CFCP1RKBESS General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

removed the back cover, removed one srew that held the valve, disconnected water lines, and installed the new valve. Piece of cake!

I put the water hoses out the valve and put the hoses back in new valve after that put the valve in the same place with the nutdriver. When refrigerator take the temperature inside, the ice began really easy. Thank you.

Easy Squeezy . Not counting pulling the Refrigerator out and removing the cover ( which I had already done) I had the old control board out and new one in in 15 minutes. The squeeze mounting plugs were a little tricky but after that it was just a matter of getting the multiple plugs into the correct receptacles.

Changing out solenoid was very easy, but you don't have to remove trim ring and it didn't fix my problem. Turns out a relay fell out of its holder in the piece you have after removing the 4 screws per the video.

Our refrigerator stopped working/cooling. Searched Youtube for troubleshooting solutions and found several helpful videos. After following the instructions from the various videos I determined that the main controller board was bad. Ordered the part from PartSelect, received it in timely manner, installed the part following the instructions provided from videos and the refrigerator started up right away. Gave it 24 hours before to make sure it was going to cool down and hold proper temperatures then put it back in use.

We are really happy not to be buying a new refrigerator.

Went exactly by the video. Perfect job, you send the installation video with the part. You watch the video before or during, goof proof, took longer to disassemble than to replace the part.

I made my wife fix it.

Moved stuff out of my way on the top shelf, reached in and turned old filter to remove. Filled new filter with water, lined up and turned to lock in place. Whew, never thought I would get that job done. :-)

Take the face (the part with the buttons on the outside) off, disconnect wired connectors (three), take the screws out of the part behind that (4), and then find the solenoid value (on the right). It's attached with three screws. Mine was rusted beyond belief. I knew this was the problem, ordered a new solenoid valve, put it back in place with three screws (use new screws that fit, not the old rusty ones if possible). When testing, make sure you give the flap a couple of seconds to close. There is a delay, and I initially wasn't patient enough so I had to disassemble and assemble an extra time because of this.

Simply put: If your solenoid value is rusted and the value won't operate smoothly, order the part and install it. This is as easy as any repair could be.

remove the front of were the ice and water comes out
then un scerw 4 scerw and the solenoid slides out unhook the wires and put the new one in

Ordered new solenoid so the flap would close. That did the trick.

I replaced the original solenoid, which had rusted into one solid piece. OMG how easy was that!

Went on this site, found out many others like me had the flap door stuck open problem, it would not shut after you went for ice. I needed a new solenoid that opens when the ice is dispenced and closes afterwards not allowing the warm ambient air to come up the shoot which frosts the ice and melts it. It shipped QUICK and now I have a working ice maker dispenser from the outside. Its been 2 YEARS of opening the door and reaching into the ice maker bin for ice! Thanks PartSelect

removed 6 screws and repaced cover.

Very simple fix. Just remove the back cover, unscrew the water valve, unplug the water valve and disconnect the water line. Then reinstall the new one. Takes about 15 to 20 min and it worked like a champ
