In my GE fridge GSH25SGRBSS, the water dispenser slowed down over a period of months down to a very slow trickle. Replacing the $40 filter changed nothing. Eventually the trickle has stopped completely. Also, the ice dispenser has stopped making ice. I checked the water line where it enters the back of the fridge, and it has full water flow with no blockage. Is there some other place within the fridge where there could be a blockage of calcium or something that I could locate and clean myself?

Look at the back of the fridge where water line connected and you should see a water pump which is most of the time goes bad .Just buy a new one and replaced and you should be fine

SOURCE: water from the in the door water dispenser

disconnect the line to the water dispenser at the water inlet valve on the back where the water supply comes in and try the dispenser. If it comes out good here Your water line could be frozen in the door. You can disconnect the line under the unit before it goes into the door at the bottom hinge. Push the dispenser button and see if it comes out there. If it does leave the door open till it thaws.
A strainer before the inlet valve can also get stopped up restricting flow.

SOURCE: GE WATER DISPENSER RUNS SLOW AND GIVE WARM WATER

With the refrig , you should have gotten a small bypass piece which fits in place of the inside filter . Install this to see if the filter is good or not . Water faster , replace filter , still slow , possible water valve problem . Also use a connector usually a 1/4 x 1/4 compression fitting , to bypass the outside filter for test purposes only .

Hello, Thank You for using FixYa. I will be helping you today.Have you changed your water filter?If you have one it will be inside the fridge or on bottom in the front. This also happens when the water pressure is to low going to the unit from the house. If all those are ok make sure the tank in the fridge behind the drawers is not frozen,You can use a hair dryer to thaw out the tank
Thank You and please rate my answer if it was helpful...

GE GSL25IGRE BS slow water dispenser

Sounds like your water valve may need changing, and has filled up with sediment, slowing the water flow.

Ge profile refrigerator slow water dispenser

you have a seperate valve for ice maker and water dispenser, though it is possible both could have debris preventing proper water flow, i would check the water pressure you have going into the valve solenoid housing. turn off water to fridge, disconnect the line at the fridge, not in basement at saddle valve. place end of tube in bucket, turn on water. how is pressure? good or slow? if its good, then you probably do need to replace valve solenoid housing. You can NOT clear debris out of these, they must be replaced.
If your water pressure is still not good, either y ou have a kink in plastic water line. Despite having changed saddle valve in basement, if the stem of saddle valve is mounted on bottom half of pipe, debris from pipe is getting into water line and so on. You can reply here or send me a question from my website: www.FixMyFridge.net

Low water flow after changing the water filter in a gf profile re

Just a suggestion, you could try installing a filter on the water supply line to the fridge. A nice one should dramatically lessen the frequency of replacing the one in the fridge. As for your the pressure being low, look for a kink or pinch in the water supply line.

Water dispenser no longer dispenses water. Ice maker still works

Has it stopped completely or just slowed to a trickle. If a trickle you need to replace the filter. If stopped either the feed line to the fridge has been pinched/shut off or the internal line has frozen, or the valve is no longer functional.
