Drain Tube P-Trap Kit
This kit replaces the original 'duckbill' style drain valve which is prone to sticking shut or clogging with sediment. When the valve fails, defrost water cannot exit the evaporator area and eventually overflows into the refrigerator cabin or out the front. The P-trap design in this kit prevents future clogs and air infiltration while allowing proper drainage.

Water Filter Housing Assembly
The plastic manifold within the filter housing can develop hairline fractures due to water hammer or fatigue over time. If the leak is observed inside the refrigerator compartment near the top right, this assembly is the likely culprit as it manages the high-pressure transition from the main line to the filter.

Water Inlet Valve
This valve controls the flow to the icemaker and water dispenser. Mechanical failure of the solenoid or a crack in the plastic body can cause water to leak from the rear of the unit or cause a slow, constant drip at the dispenser tray.
