GE Profile 25.6 Cu. Ft. Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Thru-the-Door Ice and Water - Stainless-Steel Questions & Answers
How do I shut down the water flow to the ice maker
There are three ways.
1. Shut water off to the fridge via plumbing valve.
2. Lift arm on ice maker or use on/off switch depending on ice maker model.
3. Unplug ice maker wiring harness. It won't be able to call for water.
It depends on why you want the water off. A make and model of the fridge would help so I can give you a more specific answer.
How do mi check the freon
Refrigerators don't need freon added to them unless there is a leak and until you find and repair the leak you have not fixed the problem.
A lot of people think when their refrigerator is not cooling that they need to add freon. This is not normally the case 99% of the time. You are a lot more likely to have a defrost problem or a fan problem if your refrigerator is not cooling.
If you actually do need freon, call a reputable professional. There are a lot of guys out there that will just add freon because you told them it needed it, charge the heck out of you and then leave. Be careful about telling some jack leg that you need freon.
GE side-by-side refrigirator icemaker doesn't work
The water valve is what sends the water into the ice maker. You can try defrosting the icemaker by removing the screw usually 1/4" two located on top of the ice maker and one located down below and unplug the electrical connector. Once you have removed the ice maker turn on hot water in your sink and place the icemaker under the hot water for about 3-5 minutes assuring there is no ice build up on the icemaker and clearing the ice tray as well of any froozen cubes. Half of the time this does work to bring an ice maker back to functioning whereas the other times it is far easier to just replace the icemaker as a whole rather then replace pieces in the icemaker. It is also far less costly to replace the ice maker as a whole then individual pieces. If you have any further questions message me back.I await your replyThank you,Rickp.s after defrosting the icemaker assure that you do not still have water pouring into the icemaker and overflowing the icemaker whereas if this were happening this would be due to the solenoid not closing on the water valve and you would have to replace the water valve.
