Pulled the old seal out of the groove. Placed new seal in the groove. New seal has to be heated and massaged to get it into proper form so it does not leak. I have been continuously heating and massaging to get the seal to get it in the proper form. Been working on it for a week. Almost there.

Removed the water lines from the old base. Installed new base and reconnected water lines. Installed new filter.Turned on the water line behind the refrigerator. Opened Refrigerator door to watch for leaks. No Leakes. The new filter base was

Removed the old door gaskets by hand and attached the new ones by inserting the edges in the existing grooves

Most difficult and time-consuming part of the job was clearing the refrigerator of food and shelving. Replaced tubing as it had split in the factory bend of the tubing directly behind the water filter. Take your time and don't get in a hurry.

Easily removed the old gasket and put the new ones on exactly the same way the old ones came off but in reverse

SIMPLY REMOVE THE OLD GASKET PULLING LIGHTLY BY HAND
THEN PUSHING THE NEW GASKET BY HAND

Basically unhooked water lines and removed the screws

We had someone to come and look at it and we were told it was the solenoid valve. The repairman unstuck it for us and said when it does it again, he would have to order the part. We took it upon ourselves to order the part and DIY. We replaced the part that we were told was the problem and "guess what" it's still not fixed. It's still shooting out crushed ice. Will have to call repair guy back out here to see what we did wrong.

slide old filter out and insert new one

I removed the defective water valve. All wiring and tubing connectios were color coded.
It connected the water tubes and electric plugs to new water valve.
The water dispenser worked perfectly after I reconnected everything.

first, there many different water filters. your experience will be different according to your water filter type.

Removed exterior housing, sliding old unit forward to release. New unit went in easily. Caution wires don't get pinched.

After sending PartSelect the info to their troubleshooting dept. about my ice maker, they recommended replacing the ice solenoid. I did so at a cost of $102. No change, turned out replacing the ice maker(did not purchase from PartsSelect) was the issue and works fine now.

So wasted $102. FYI the part took 6 days to arrive.
