Some GE refrigerator filters (GE RPWFE and GE XWFE) contain an RFID chip, which is required by the refrigerators that use these filters to authenticate that a genuine GE product is being used. For this reason, third-party replacements such as the FF21130 and PH21140 will not work as replacements for these filters (they will work as replacements for the prior versions of these filters, RPWF and XWF respectively,  in refrigerators that do not require the RFID chip, but most newer models of GE refrigerators will need the updated filters).

If your refrigerator filter light does not turn off after changing the filter, it may need to be manually reset. The process for resetting the filter light may vary depending on the brand of the refrigerator. Please choose your brand from the options below. If you do not see your brand listed, you may need to contact the refrigerator manufacturer for instructions to reset the light.

To flush your water filter:

Grab a large container that fits in the water dispenser of the refrigerator (this can be a large measuring cup, a large drinking cup or anything big enough that conveniently and comfortably fits into the dispenser)

Position the container in the water dispenser and press in to begin dispensing water and fill the container

The number of times you will need to fill the container depends on the type of container you are using. For example, if you are using a 4-cup measuring cup, you will need to fill it four times to make 1 gallon. Remember: four cups equal one quart and four quarts equal one gallon.

Discard the water into the sink. You can reserve the water for watering any plants (tiny carbon bits will not harm the plants)

Repeat steps 1-3 until you have flushed 3-5 gallons of water

For specific directions to flush your refrigerator water filter, check the owner&rsquo s manual. Instructions can vary slightly depending on the type of filter you have, so the owner&rsquo s manual will be the safest way to ensure all installation and set-up processes are followed correctly.

Occasionally a filter will not fit into the filter slot right away. You may try it several times before the filter finds its slot and raises itself into position.

Another consideration is that the incorrect filter was purchased. Please use our filter finder tool to ensure compatibility.

Check to see if the icemaker is level, both front and back, and left to right. If the icemaker is not level, water will overfill into the bin.

Check to see if the water line is kinked.

• If water flow to the door is also reduced, remove the water filter, if flow increases, replace the filter.

The icemaker must cool down to 10° F (-12° C) before the control module will allow water to come into the icemaker. It may require several hours for the icemaker to chill down to 10° F (12° C). The icemaker will add 140cc&rsquo s of water for about 8 seconds, then allow time for the cubes to freeze.

If the icemaker shut-off arm is engaged, and it will not shut off, replace the icemaker.

A kinked or bent refrigerator water line will cause the water to flow slowly to the water inlet valve. Also, be sure your fridge water filter is replaced every 6 months as a clogged fridge water filter can cause low water flow leading to hollow ice cubes.

Typically, refrigerator filters need to be replaced every 6 months or 500 gallons of water, whichever comes first. If you have harsh tap water at your house, you may need to replace your filters more often. You may also want to replace the filter if you experience a decrease in water pressure or a bad taste or odor such as chlorine.

If water or ice is not dispensing, the new water filter you installed may not be fully seated, snapped into place, or screwed into the filter housing. If the filter is not fully threaded/connected into the housing, low flow or a trickle can occur. Make sure you have the filter tightened properly. Remove the filter completely and reinstall making sure it is tight. Try also reinstalling with a bit more pressure than normal.

If you feel that it is, and you' re still having issues, it could be the water valve leading to the refrigerator. To check, reinstall the old filter to see if it works.

Refrigerator water filters trap large contaminants and prevent them from getting into your drinking water. If a filter is not replaced according to the recommended frequency, these impurities can start to build up and get into your drinking water, which can lead to several health issues. Most filters need to be replaced every 6 to 12 months.
