This tube supplies water to the ice maker and water dispenser If your refrigerator is leaking, or it will not dispense water or ice, you may have a damaged water line. When you replace the water line, you may want to pick up a new water tube union as well.

Broken water line
Remove water filter and water filter holder. Removed cover on back of frig. Removed clip where water line connects to back of water filter. Took half inch wrench pushed in on water line lock to release line. Repeat at other end. Reverse steps to put on new line. Easy repair.
1) Removed the screws from lower back plate 2) Removed the screws holding the plastic water lines in place (little plastic brackets - several of them) 3) Take a picture of how the tubing and what hose goes into what part - the 5/16" hose can go into 2 different spots - I didn't do this and I had to fix this 4) Pull out the hose "tabs" that lock the clamp into place (several) 5) Push in new hose 6) Put in clamp 7) I had to remove the filter on the inside of the fridge. Remove the filter, there is one screw that comes out, then you will have access to the hose clamps 8) Repeat for all the other hoses 9) Put the plate and brackets back into place (the picture really helps on how to orient and route the 3 different tubes 10) Test the water 11) Crack open a beer for a job well done
Super easy - take a picture! It will save you time!
I found a crack in the pex line from the valve up the back of the refrigerator to the water filter. I could not find the correct 5/16" size line locally to replace it. A guy in plumbing at Home Depot said he always repaired them by cutting out the crack and finding a piece of clear vinyl line that would fit tightly over the cracked pex to splice in a fix with hose clamps. I did that and it was a really bad idea. The line was obviously fatigued and failing because it just cracked further up and leaked again. I then looked up and ordered the correct line (actually both the supply and return since they were available). Installing the new lines was a breeze. The pex connectors are simple to disconnect and reconnect. Wish I had done that to start with. I looked for a youtube video for the proper replacement steps but all I found was a video of a guy who cut out a crack and stuck a pex connector in to replace the cracked section. By doing that he pulled slack from the valve end of the line which didn't exist and cracked the line again. I don't know why anyone would mess with patching one of these lines. The correct parts are available, cut to the right length, and removing and replacing them at the valve and the filter is dead simple.

I just ordered this tube. Want to be certain it is the right size. I need to replace the water line tube on the back of the fridge. It is white & smaller than what is at the Home Depot. All the tubes were the same size & I was told they are all the same for water lines. I don't understand why. Just a regular fridge.
