Part #WR55X10025
This temperature sensor, also called a thermistor, measures temperature inside the refrigerator or freezer and sends readings to the main control board. The board uses this information to control cooling, including compressor and fan operation. Incorrect readings may cause the compartment to become too warm or too cold, or make cooling run longer than needed. The replacement includes the sensor body and wire leads. Its location varies by appliance. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer.

If your refrigerator is leaking, the dispenser is not dispensing, or the ice maker is not making or dispensing ice, the inlet valve may be involved. It controls water flow to the refrigerator’s water system and includes a guard. Check water pressure first; if it is sufficient, test valve continuity with a multimeter. Disconnect power before testing or replacing the valve. The inlet uses a 1/4-inch compression fitting, with 1/4-inch and 5/16-inch John Guest outlets. Confirm fit for your refrigerator.

Ice Maker – Part Number: WR30X10093
$207.55
In Stock
Ice Maker
★★★★★
★★★★★
(98)
Part #WR30X10093
This refrigerator ice maker assembly automatically freezes water and releases crescent-shaped ice cubes into the storage bin. It replaces an existing ice maker that has stopped cycling, fails to release ice, or has damaged components. Poor ice production can also result from a restricted water supply or incorrect freezer temperature, so check these conditions before replacing the assembly. Confirm the mounting arrangement, fill cup position, electrical connections, and included adapters against the appliance parts list to ensure the kit matches the original installation. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer.
Dispenser Door Assembly or Flapper – Part Number: WR17X11653
$33.60
In Stock
Dispenser Door Assembly or Flapper
★★★★★
★★★★★
(93)
Part #WR17X11653
Warm, moist air stays out of the ice chute when this refrigerator dispenser door flapper closes against the opening. The flap opens during ice dispensing, allowing cubes to pass through, then returns to form a seal when dispensing ends. A cracked, warped, or damaged sealing edge may leave gaps that contribute to frost, condensation, or dripping around the chute. Replacing a damaged flapper helps restore proper closure and reduces air leakage between the freezer and room while the dispenser is idle. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer.
Dispenser Door Solenoid Assembly – Part Number: WR62X10055
$56.33
In Stock
Dispenser Door Solenoid Assembly
★★★★★
★★★★★
(36)
Part #WR62X10055
This ice dispenser solenoid moves the linkage that opens the ice chute door when dispensing is activated. When power is released, the mechanism allows the flap to close and limit warm air entering the freezer. A failed or sticking solenoid may prevent ice from dispensing or leave the chute door open, contributing to frost or moisture buildup. Inspect the solenoid, spring, and door linkage before replacement, since other mechanism faults can cause similar symptoms. Disconnect power before accessing the dispenser assembly and follow the appliance instructions for mounting and wiring. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer.
Main Control Board Assembly – Part Number: WR55X10942C
$381.06
In Stock
Main Control Board Assembly
★★★★★
★★★★★
(18)
Part #WR55X10942C
This electronic board (Main Control Board Assembly, Control Board, Motherboard) controls the temperature and defrost functions of the unit. This control board is located on the back of the refrigerator, and measures 8 inches by 5 inches. It’s constructed of metal and plastic, and comes in green. This kit includes one main control board with built in defrost controls. If broken due to electrical surges or normal use, your fridge may experience temperatures that are too warm or too cold, or inconsistent defrost cycles. If this happens, the part should be replaced.
Defrost Heater and Bracket Assembly – Part Number: WR51X10055
$92.28
In Stock
Defrost Heater and Bracket Assembly
★★★★★
★★★★★
(41)
Part #WR51X10055
This defrost heater and bracket assembly melts frost from the evaporator coils during the automatic defrost cycle. Clearing the frost allows air to move across the cooling surface and through the refrigerator compartments. A failed heater may allow ice to build up, restricting airflow and leaving the fresh food or freezer section too warm. The appliance may also run longer without reaching the set temperature. Confirm the heater fault before replacement, since the thermostat and defrost control can cause similar symptoms. Disconnect power before accessing the assembly. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer.
Ice Dispensing Drive Cup – Part Number: WR17X11459
No Longer Available
Ice Dispensing Drive Cup
★★★★★
★★★★★
(35)
Part #WR17X11459

Recess Door Spring – Part Number: WR02X10585
$16.10
In Stock
Recess Door Spring
★★★★★
★★★★★
(12)
Part #WR02X10585
This recess door spring returns the ice chute door or dispenser lever to its resting position after use. It sits inside the water and ice dispenser assembly, behind the control panel. A broken spring or loss of tension may leave the chute door open or cause the lever to hang loose instead of returning normally. An open chute can let warm, moist air enter the freezer and contribute to frost around the dispenser opening. Check the spring and surrounding mechanism when these symptoms occur. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer.

Refrigertor water dispenser not working BUT ice machine is working

The very first symptom here is important! The door water dispenser is not working but the ice macine is working. You may only have a frozen water tube in the door so do the following before diagnosing that your solenoid valve is bad: 1) the tube usually runs under the front of the refrigerator and usually has a quick disconnect. Undo t he connection and press the dispenser. If water comes out of the tube you have a frozen or blocked tube in the door. 2) Immediately adjust the temperature in the freezer and warm the freezer compartment as much as you can without destroying the freezer contents. Wait 24 hours. This will usually unfreeze the line. Do not waste your time with a hair dryer. NOW, if this doesn't work and you are convinced you need to order and replace the solenoid, follow these steps. Assemble your tools first. I needed a good ratchet set and a screwdriver. A shop towel is helpful for spilled water. A light is handy. Pull out the refreigerator to gain access to the rear of the unit. Unplug the power and close the water valve (older homes, you may need to actually shut the house water supply). Remove the screws which hold the cover over the lower half of the refrigerator. On the left you will see the solenoid. It's always good to see that your new part matches the one you feel needs replaced. They may not match perfectly due to changing design but they should be very similar. One screw holds this part in place and access is very simple. Now simply unplug the electrical connections. In my case, one blue "blade" type connection (powering the water) and one red "blade" type connection powering the ice maker. They are not the same size and this coupled with the coloring means you will not accidently switch them. pull the tubes clear of the solenoid. This is simple and needs no explantion. Grab your new solenoid and reattach both the electrical and water lines (two, remember, ice maker and drink dispencer). Replace the single screw. Re-attach the rear, lower refrigerator cover and go to the front of the unit to check the water. You can listen carefully and hear the power engage from the new part bringing you water. Clean up, replace the refrigerator back to its place and look really tired when your wife sees that you worked "so hard"! You probably saved at least $50-$80 from a service call which can now be used to take the family to dinner after your "exhausting" 15 minute workout of removing about 10 screws and wheeling the unit in and out of place. Writing this article took longer! My 4 year old worked harder holding the flash light!

Ice Maker stopped dispensing ice through Ice Maker Dispensor.

After taking Ice Maker's ice collection container out, I noticed that the plastic cup drive was broken. I did a websearch for repair and replacement parts for our GE refrigerator. I found PartSelect website easy to navigate and find the replacement part necessary...and placed an order.

Once I received the shipment, I placed the Cup Drive into position and used the flat edge of a knife to allow the Cup Drive to slide into the tight-fitting position necessary. After positioning into place, I placed the ice collection bin back into the freezer...turned the ice-maker back on...and waited for ice to be made. A day later, the ice maker had produced enough ice to test the ice maker's dispensing mechinism. The cup drive worked perfectly...and ice began to be dispensed. The dispensor has been working ever since.

I also replace the ice and water filter...another very easy task...of unscrewing the old and replacing with the new filter. After replacing the filter, I let the water dispensor run for 2 minutes to flush all air out the system. The water dispensor work perfectly.

Fridge too warm, evaporator icing up

After replacing the defrost heater, main board and thermistor I still had the same problem. Called a repair guy and he (with the help of GE on the phone) diagnosed that the temperature sensor was bad. So I ordered from partselect and installed it and it fixed the problem. Been good for a couple months (knocking on wood). To install I had to cut the 2 wires to the old sensor, crimp the 2 new wires on and snap the new sensor to the clip on the evaporator. Very easy. Make sure you seal the ends of the wire crimps so moisture doesn't get in and corrode the connection.
