Removed front lower grille- pull gently on each end.
Remove water filter.
Remove screws from housing and from support bail.
Push on round connector at water line and gently pull water line out of housing. Same for other line.
Check ends of each water line for roughness or cracks, cut off if needed.
Reinstall in reverse order and check for leaks.
It may be easier on some modeled to remove refrigerator rear lower panel to access water inlet valve so you can remove these same 2 water lines from this valve then remove them with the filter housing all at one time then check your water lines before installing on new housing and feed lines back to the water inlet valve and reconnect them.
BE SURE REFRIGERATOR IS UNPLUGGEDAND WATER TO REFRIGERATOR IS TURNED OFF BEFORE MAKING THESE REPAIRS!
