GSS23WSTASS General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

We removed the front panel by using a screwdriver underneath the panel to push three little tabs up to unlock the panel. Next we removed the mother board. Removed the old solenoid and put the new one on. It was very easy. We cleaned all he parts that were covered with mildew (yuck) and reassembeled all the parts. Very glad we found this source to do it ourselves. Will order more parts if needed from PartSelect.com

REplaced old icemaker with a new one. Install simple, However that was not the problem. I then replaced the water valve. Still no ice. I check the electric connection was OK. THe problem was the elbow fitting on the top back of the refrigerater leading to the icemaker was blocked with ice.Cleared it and turned water faucet up all the way. Ice maker worked.

installed the part

Looked online for possible reasons my refrigerator wasn't cooling like it should. When I removed the back cover in the freezer. I could see the defroster had seen its better days. Ordered a replacement online at PartSlect, I recevied it the very next day. Followed the instuctions that came with my new defrost heater kit. Now my refrigerator is cooling like it did when it was new.

Removed rear cover, replaced board one connection at a time reattached back plate after thourghly cleaning all dust and lint from the unit.
Saved approximately $200.00 on the installation, it was quite easy and operation was self evident with only two nut drivers.

My Ge top freezer fefrigerator was going into defrost mode and the heater was staying on for too long causing the food to thaw and eventually refreeze. Originally thought it was the mother board but after researching and do some troubleshooting of my own I realized the defrost terminating thermostat was bad. $8 part from Parts Select. Accessed the evaporator by removing back wall plate. Located thermostat and cut two lead wires to it. Spliced in new thermostat and reattached to eveaporator. Refrigerator seems to be good as new. There is an installation video on the web page that shows you step by step proceedure.

The process would have been fairly intuitive, and the part is designed in such a way that it is impossible to hook anything up to the wrong connecting point. PartSelect's on-line video of the repair was clear and easy to follow -- the perfect primer to review before I started the job. The first part I received was defective, and although it functioned it leaked water onto the floor. This gave me the opportunity to engage PartSelect's unparalleled customer service department for friendly and incredibly prompt correction. I look forward to my next appliance failure just for the pleasure of doing business with this exceptional firm.

My wife got on line looked up hotpoint parts, found this web site, navigated the possible solutions, ordered the part, and I installed myself. My wife could have repaired this part. I wish all repairs were this easy to repair, without calling a so called professional to do it. I am a do it yourself person, seldom call anyone to repair things, and I do get annoyed when I can't buy a part without going through a repair man. Love this web site and will definately keep this as my favorite web site. I JUST FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT CAME WITH THE PART! VERY EASY TO INSTALL. Once the control board was mounted everything clipped together easily.

Watched the video on PartSelect before I ordered the part. Removed the screws from the back and unplugged the wires from the old part, installed the new part without any trouble at all. Took about 15 minutes. Was a BREEZE!!!!!!Thanks to PartSelect .T.C.Wall, Axton, Va.

All the rest of everyone's post are all what I did. The only other thing I recommend is to put the back panel over the evaporator coils when your done. I replaced defrost thermostat, and heater. Once I initially completed it it kept icing over more than usual. You have to put the back panel back on so airflow goes over the coils.

I followed the instruction on the video but I failed to look at he assembly real good before disassembly. I did not notice how the stationary blade assembly was positioned and nothing in the video explained how to reinstall it. I had it togeather 3 or4 times before I noticed it had a pocket to go into. Other than that it was a snap.

Watched video on website then removed old ice maker. New one went in without any problems. Working great. I am a 60 year old woman and had never done anything like this but so easy. Husband scared now, doesn't know what project I will take on next.

New part came in few days, worked great, now I have water and ice. Couldn't find part anywhere, this was so nice and made it easy to get and fast. Thank you so much

The instruction video was great, mine was easy than even the video showed it to be. I changed it out in less than 15 minutes and it works great. The niocve things I didn't have to wait for a repairman or my husband to fix the problem.

turn off fridge. disconnect water. take off back panal. disconnect hoses from blue and red part of hose and unscrew old valve. put new valve and reassemble. in case of leak DO CUT HOSE TO ATTEMPT BETTER FIT. learned that one the hard way. those hoses come with the filter holder and are sold as a part. u live, u learn. all better now.
