  • @dizdizzle
    @dizdizzle 10 месяцев назад +1

    At approximately 1:05 in the video, there is a shot displaying the compartment. Inside the compartment there is a yellow thing in the lower half.
    My question is, is this yellow sticker type thing supposed to remain in the compartment or is it something that is used to keep the filter in place during shipping? I'm asking because whenever I replace my filter this yellow thing always gets in the way of the new filter and I have to use something to move it out of the way in order to install the replacement filter.
    I've tried to remove the yellow thing completely, but without disassembling the filter housing it's next to impossible. Is the yellow thing a necessary part to ensure the filter is seated snugly or can I safely remove it so I don't have to push it out of the way each time?

    • @abtelectronics
      @abtelectronics  10 месяцев назад +1

      @dizdizzle We checked the other models on the floor and it looks like part of the insulation as we saw it in a number of other models. We're checking with Frigidaire to see if they can shed some light on it as well.

    I smell something burning right after replacing it and also trickling water although I do not have my Frigidaire hooked up to a water system. Is the smell and sound of trickling water normal?

    • @abtelectronics
      @abtelectronics  2 месяца назад

      @Deew.5634 That is not typical. If you don't have your refrigerator hooked up to a water supply there shouldn't be any water coming from it. Also, you won't need to use a filter if you don't have a water line hooked up. If it was purchased from Abt please give us a call at 800-860-3736 so one of our technicians can help figure out what is going on.

    We can easily remove the current water filter, but the new one will not click in. The original one clicks back into place. We tried 3 brand new ones and none will click back into place. Any thoughts? We confirmed the exact model #

    • @abtelectronics
      @abtelectronics  Год назад

      @carl grier If it's not clicking into place, check the nozzle on the new filter to make sure there isn't a cap that needs to be removed. Occasionally they'll have a piece on the end that protects it during shipping. If your refrigerator was purchased from Abt, you can take advantage of our free technical support and talk to a technician over the phone as well. Just send your contact info to youtube@abt.com and we'll have one of our technicians reach out. Or you can contact the store directly here: www.abt.com/help/contact-us

    What if the filter leaks when it’s clicked into place but only when it’s in there?

    • @abtelectronics
      @abtelectronics  Год назад

      @dannybardon2934 It could be that there was a little water that leaked in the process of removing the old one and installing the new one. If it continues to leak we would recommend removing the new filter and re-installing it to make sure it is seated properly. Also, check the rubber gasket at the tip of the filter to make sure there are no cracks where water might be escaping.

    • @abtelectronics
      @abtelectronics  8 месяцев назад

      @sushilavirupsnnavar8501 Most refrigerators do not require you to turn off the ice maker to change your water filter. It's best to consult your owners manual to be sure for your particular model.

  • @RW-zh7kl

    Our Fridgidaire "replace water filter" light came on when we never even had water hooked up to it. We literally ran no water through it and the light still came on to replace the filter.. that seems really shady to me esp since the filters are like $50 bucks a piece.
    But thanks for the helpful video!

    • @abtelectronics
      @abtelectronics  Год назад

      @RW-zh7kl The filter light is on a 6 month timer on most refrigerators which is likely why it's turning on. To turn it off there should be a button on the display you can hold down for 3-5 seconds. But this only resets the timer. You'll likely need to repeat that process every 6 months.

    Do you know how to remove the filter if it's stuck. I pushed it but it never released. I've been looking but I can't seem to find any information on that😢

    • @abtelectronics
      @abtelectronics  5 месяцев назад +1

      @tricyloft9038 It's possible that you're not pushing the filter in far enough. It can take a little more effort than you may think necessary. Once you push it in far enough the filter should release from the housing and slide right out. If you're shorter in height, sometimes standing on a stepstool to give yourself more leverage can help, just be very cautious and don't lose your balance.
