TFT27PRBCWW General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

There are Great videos on YouTube!!! Turned off power,Removed trim ring, Pushed a philips head screwdriver in one of the holes underneath the electrical panel with the selector push buttons. This releases the electrical panel. There are Three wire sets with plugs. I removed the plugs and took the electrical panel out. Removed four Phillips head screws and pulled out the big paddle switch. This then exposes the flapper. Replaced flapper with new one and reassembled everything. When I had everything apart, I cleaned with window cleaner. It was pretty moldy from the water leaking. Turned power back on and tested everything to make sure I didn't mess anything up. Works great

Researched on internet/you tube; ordered part, and did the repair. Easy to do and saved the cost of a service call.

Followed the instructions in the video, which showed our exact refrigerator. Very easy instruction, for a simple job. However, it did not fix the problem. At this point I suspect a faulty replacement part (which cannot now return), or some other issue requiring further analysis. Could also be that the original Inlet Water Valve is not at fault, which means that this high probability fix (70%) was not needed.

I simply removed 6 screws that held bucket to face and pit on new bucket and put it back in freezer works great

Remove the one screw holding the unit in place, unplug it, slide in the replacement, plug and screw it in.

follow the video

Be careful when ordering the part. Make sure you need a Double or Single Outlet Water Valve. They look almost the same in the catalog.
Unplug the power cord and turn off the stopcock water supply valve. Unplug the 2 electrical jacks and pull-out the water hose from the compression type fitting. Use a philips screwdriverdriver to remove the bad part. Install the new part in the reverse steps.

Screwed new bulb in socket

unclipped and replace with new part.

First I removed the incoming water line from the valve. I then removed the screw that hold the valve in place. Then I pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two connector wires. Next I cut the plastic hoses from the old valve.
To install the new valve, I inserted the two plastic hoses into the new valve. (hoses are different diameters so it is next to impossible to insert them incorrectly.) I replaced the electrical connectors (This was the only glitch since the one connector on the refrigerator is larger then the pins on the new valve, A little electrical tape held the connector in place.) I then tightened the screw that holds the valve on the refirgerator and reconnected the household water to line to the valve.
The entire job took less time then it has taken me to type the procedure.

Turn off water valve to the refigerator and disconnect line.
Remove the cardboard backing and insulation.
Remove old valve and cut lines close to the valve.
Trim plastic on new valve as needed to fit (generic valve).
Insert water lines into new valve.
Install new valve.
Connect water line and open valve.
Replace cardboard backing and insulation.

Found a step by step video on YouTube made replacement very easy. Cubed ice is back. Time for a cocktail to celebrate!

Emptied hopper
Removed screws to remove auger from existing
This was so easy I impressed my wife

Replace the flapper and this solved it. The video provided was excellent and allowed me to do this repair myself.

Placed a used fridge from a friend into a condo I am selling. Thought it would be nice to include, but the yellow handles against the nice white body was UGLY. Found this great site, read reviews, and ordered the parts. Was very easy. Have to have a flathead screwdriver to carefully remove the Upper and Lower Tail pieces. You need an Allen wrench for the Door Handle screws. Its the one that is shaped like an L and has six sides. When putting on the new tail pieces slip the large end on first, it has a tongue that slips into the handle, then pop it in working to the thin end.
