All Installation Instructions for General Electric Refrigerator ZIS48NCA

Bad switch for door prevented interior light from coming on

Just as your video described, although due to the age of the fridge, it took a bit longer to remove the defective switch. Your video made this so simple, I can't imagine why we lived with a dark fridge for so long! I was ready to buy a whole new fridge, as repairmen are often nonexistent for small repairs. I am the biggest fan of your company & it's repair video. THANK YOU SO MUCH

Leaking valve body cracked along the mold line

Removed the rear cover, with nut driver to expose the inlet valve assembly turned of water supply and removed water input line using and adjustable wrench, using a nut driver removed the bracket holding the valve assembly in place. There are two valve assemblies and the outermost one is the inlet assy. the two assemblies are connected together by two brackets one each side of the assemblies remove the two Phillips screws on each side of the inlet valve assembly and remove the two tubes by pushing inwards and twisting anticlockwise at the same time then pull them out. having done this you can remove the power source to the valve assy. easily. Install the new valve assy. in the reverse order to the above when reconnecting the input water supply you must use the white PTFE tape around the threads of the water input connection to avoid any leaks turn the water supply back on then check for leaks and replace the rear cover. This repair was easy and took about 45 minutes start to finish.

would not "dump" ice cubes

I am more than 80 yrs, always thought I could fix just about everything--but, this looked complicated. Once I received the new icemaker; took a good look where the screw-holes, etc. were, then removed the "old" one. Took about 20 or 30 minutes, then the "new" one was easily installed.

Frezzer would freeze up, refrigerator stayed cold, solved the problem. Now the refrigerator seems to be running more than usual.

Checked the defroster coil which is located behind the rear panel in the freezer compartment, it was still working. Followed the schematics down to the defrost timer, which is located in the lower front of the refrigerator and tried that. Plugged in the new part and the problem is solved.
