Refrigerators - Answered Questions & Fixed Issues
For a GE refrigerator model GFSF6KEX, how do you remove the ice tray? (Not the freezer drawer, just the tray.)
To remove the ice tray from your GE refrigerator model GFSF6KEX, follow these steps:
Empty the Ice: Before removing the ice tray, empty it of any ice cubes. This will make it easier to handle.
Locate the Ice Tray: The ice tray is typically located in the freezer compartment, usually near the ice dispenser or ice maker.
Grasp the Bottom Edge: Stand in front of the freezer and open the door. Grasp the bottom edge of the ice tray on the sides. Be cautious not to place your fingers near the opening at the bottom front part of the bucket where the crusher blades are located.
Lift Up the Front: Lift up on the front of the ice tray so that it clears the stops on the ice bucket rail.
Pull the Tray Forward: Pull the ice tray forward and out of the freezer compartment.
Reinstalling the Tray: To reinstall the ice tray, follow these steps:
Line up the flange pieces on the sides of the tray with the channels in the ice bucket rails.
As you push the ice tray all the way back, lift the front of the tray so that it clears the stops on the front of the ice bucket rails.
Verify that the tray is properly inserted by pulling it forward. It should hit the stops on the rail and not come out. If it does, push the tray further back.
Check for Misalignment: If you're unable to push the ice tray all the way back, it might be due to a misalignment between the back of the auger (located in the tray) and the prongs on the auger motor (mounted in the back freezer wall). To fix this:
Remove the ice tray.
Close the freezer door.
Press the dispenser for cubed or crushed ice; you should hear a snap.
Open the door again and reinstall the ice tray.
Remember to handle the ice tray carefully, especially if it's full of ice.
Why internal lights not working yet panel lights do?
There could be several reasons why the internal lights in a vehicle may not be working while the panel lights are functioning. Here are a few possible explanations:
1. Blown fuse: Check the fuse box to see if the fuse for the interior lights has blown. If it has, replace it with a new one of the same rating.
2. Faulty light switch: The switch that controls the interior lights may be faulty or worn out. Try toggling the switch on and off to see if it makes any difference. If not, consider replacing the switch.
3. Loose or corroded wiring: Inspect the wiring connections for the interior lights. Loose or corroded connections can disrupt the electrical flow and prevent the lights from working. Tighten any loose connections or clean off any corrosion.
4. Burnt-out bulbs: If all the interior lights are not working, it's possible that multiple bulbs have burnt out at the same time. Check the bulbs and replace any that are no longer functional.
5. Dimmer switch settings: Some vehicles have a dimmer switch that controls the brightness of the interior lights. Make sure the dimmer switch is not turned all the way down or set to a very low level.
If none of these solutions resolve the issue, it may be best to consult a professional mechanic or electrician to diagnose and repair the problem.
