Ice maker not working
First i shut the water valve off going to the fridge, I then removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires. Then i took the water line loose to the element, reverse the prosses and put all back on new element and installed,

Upper/ Lower not Cooling constantly running
The seal was replaced but the unit has not improved. Troubleshooting - the heater unit on the coil at the freezer was checked; OK, But; there is a little ice build up on the upper area of the condenser. The compressor is running, the lower aft section of the fan and coils is clean and operating. Changed sensors on the freezer and upper fridge compartment. Still no help. May just purchase another refrigerator..:(

no water going to icemaker. Checked everything.
I first disconnected the plug from the wall outlet. I then turned off the water supply to the back of the refrigerator. I then disconnected the two lines to the water inlet valve and removed the nut that holds the bracket to the refrigerator. I removed the water valve and installed the new one the same way in about 5-10 minutes. It was very easy, but, unfortunely that was not the problem.

Ice maker was continuously running water
Googled the problem, came across this site where I learned what needed to be done to fix. Checked the part price, looked just for couriosity at the price from GE, it was WAY more expensive. Ordered the part, it arrived super fast, and shipping was next to nothing. The part came in, I replaced it. I made my husband so proud!!!

compressor running and hot, refer and fridge room temp.
Watched a youtube on capacitors- though on a motor with a pulley, the symptoms were the same, motor running and pulley not turning-bad capacitor. Took a chance for a 17+ dollar part vs a new compressor. It worked.

fan and compressor wont start
Googled the model number of refrigerator with symptoms of "refrigerator wont run". Parts select web site appeared on my screen, opened Parts Select website, Partselect said probable cause of my frige symptom was that the run capacitor usually burns out 51% of the time. They were correct with the diagnosis 100%. I ordered the run capacitor for $23.00, installed it in 10 minutes, refrigerator runs good as new. Thank you for saving me cost of service call. I probably saved $200 or more. I will use Partselect again with my next problem. THANK YOU,
