turned off water supply, removed cardboard back, removed supply line, unhooked all color coded connections,took out bad water valve and replaced with new one note: the new valve came with pex connections so i carefully cut off flared tubing ends with sharp razor knife making sure when i pushed tubing into new valve that i did so with some force until i HEARD and felt them snap in place very simple plus i received the new valve in 2 days very happy with PartsSelect.com you CAN do it

remove back cardboard panel, cut off water supply, remove screws holding valve to back of refrigerator, unscrew water lines & reattach to same fittings on new valve, screw new valve in place, replace cardboard cover.

Installed new valve.There are several pieces of tubing coming off of the valve. Pay close attention to where they go. Color coordination is poor on the new valve.

The new inlet valve came with pisco connectors so had to cut the end of the tubes off. Before doing this I marked all the tubes to make sure they were replaced in the correct order. The pisco connectors are great to use and very quick. The total install time was about 20 to 30 minutes. While you have the back of the frig off make sure you vaccuum the fan and coils. It was making ice in less than 20 minutes.

All instructions included on this site are good. I would add only one thing to them. When removing the 4 water lines from the old unit be sure to pull up on the white rings while you pull down on the water lines. All else is a snap.

Used a nut driver to remove the small panal from the back of the refrigerator. Removed the two screws holding the valve in place. Unscrewed the water lines from the old valve and cut the ends off of them. Push the water lines back into the new valve. Unpluged the wiring from the old valve and installed them in the new valve. reinstalled the new valve and put the cover back on. Tested system for proper operation.

Used socket set and screw drivers to attach ordered hinge, thankfully we had the screws just not the hinge. Wonderful to be able to find and order on line! Thanks so much!!!

Purchased a replacement part only to find the new part had push on fitting and my part has screw on fittings. Went to Youtube where Partselect had a video on how to replace the part from screw fittings to push on fittings

I changed the valve but still no ice, changed the filter also. think it was just froze. could have saved me 70 bucks

problem still persists part did not fix problem. made repairs recommended per your site.

Once the filter arrived, I pushed it in that releases a latch and removed the clogged filter. I then pushed in the new filter and when it clicked, I ran a few cups of water through it to clear any debris left from manufacturing and the job was finished. Less than 15 minutes.

Push in on filter and it releases pull filter out. Slide new one in push in and it locks it. Run water for 2 minutes and it is finished

it is a very simple process. pull out the water filter. put in the new one after removing the plastic tops. slide the filter in place pushing to set it in place. run water through water spout on door of fridge for about 3 minutes or until all the air bubbles are out. and there you are ready for a drink of water.

1. Turn off water in line to refrigerator. 2. disconnect hose from refrigerator. 3. Remove back cardboard panel at bottom of refrigerator. 4 Remove 2 screws holding in the valve assembly at bottom right. 5. best way I found to remove hoses (all color coded) is to cut with razor knife at the white collar. cut clean and square. 6. disconnect electrical (also color coded) 7. connect hoses to valve assembly by pushing hose firmly into hole. If you are familiar with PEX then this is the same. Reconnect electrical. Reconnect to refrigerator... 3,2,1 your done. It will take a couple cycles to get the air out of the lines.
