ZIR361NPRCII General Electric Refrigerator - Instructions

took off plate pull out old valve plug in new valve replace plate

1.Unplug and turn off water supply to refrigerator. 2.Remove several screws from back panel and remove panel 3. Remove water supply line from valve. 4. Remove screw holding valve on using 1/4" nut driver or socket. 5.Remove the 2 electrical plugs and 2 water lines from valve. 6.reinstall in reverse order. This is a 5 minute job at best. Good Luck! I had my fridge in storage for several years and when it froze it cracked the storage tank PS783769 I replaced it first and found valve was leaking after tank was replaced.

Watch the video

The repair is easy enough, only problem I had was that I ordered the wrong part initially. Unfortunately, on the parts schematic there are two different parts listed and I didn't realize it. I did not look at my water valve prior to ordering, and naturally ordered the wrong one. One good thing, with the wrong part, there is a video showing the repair which I had watched. When I got the right part, the repair was basically the same as the video.

Took out the old and put in the new one...Water is back on!

I followed the video sent with the repair kit

Had a water leak on that valve for probably the last 7 or 8 years. Only noticed it when I had a huge water issue with a leaky faucet. Repaired that, went to repair the Sheetrock behind refrigerator and saw water in the tray under frige. Wiggle hose and realized that the reason the water on the front door would only trickle out was because the leak on that valve was also affecting the pressure on the front door. Unreal!! The website and video made it incredibly simple to replace, u guys rock, for real!!!

Watched the video. Extremely helpful. Replaced valve and now the water dispenser shuts off, like brand new. The valve must have had some calcification and would not completely close.

I called Parts Express, and explained my problem. The representative, She asked if I was getting water in the tray, and I was not. She said that if I wasn't getting water there, then my problem was probably the Dual Inlet Water Valve. I poured some water directly into the tray, and the ice maker made a tray of ice, and dumped it in less than an hour. So, I then ordered the Dual inlet water Valve. My ice maker is working perfect, and I am getting better water pressure from my water dispenser as well. Thank you for your assistance.

about an hour to figure out what was causing the vibration and noise and about an hour to put it back together and 5 min. to order a new fan blade thank you.It started making noise during thanksgiving dinner so we toke it apart after dinner and I cut the other 2 blade to match the broken one so to cut down on the noise and vibration semi put it back together and 7 days later the part arrived.

Original equipment valve ran from 2003 to 2010 until a mouse got on top of valve and did a number. Valve purchased in 2010 (installed to solve the same water flow problem occuring in 2012) was installed. I constructed a small tin shield over the valve unit in 2010 to protect the top of the valve from future possible damage. Two years later, the valve failed again - water flowing in freezer. (These Chineese replacement parts should really last longer than two years - I feel they insure future sales by making them poorly) - Both times, the outlet tube above the ice maker was completely iced up and a good deal of time was spent with a hair dryer to melt this ice. (This ice problem can be observed by looking across top of freezer compartment to observe the water outlet area. Turn off water supply and unplug fridge. Four screws were removed to get to the ice maker and then two top screws were removed to pull out ice maker unit (I left hose attached and unit hanging with some support) When installing the double valve, I blew on the loose water tube going up to the ice maker to be sure it was ice free. Taking the old double valve unit out was simple, just remember to press in on the plastic structure around the plastic tubes before pulling out the water tubes. Reattach electrical connections. Press the plastic tubes in as far as they will go for a water tight connection. Reinstall water supply hose and tighten nut. With ice melted, reinstall ice maker with two screws and the front ice maker panel with four screws. Plug in the fridge, turn on the water and you should have ice again as soon as the freezer gets down to 15 degrees.

The repair was fast and easy,the vidio you sent gave me the confidence I needed to tackle it.Thanks so much!

Water line to outlet water dispenser was frozen half way up the inside of freezer door. I scotch taped a bunch of plastic grocery bags on the interior left water dispenser door.I closed door with bags attached to inside door. I waited fifteen minutes and water was flowing again! First take off plastic coupler at bottom of front of refrigerator. Push plasic cup dispenser back, if water comes out of plastic tube at bottom front of refrigerator, then water valves are ok (if making ice is ok too). if light comes on at dispenser switch is ok also.

I just followed the instructions from the video attached to this order. Thanks to Parts Select for sending me the part on time and attaching a video showing installation.

Exactly as the instruction video said. I could have done it without the instructions but I would not have cut a piece off the two water lines and possibly had problems down the road. Also, I may not have figured out the easy way to remove the two lines from the valve body. I believe this is my 3rd time using your process and it's absolutely the best. I won't go anyplace else. Next project is probably replacing the ice maker.
