TPX21BRBABB General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

The inlet valve on my Frig had compression fittings, very easy to use. The part I recieved was threaded, very difficult to find the correct fitting for water line hose 3/8 on inlet side 5/8 on hose side. In the end, I cleaned up old valve, bought a new braided line for house service to frig and the leak has stopped. Not sure if cleaning valve or new line fixed issue but no leaks. Company shipped part as directed with no issues. Thanks, Dave

really simple,take 2 nuts loose pull the hose out and then replace.took less than 30 minutes

Fairly easy I pull the fridge foward and remove the backing board and notice the fan wasn't working, so I remove the fan and bench tested and it was burned then I clean the condenser with compress air if you don't have air then a vacuum cleaner works then once the part arrived I install it the now if working very good

Repair went exactly like the video. With this video it was easy to make the repair. There were no surprises or problems and I felt confident in the videos instructions. It was like pushing the easy button.

Snapped off the plastic plate covering the dispenser. Removed the four screws holding the mechanism in place. Remove the electrical connections. Pull the mechanism out and up carefully pulling the dispenser pad out with all the mechanism in place. Look at the mechanism before removing any parts to get a mental image so that reassembly will be easy. Remove any electrical switch or circuit boards and remove old parts before submerging the mechanism in hot soapy water for clean-up. The Clean-up will take longer than the disassemble and reassembling. After completion the dispenser works as it should.

The solenoid in the dispenser was overheated due to the control board failure. After I rerplaced the board I found the heat had distorted the plastic crank and jammed the solenoid action. The plastic crank was easy to replace. Now after expending approx. $75 everything works normally!

Had to take front panel off dispenser area. Then remove components and install new part. That was easy part. Problem was getting components back into front of freezer. Seemed like something was blocking it from going all the way in. Had to remove small amount of insulation and "jiggle" components and eventually fell into place.

pulled fridge away from wall, shut water to fridge disconnected both lines,back one and front one.Removed old water resevoir 1 screw. cut old lines at resevoir. used small threaded rod (1"long)to connect old lines to new lines and taped together,pulled new lines with old lines and reconnected.No lifting of fridge,actual repair under 1 Hour but took longer because I cleaned underneath really well and took my time.

I removed the ice container with the auger inside. I removed the front panel, then the auger and housing. I had to clean all of the parts that had rust on them. I got some of the parts mixed up and was having a hard time putting them back where they belonged. I went back on the PartSelect web site and with my IPad and opened the exploded view of the parts. This enabled me to put the auger back together. It works perfectly now. Saved a lot of money by doing it myself. Thanks PartSelect.

I had read from your sight, to simply cut the lines at the reservoir and tape the new lines to the old. Then use the old lines to pull/feed the new lines to the coupler/valve. This worked great and greatly decreased the time it took to install. I spent more time moving out the frig and cleaning up all the dust (probably should do that more often)

I replaced tie ice Dispenser Plate & thye ice Bucket Auger.I read the previous installation instructions written on this website first.Good info! I copied the Parts diagram on the website, this really helped. I also took my phone camera and took pictures as I was taking the parts apart. The only problem I had was with the Wire Actuator Display Rod,making sure the spring tension was correct and positioned the correct way when I reassembled it. I was able to look at my pictures and assemble it back the correct way. I put the ice bucket assembly back in the refrig and it works great. No more rusty Ice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since my refrig is 18 yrs. old and I never had to replace it, took a little long to remove trim piece on the outside. After that repair went smoothly. I still have problem with water collecting inside on the bottom of the freezer, might have a leak somewhere. Ice maker is functioning correctly.

replaced circuit board and water solenoids

Replaced flapper, which was in surprisingly good condition. Major part of repair was removing a lot of mold incurred from long term seepage of room air into the ice channel. In the process of the repair, I discovered that the solenoid to the right of the flapper was hanging up badly. I removed it and cleaned both the plunger and the interior cone of the solenoid with alcohol. This removed quite a bit of rust and some mold. Reinstalled solenoid, replaced flapper and it works just fine. May need to replace solenoid if problem recurs. Certainly worth $37.00!

Really easy- turned off ice maker, powered down appliance briefly. Removed ice maker by removing 3 screws with 1/4 nut driver. Unplugged ice maker from power supply. Removed and replaced solenoid arm assembly. Reversed steps and whammy - ice cubes dropped.
