are too warm
• The defrost cycle does not activate, leading to reduced cooling efficiency

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

The Condenser Fan Motor is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It is designed to circulate air through the condenser coils, helping to dissipate heat and keep the refrigerator's internal components cool. This ensures efficient operation and prevents the compressor from overheating, which is essential for maintaining the refrigerator's performance and longevity.

You should replace the condenser fan motor if it becomes faulty. Causes of a bad fan motor can include electrical failures, wear and tear from regular use, or blockages that cause the motor to overheat or burn out. A malfunctioning fan motor can lead to inadequate cooling, increased energy consumption, and potential damage to other refrigerator components.

Symptoms of a bad condenser fan motor include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly
• Unusual noises coming from the back of the refrigerator
• The compressor running hot or cycling on and off frequently
• The condenser coils feeling excessively hot

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

This part has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available.

The Run Capacitor is an OEM part for GE refrigerators. It plays a crucial role in the refrigerator's cooling system by providing the necessary start and run voltage to the compressor. Without a properly functioning run capacitor, your refrigerator may struggle to maintain the desired temperature, leading to spoiled food and inefficient energy use.

Causes of a bad run capacitor include electrical surges, wear and tear over time, or overheating due to a malfunctioning refrigerator compressor or poor ventilation.

Symptoms of a bad Run Capacitor include:

• The refrigerator compressor fails to start.
• Unusual humming noises coming from the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator cycles on and off more frequently than normal.
• A noticeable increase in energy consumption as the refrigerator struggles to maintain the proper temperature.
