Easy repair, fit perfectly
Part delivered on time, solved water problems to dispenser.
Although the old tank was not leaking the tubing to the water dispenser was extremely brittle and broke into pieces.as I pulled it out. That would have caused a damaging problem.
I believe the compressor heat was to blame .

The right part! Water dispenser is Back in order!
It is a bad time when the water dispenser doesn’t work! I had taken out the original before ordering the replacement part.
It did take some effort but all went well and I had the new part installed in an hour. I am not an appliance technician. It is still working well a month later so I am satisfied that the water dispenser is good for another 20 years…

Happy wife happy live
I followed the video , it was on target. The part was easy to install and to connect 2 tubes. I used a wire hook to help with bringing the tubing to the front of the fridge for its connection. It took about 1/2 hour to install. Thanks ds.

Water Tank Assembly in the fridge developed a crack at the seam so tank assembly needed to be replaced
I watched the video a couple of times and followed the instructions exactly and the repair was very simple. This repair took me a bit more time than I thought it would just because I followed the steps methodically.

Replaced water tank for GE Profile side-by-side fridge
In preparation, I removed the bottom crispers and shelf to clear space, and removed the hood and items above the tank near the light. You'll need to also move the fridge away from the wall to access the back. Installation seemed very easy - two screws holding the tank itself, one hose to the water supply in the back, and another to the bo
... Read morettom of the freezer door to dispense. Then the hard part started after it was installed. First, I could hear the click but no water was coming out. After several views of youtube videos, I realized there was a plug in the hose to the supply side. Duh! So now I had water, but also a slow drip when drawing water. I believe the issue was that I was not pushing the hose on firmly enough, and eventually I got it right. Also, you need to understand the connector: there is a little ring around the place the hose fits; pushing it TOWARD the housing releases the hose, and pulling it back AWAY locks the hose it place. That was not clear to me without watching a youtube video.

The only problem I had was with my shut off valve. The part arrived in box, not in plastic bag, very loose in box.
I took the panel off the front and back in-order to do the work. Saw a lot of sticky dust on fan, which is very hard to clean. May need to replace fan. Other wise very satisfied with the part.

The water dispenser was not working, then the tank was leaking
The water dispenser was not working, but when I pressed the lever I could hear it attempt to disperse water. But when looking inside I could see that when I pressed the lever it was spewing water from the tank. I was not certain why it was not dispersing water, but I knew I had to replace the leaking tank. I found several YouTube video
... Read mores that described in detail how to replace the tank (and I highly recommend doing that). The removal and replacement was very straight-forward and that part took only about 30 minutes. But the time-consuming part was cleaning behind the refrigerator and cleaning the inside as well (since I already had most of the shelves out). Then once I got it all back together I tested the water dispenser and still nothing. So I disconnected the line coming out of the tank going up into the door and then tried again. This time water was coming out of the line. So at that point I was fairly confident that the problem was a frozen line somewhere in the door. After leaving it unplugged for a while and also heating the door with a hair dryer, I connected the line again and got water dispensed.

Water tank keeps freezing. Prevention???????
For model number PSC23MGMAWW
Hi Vernon,
Thank you for your inquiry. For certain refrigerators, the drawers inside refrigerator have their own temperature settings. Food inside the refrigerator will absorb the cold air. If the bins are set to the highest cold setting and they have no food or very little food inside them then the water tank will freeze. You should only use the highest cold setting if the bins are full. In general as well, if there is very little food in the refrigerator cold air will sink and stay at the bottom of the refrigerator and this will cause the water tank to freeze. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

I installed the water tank assembly, would never have tried without the video, great job. How long does it take for the frig to distribute water after installing? Also i have a slight drip from the control unit in the back where to water lines connect. I don’t see this part, can you provide replacement? Thanks again, videos are just great!!
For model number GE ZFSB23DNDSS
Hello Joe, thank you for your question, and feedback about completing the tank repair! The water should be distributed within a few minutes. Allow for a bit of time for the water to get back through the system. The part the water lines connect to at the back of the fridge is called the water valve. If there is a little water leaking from there it should be replaced. That part number is PartSelect Number: PS304374 and we have an installation video on that part as well! Good luck!

Hi! I have an odd problem. I can't get water out of the dispenser in the door but the ice maker makes ice. I disconnected the tubing from the water solenoid and water flows fine through the solenoid. As far as I can tell, the tank and tubing are the only things between the solenoid and the water dispenser.Is it possible that they are blocked?If so, should I just replace the whole tank assembly? Thanks
For model number GSS25WGTACC
Hi Mike, Thank you for the question. In most cases if the dispenser is not dispensing it is the Micro Switch. The switch can be tested for continuity with a Multi Meter. It is also good to have the filter replaced ever 6 months. Only way to know if the water tubes are blocked is to remove them and run water through them. Hope this helps!

The water dispenser tank on my GE refrigerator (model tfx20jrbbwh) has a crack and is leaking. The water dispenser tank for this model (part # wr17x3105) is apparently not available. Can i just eliminate the tank by running tubing from the inlet water valve to the water dispenser supply line or use a coupler to connect the in to out tubing to bypass the tank? If this would work, what size and kind of tubing do i need? Thanks for your help.
For model number GE TFX20JRBBWH
Hello Bill, thank you for your question. Yes, you can eliminate that tank by adding tubing and couplers. the water tubing connected to the water tank WR17X3105 is a 5/16" waterline. I hope this helps!

Longer hose from tank is leaking. Depending on where its leaking can it be bypassed w/blue connector? So I'd be cutting out cracked piece and putting ends in connector. Do you have part number for blue connector? Also do you charge for shipping?
For model number PSS26MGPACC
Hello Connie, Thank you for the question. Very sorry but I am not showing a Blue Connector but, If the line is cut straight, you should be able to use a Union, PartSelect Number PS758446. Hope this helps!
My fridge is 10 years old,and stop getting water and ice, any idea what it might be.
For model number GSHL5KGXCCLS
Hello Rene, Thank you for the question. This sounds like an issue with the Dual Inlet Water Valve, PartSelect Number PS304374. if the ice maker and dispenser are not getting water, the valve may be defective. Thank you for your inquiry, good luck with this repair!
What is the part number and can you sell me theplastic cover and foam that covers the water tank?
For model number gshl5kgxbcls
Hi Charles,
Thank you for your inquiry. We do provide the insulation tank foam. The part number for it is PS964273. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you and have a great day!
The water has a plastic smell and taste. Refrigerator is 15 years old and the water just now taste awful. The ice is just fine. Any ideas what might be wrong. I don’t use a filter since the water is filtered thru a reverse osmosis unit. Filters in the reverse osmosis unit have been checked and verified in good working order.
For model number Pss26mgpabb
Hi Glen, Thank you for the question. I suggest checking and flushing the waterlines. They can have a build up over time and if they have never been replaced or flushed in 15 years this maybe the issue. Hope this helps!

I am getting dripping water on the floor when we switch from cubes to water. there normally is a "click" sound when the change from ice to water is complete. If the "click" occurs within a couple seconds I have no leak. If the "click" is not heard, or occurs many seconds later, I still get water but then there is water dripping on the floor. Usually changing back to ice stops the dripping. I removed the kick-plate and can see water coming down the 1/4" water line and dripping onto the floor.
For model number GSS25GSHPCSS
Hello Chuck, thank you for writing. The Water tank Assembly part PS783769 is the first recommendation. Secondly, it could be a faulty Micro Switch PS8259956. We have a video for you to access. We hope to hear from you soon.
After installing water tank assembly, the tank only fills halfway because the pressure keeps building up.Kept priming it no avail.
it doesn't make no sense?
Hello Yana, thank you for contacting us, In order for us to locate the correct parts and repair information we will require the model number of the unit. Once you have located the model number please feel free to resubmit the question and we will be happy to help you. Look forward to hearing from you!
