JFC2089HPR Jenn-Air Refrigerator - Instructions

Diconnecting the hoses was a pain as there are no instructions. Draw a diagram of each hose and color of the connectors or better take a picture before starting. Make sure the water is off, have a bowl & towels ready to mop up the water that runs out of the hoses. You have to push each hose in along with the little top hat connector that the hose runs thru. With both pushed in, hold the top hat connector down and pull the hose up and out. I could not reconnect without a leak on the hose that has a spring in it if I slipped the hose thru the white bracket. I ran the hose outside of the bracket and it went right in with no leak.

Followed instructions and installed dual water valve. Did Not Solve Problem! ... Then replaced Water Filter. This fixed "water flow problem" and "no, or hollow" ice cubes.

The water valve for the ice maker / front water dispenser was relatively simple to repace. I never used these platic type of connectors to for the platic water tubing, but read a couple articles on how they work - I'm glad I did. To remove the tubing, you have to press the platic rings toward the valve, then the tubing slides right out. Just push the tubing into the ring to seat it. A handful of screws hold the valve and cover in place.
The new valve works, and I have a functioning ice maker again.

1. Turn your water OFF and pull the refrigerator out from the wall so you can access the back.
2. Use pliers to remove tubing clamp.
3. Remove old water fill tube.
4. I used a putty knife to gently pry out the old fill tube from the back of the refrigerator. Once the fill tube pulls out about 1/4 to 1/2", then you can gently pull the remainder of the tube out by hand. Once I removed my "old" fill tube, that is when I saw the "ice plug" that was causing pressure in the water supply line and caused my water line to pop off.
5. Install new fill tube. The end that goes in first needs to go through a small "ring" inside the freezer (this "ring" is not encountered until the fill tube only has about one more inch to be inserted into the back of the refigerator. I could barely see this "ring" if I opened the freezer drawer and stuck my head in as far as I could. I had to gently rotate the new fill tube until it cleared the "ring". You will feel some resistance until it lines up properly.
6. Snugly push in the part that stays on the outside of the refrigerator until it looks like it is sealed.
7. Gently push up the water fill tube where it belongs in the new part and replace the tubing clamp.
8. Turn your water on and make sure there are no leaks (I left my refrigerator out for about an hour).
9. Push your refrigerator back in place.

Pulled the unit from the wall, and unplugged, and turned off the water. Removed the back plate at the bottom of the refrigerator to gain access to the water inlet valve. Disconnected three tubes and two electrical connections and reconnected to the new inlet valve. Reassembled the back plate. Then turned everything back on and checked for leaks. Re-Installed the back plate. This was a fairly easy repair. The only problem I had was getting the water lines off the old valve. It was a bit of a struggle for me. I did watch a couple of you tube videos before I got started.

Cut old fill tube into pieces, removed and replaced with new tube. Extremely easy.

Removed the screws from the plate holding the valvefrom the frig. Removed the screws holding the valve to the plate. I took a picture with my digital camera before disconnecting any of the tubing or wiring to verify I put everything back the way it's supposed to go. I do this for most repair/replacement projects. Then I disconnected tubing and electrical connectors. Reinstalled new valve.

I simply removed the old dual valve and installed the new one. The lines were a snap to remove and replace. I couldn't be happier with the PartSelect web site and prompt delivery of the part.

Removed 5 srews with nut driver. Disconnected water lines and cut short piece off old lines. Reconnected water lines and reinstalled screws. Then connected water line to the replacement valve, it works great.

PartSelect.com was the easiest way to obtain this valve. I ordered the part Monday and it arrived Friday. I'm very pleased with their service.

I got really tired of taking food out covered in icicles and stabbing a huge block of ice out of the bottom. Turns out all he needed was a little wheel with cogs and I looked up the sticker model number on this site and clicked the part of the fridge. So simple, wish I would’ve done it sooner.

Frist moved refrigerator away from the wall and removed 5 screws holding valve plate to the back of refrigerator. Removed one screw holding valve to plate. Cut the three hosed as close as possible to the faulty valve with razor. Installed new valve to plate. shoved hosed into valve all the way to the seat bottom. Tested for leaks. Installed valve plate with the five screws. Rolled refrigerator back in place.
Tested by filling cup with water at refrig. door. OK
Ice tray filled with water within 5 minutes. OK

Plumber came to stop the water leak and told us it was a bad valve so I ordered the part - thank you Kate! - it was exactly what we needed. Disconnected the old valve (making note on the process) and installed the new valve in reverse process. Turned the water on and dispensed water and it leaked from one of the lines at connection. With the water turned off, my son again with pliers carefully pushed the tubing harder up into the valve and heard/felt it click into place and it has worked like a charm since. Good son and mom team.

Unplugged refrigerator, shut off water supply to unit. Used a 1/4 inch but driver to remove screws holding water valve panel and hose clamps to back of unit. Gloves should be worn as sheet metal often has sharp edges. Note size and position of hoses to valve. A fine point permanent marker is good to mark the tubing. Push tubes into valve and retainer, hold retainer down while pulling hoses out. Remove old valve from panel. Attach new valve to panel. Insert hoses/tubes to valve. Make sure they press into marks made. Now is a good time to open water supply and check for leaks. Screw panel back on. Bleed air by dispensing water, about two gallons should clear lines and filter.
