Water dispenser quit working. Ice maker kept on OK. Replaced the filter anyway but no joy. Pushed the water dispenser for several minutes, heard gurggling and then dripping as it flooded the floor and then into the basement... Found a broken water line in the bottom back and tried to patch together with parts from Lowe's but, well, no joy. The water tubes were so brittle I suspect I should replace as much as I can reach without breaking something bigger. What parts would you suggest and how far should I go? Thanks, Michael

Hi Michael,

You may want to replace this water line from the water inlet valve to the spot where it goes inside the body of the refrigerator. You have to leave as long of old tube as needed for proper connection with the new tube. You also will need at least one water connection union fitting to connect two tubes.

- The 5/16" fitting Part number: WR02X10471
