Problem
Filters wouldn't allow water to flow. After researching the problem it was fairly clear the filter housing was the issue, not the filters.
Tools
10mm socket or nut driver
1/4" nut driver
Repair & Advice
1. Make sure water supply is off.
2. Remove the water solenoid mounting screws.
3. Remove kick plate at the bottom front of the refrigerator.
4. Remove the filter housing mounting screws.
5. Carefully and slowly pull the housing out toward the front to reach the 2 water lines. (Inlet solenoid must be free to allow the water lines to slide forward)
6. Remove the water lines from the filter housing (these are push to connect fittings. Depress the locking ring downward and pull the waterline out of the connection on the filter housing. Perhaps a small open end wrench that slides over the plastic water line will make it easier to depress the locking collar)
7. Fully insert the water lines into the new housing connections.
8. Reverse steps 5 thru 2 above.
9. Turn the water on and check for leaks.
NOTE: It is best to have a second person behind the refrigerator while moving the water lines in and out to help guide them in step 5.
Most difficult step was depressing the water line collars and holding them down to remove the lines.

Bought because the door piece was missing off the one on the fridge when we bought it from some one which cause water to leak.
