Sorry, we couldn't find any existing installation instruction that matched.
The old pull handle had turned an ugly mustard-yellow color after 20 years of service. It desperately needed replacement. In all other respects, the refrigerator still looked and worked great!
1. Upper and lower door trim leading above and below the middle handle section needing replacement both need to be removed first.
2. On the top trim piece, insert the rounded knife tip at the very top of the trim. Knife should be inserted between the outer chrome strip and the white strip that runs down the center of the trim
... Read more.
3. Then twist the knife to gently pry the top of the white strip away from the chrome strip.
4. Once this is done, gently use your fingers to free the white strip all the way down to the center handle, popping the strip free at its bottom. Don't be in a hurry and be gentle, or you may bend the sheet metal white trim piece and ruin its appearance for re-installation.
5. Repeat the same for the lower door trim, though this time starting at the bottom of the door and working the white strip loose in the upward direction. For future reference, I made sure I labelled each piece temporarily with marked masking tape to keep track of which strip came from the top, and which from the bottom. This way, I could re-install them in their original positions.
6. At the top and bottom of the middle plastic handle, there were now visible single screws which held the chrome pieces securing the plastic handle to the door. (They had been hidden by the white filler strips.)
7. Remove both of these screws, saving them for re-use in the re-installation process.
8. Remove the two chrome pieces. It is a good time now to thoroughly clean the white strips and all door parts.
9. Remove the old plastic pull handle from its two chrome end pieces, replacing it with the new white plastic pull handle.
10. Use the two saved screws to re-attach the new pull handle to the door.
11. Starting at the top, gently pop the old top white center strip into the upper chrome trim piece track.
12. Gently work the full length of the white center piece into the chrome trim piece moving slowly from top to bottom. Take care to be gentle and avoid bending the white strip by being in too much of a hurry.
13. Do the same to the bottom trim, though starting here at the bottom and working upwards to the pull handle.
You are done and your fridge now looks like new!

Door handles worn out, cracked, looked terrible
After contemplating for months on replacing my GE side-by-side refrigerator and realizing the only reason I wanted to is because the door handles were disgusting, I found this site and decided to try to replace them first. After reading other instructions shared, it was a relatively simple fix. You'll need a flathead screwdriver to pop
... Read moreoff the trim and a torque screwdriver to remove and reinstall the handle screws. That's it. Looks great! Wish I would have done this sooner as it would have saved me a lot of worry time. The cost of replacing my refrigerator is a nice perk, too!

uncommon/unusual screws
Flat or philips screwdriver does not fit, Hex keys do not fit either. Had to buy a set of 6-pointed Torx keys to remove and re-install the existing screws. With the right tool it is an easy job.

Finish on handles had worn off over the years - they looked awful !
WIth a flathead screwdriver, I "popped off" the 4 long thin white "cover" strips that run from the top and bottom of the doors to the beginning of the door handles. This exposed the screws that held the old handles in place. Simply remove the old handles, replace with new ones, then replace the "cover strips" . It was very easy and loo

Does this white handle have a chrome frame hard parts or is the frame white also. We are looking for chrome hard parts with white soft grips.
