Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):
This refrigerator water filter cap is a durable black plastic component designed to secure the water filter in place within compatible refrigerator models. It functions as both a protective cover and a locking mechanism, ensuring the filter remains properly seated for optimal performance. The cap installs easily without tools—simply turn it clockwise to lock and counterclockwise to remove. A properly fitted cap helps maintain water filtration efficiency and prevents leaks or dislodgement during operation. This replacement part is compatible with select models and offers a reliable solution for maintaining your refrigerator’s water system.

Drinking water dispenser was flowing very slowly.
I first replaced the housing holding the water filter because during my effort to diagnose the problem I couldn't get the friction fittings to seal back up and they kept leaking. I hoped that replacing the filter housing would affect the flow problem but it didn't. I then replaced the valve. The replacement part was a little different
... Read morein design than the original part but wasn't too difficult to figure out. My guess is that the original valve has some kind of electric solenoid that wasn't opening all the way. New value solved the problem. No special tools or techniques were required. Just had to unplug water lines and electrical connectors and figure out the way to plug the new valve in.
Original part very poorly constructed .. Broke apart
Remove the old part with pliers and pulled out used water filter Installed replacement water filter on cap and installed in grill area below door Hooray !

I broke the old cap trying to turn the filter cc wise.
I installed the new cap on a new filter, which I will install when the old filter needs replacing. No tools required, but it is sometimes difficult to turn the filter cc wise, when replacing.

If i remove the water filter can I just screw the cap back in place? I don't want the filter. I have a whole house system. Will it leak with out of the filter housing?
For model number 10676239402
Hello James,
Thank you for your question.
Yes, you can run your fridge without the filter in place. Just insert the cap as you normally would minus the filter.
I hope this helps!

My water refiner (conditioner and softener) supplier advised me to remove my water filter because he said the water going into my refrigerator was now cleaner than what the filter would provide. If I remove the filter is there another part that I should install in its place and if so do you have that part and what is the part number?
For model number KSSC48FMS01
Hello Jason, thank you for contacting us. According to our research, if you choose to remove the filter cartridge, you do not need any other part to install in its place. Your model may be able to bypass by just removing the water filter and cap. We hope this helps.
