Problem
Low flow from door water dispenser and slow ice making.
Tools
Flat and philips screw drivers.
Repair & Advice
- I found and followed a Youtube video. - - The difference was I had cut off the brass fitting on the end of the tube.
- My connection was a push type fitting. - I spent half the time cleaning out the fridge and removing shelves and covers, before I could replace the water "tank" coil of tubing.
- I think the root cause is in the plastic filter head wearing out over 5 years of use, and not allowing water to flow through the filter.
- I concluded that this was the problem by removing the filter and installing the bypass plug. This restored full flow. So I decided to purchase a new filter head assembly.
- if it were available, I could have just replaced the filter head and not the entire "tank" tubing.
