WATER FILTER CHANGE REMINDER

For some refrigerator models featuring water filters, the Water Filter Change Reminder function monitors the life of the filter and provides a reminder when it is time for the filter to be changed. When the system detects either 12 months of usage, or the filtering of 416 gallons of water (whichever comes first), the change filter indicator light will illuminate. This

indicates that the water filter should be changed and the light reset. To reset Change Filter Light:

Press and hold the LIGHT and LOCK pads until the CHANGE FILTER light blinks (approx. 3 seconds). The control is now reset for 12 months or another 416 gallons.

Red light on the control panel is lite, and will not dispense ice or water.

Hello Theresa, thank you for your post!
Based off the information you have provided the light on your control panel is red and it is not dispensing water or ice. The red light means the filter is 100% used up and needs to be changed out. When the filter is dirty it will not allow water or ice to dispense or produce. You would need to purchase water filter WF3CB as a proper replacement filter. You can visit your manufacturer's website for assistance with purchasing that replacement filter. I hope this is helpful information for you. -Matt

I just installed the water filter in the fridge but the light on the front door panel still shows red

This is another one for the user manual! Always check it first. It would seem likely that the system is either time or water flow controlled. By this I mean that somehow your little red light is caused to light up. For example by a little device which can measure how much water you've used. This device could need resetting.

Try contacting manufacturer

Have changed water filter, but indicatot panel calls for order h2o filter, and comes on every time we dispence water. why?

Most models also have a filter indicator reset button located in the same area. After changing the filter, reset the filter status light by pressing the Filter Indicator Reset button or by pressing and holding the Filter button for 3 seconds. The status light will change from red to green or the status display will change from "Replace" to "Good" when the system is reset.

If your model has a water filter indicator, but no reset button, press the light switch in the refrigerator compartment 5 times within 10 seconds to reset the system. The status light will change from red to green when the system is reset.

How do you turn off replace filter light on freezer door panel?

If you're referring to the water filter indicator light that goes from green to yellow to red when it's time to change the filter, you press and hold the WATER FILTER button down until it blinks 5 times. The indicator light will change from red to green when the system is reset.

Where is the reset button for the ice and water after you have changed the filter

On models with a Filter Status or Filter Reset light/button, it is part of the water/ice dispenser panel. The button will be just above the light (usually to the left of the other buttons). Press and hold the button for at least 10-15 seconds until the green, amber and red lights flash.

Other models just use a sticker that should be placed on the front of the filter cup.

I hope this helps.

How to change the water filtration light from red to green?

On mine, there is a button combination that resets the alarm. Yours may be different. The bottom buttons, one left, the other on the right. Mine say "ice type" and "child lock". Holding them both in for ~5 seconds resets the alarm. Try this.
Best regards, --W/D--

Can't identify "water filter indicator light"

the indicator light could be on the control panel inside the refr section if your controls are there, or it is most likely on the front of the dispenser panel. it only comes on when you draw water from the dispenser and thats when you will see it be green, filter ok, yellow, filter at 80% life, or red, time to replace the water filter.
also you dont need to shut off the water when changing the filter as it is made with a shut off device in the filter housing already and is automatic.
by the way filters are expensive, go online and check prices. google "water filters" and find a good price.
