Troy - Thanks for your question. It is not unusual to see a few drops of water dripping from the dispenser after having dispensed water. This is caused by pressure on the water line and changes in temperature causing some condensation to form and drip. The dispenser recess grill will catch this water. If water continues to drip long after the glass has been removed, service may be necessary. You can schedule service by calling 1-800-432-2737 or on line. I hope this helps! - Sheree with GE

Elmer M.Torres, if you are referring to the refrigerator I suggest checking the use and care manual. Our current use and care manuals can be downloaded from our GE website. Water dispenser temperatures cannot be set. Depending on your refrigerator model your unit will have a water reservoir in the fresh food section that chills the water or a coil reservoir that holds the water and it will not be chilled. Water temperature will change with each glass dispensed. I hope this helps. Alison

Hi, thank you for the videos, I was able to replace our ice maker auger with no problem a few months ago. However, our water dispenser doesn't work. The ice maker makes and dispenses ice just fine. I followed the video instructions, there are no kinks in the water line, and I just replaced the water filter. The door controls all light up and seem to work. I wonder if there is a pump not working somewhere. Is there something else I as a consumer can do, or it it time for the repairman? Thanks!

My water dispenser stopped working last night (GE GSS25KSW). I de-coupled the water line at the base of the freezer door, and when I do that then press the water dispensor, water flows freely out to the tube at the bottom of the door (but not up through the door to the actual dispensor when connected). I don't believe my water line is frozen but there may be some sort of blockage in the line in the door. Any thoughts?

Brand new fridge installed 2 days ago, still only a trickle from the water dispenser.Filter is new, water is on at the wall, and the water feed line brand new as well. All connections tight and without leaks. The door had to be removed to get through doorway so I checked under the hinge cap and the water line is not kinked and the electrical connectors all connected. Anything else I can check before calling GE?

I have a GE GSS23WGTA WW refrigerator. To the best of my remembrance, originally the Water Filter light and the Water light both were green. Then the Water filter light started turning orange. Before it actually turned red, I bought a new GE MWF filter. I followed the instructions and replaced it. Then I ran the required amount of water through it to purge all the air and do whatever else that water was supposed to do. Then I pushed the button under the water filter light for 3 seconds to reset it. It briefly turned red and then went off entirely. As far as I remember it originally was green until it turned orange. So I expected it to go back to green when I got a new filter. Can I assume that it's OK because it's not orange or red? It seems to me that it should have turned green like it was originally.Otherwise it seems to be working. The water flows smoothly at a good rate and the water tastes fine. But I am bothered by the fact that the filter light is off rather than green.

I had that same problem. I ended up spraying a 50/50 bleach solution with water into the water dispenser letting it soak for 10 min and then rinced it out with a spay bottle of water. I repeated it 4 times until it was completely clean. I noticed it accumulates alot of condensation there which makes sence why the mold after months or years of being there.

Hello hello I have a GSL325PVYV. This problem has happened before ages ago and LG kindly gave me a tip on the phone of how to sort but I can't remember the tip! So it's a non-plumbed model and the water tank got to empty before we refilled it which basically then creates some kind of fault so water is no longer supplied so no water and no ice...can you remind me of what it is we have to do to clear the issue?

Our GE French door Model PFE28KSKGSS is great however the water dispenser flow is getting slower and slower. We changed the filter and it flowed great for a week or so and now is again flowing very slowly. The appliance was purchased just 5 months ago and installed professionally. Why would it no longer dispense water in a timely manner?

I have had two service people out over a slow drip because the valve between the freezer and the dispenser isn't sealing properly. They suggested I stuff the shute with crumpled plastic bags so the valve is forced in the closed position AND just stop using the dispenser. It still leaks. Is there someway to disconnect the water supply to the dispenser while still allowing the ice maker to work?

We regret your experience, Dave! As this may be an issue with your water valve, service may be needed.

My GE Monogram does not dispense either water or ice. If I press long enough, I sometimes get one or two drops, but that doesn't really count. The lights on the console all work fine. I had a handyman inspect the water connection, and he did not see anything that looked obviously wrong. He suggested that I replace the filter, which I did with an official GE one. I then tried purging air (long pressing the cradle for 2 minutes), and powering the unit off and on again after 30 seconds. It still does not work. Do you have any idea what the problem might be?

Our water line kept freezing up. We recently moved and now it is working. Before I had to use hair dryer to unfreeze it. In doing so, the cradle that dispenses water/ice became wobbly and now you have to hold your cup in a specific place to one side to get it to work. Is it possible to just replace the cradle/lever that dispenses the ice/water and get it to work properly. I think the hair dryer caused an issue with it??

Hi Doug - if you have a filter bypass plug, install that and see if you can get water. If so, then it sounds like the filter is clogged (even a new one can become quickly clogged if there's sediment in the water line). If water is slow with the bypass plug in place, check for a kink in the supply tubing, a clogged saddle-valve, or poor water pressure. If the tubing and the saddle-valve are OK, then the problem is poor water pressure coming in. Check with your water company or plumber.

Thank you :-) I was unable to get any water to flow after putting in a new filter. I spent a month trying different things. I didn't think there would be a problem with the water supply, but when I pulled out the fridge I noticed the flex line was unrolled. It seems one of my cats must have wondered behind the fridge & got stuck in the coiled line. She must have stepped on the shut-off valve handle and turned it when backing out from behind the fridge. As soon as I turned the shut-off valve handle, the water line jumped, as it filled with water. I now have fast flowing filtered water from my fridge. :-) Thank you, you were very helpful to me :-)

My head scratch is just the opposite. I took the old water filter after six months and decided I didnt want to replace it b\c cost is so expensive. Well months later, I won't getting water through the dispenser any more, but ice maker worked fine. But eventually the ice not producing, too. I didn't think either of the issues were related to not using a water filter, though. So a few years later I decided to find out what was the problem with the water dispenser and ignored the ice maker issue b\c I figured it probably wld be costly. In my researching I saw where one person said he problem was solved just by putting in a new water filter. So I thought, "Beats calling a repairman." So I bought a new filter & found the exact kind that came with refrigerator...at a great price on eBay. When it came I took my vacuum & cleaned the water filter insert area out b\c it had been vacant so long I thought dirt, dust & trash may be in it connections. Noticing how filthy the coils were while cleaning I decided to give the whole underside a good hosing down. What a mess!!! I installed new water filter & press the button on panel & it registered green light, ckd the water dispenser, nothing. Oh, well. I still felt good for cleaning under my fridge. Surely it's running better & maybe quieter. To my surprise, 10 hours later out of curiosity, I ckd for water again without using a glass & I got WET!!! Go figure!!!!!! I hope the ice maker surprise me as well within the next day or two.

The water dispenser shoots water straight out onto the floor. There appears to be no obvious way to adjust the angle to avoid this happening. It is difficult to judge at just what angle the water is dispensed. Ice comes out correctly.

Hello. We really hate to hear you’re having an issue with water dripping constantly. That certainly isn’t the performance we would expect, and we want to assist. If your cradle may be stuck, service might be needed. Our service department can be reached at 1-800-432-2737 or online at spklr.io/6054lYxQ . As a temporary measure, you can stop the flow immediately by opening the freezer door. You can also unplug the refrigerator or remove the freezer hinge cover and unplug the dispenser wire harness at the top freezer door hinge; if you do so, unplug the refrigerator first for your safety. You’re also more than welcome to send us a private message over our GE Appliances social media (such as Facebook or Twitter) with the model number of your refrigerator. We would be happy to look into this concern further for you. We’re also glad to assist with any other concerns you may have, and we’re wishing you all the best. -SG

@geappliances
@geappliances 6 жыл бұрын
Hi Jack, After you change the filter the RESET WATER FILTER must be pressed and held until the red light goes off. On some models the light goes out, and others will turn green; either is considered normal. If you do not hold the pad in, the red light will stay on. Also, if you hold the pad in for a long period of time, the light will go off and then come back on. If this does not turn the red light off, having it checked by a service technician is recommended at 1-800-GE-CARES to schedule.

ge cares my ass! I am so fed up with this appliance (my fridge) and this company! the water line must have froze up on me literally 50 times in the 9 years I have owned it. I had to thaw and heat several times ruining my food. I tried their heating element kit (that they charge for). It worked for a while then it started freezing again. so I replaced it again just to rule it out with no luck. the problem is the design. there is not enough insulation/cold protection behind the freezer door right where the water dispenser tube is. I had some scrap siding insulation from my house ( the pink kind, not sure the r value) that I taped to the inside of the freezer door right behind the dispenser . this was the cure ! on top of that, my filter needs to be unscrewed slightly cause of where it meets the tabs that push in cause it is worn as can be seen in another video . I was about to call an attorney just cause of the aggravation! If your line keeps freezing and you have the heating kit, this is your fix. next time I will buy may tag or another brand and so should you. ge is terrible quality and worse customer service. their solution to every problem is to schedule a service call, never mind making it right. if ge is going to reply with the we're sorry comments, save it. I'm done with your products and I'll make sure to let everybody know how bad they are

Water line is freezing in mine too. I just changed the solenoid valve thinking that was the problem but it turns out that it was pumping water up until it for into the freezer door. From there on it was plugged with ice. I just got it going yesterday by thawing it out, and it's already frozen again. Bad design.
