### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Follow instructions or watch video on YouTube & be patient
*by D***M on April 5, 2023*

Update: bought in April 2023. It's now Nov 2024. This thing is still working perfectly. So happy that I got this. Once installed properly, I really recommend this to anyone having this issue with their refrigerators. 6 stars if I could!!! Very initial review and install is a success. Before installing, I watched 3 different YouTube videos by 3 different users. All pretty much the same so I was confident in the install. One note if you're going to give this a try, make sure you have waterproof silicone and alchol wipes (IPA) on hand to properly prep and seal the area around the water outlet tube. This "should" prevent water or condensation from escaping into the area where this heating foil element will adhere to. I unplugged the fridge, just in case; even though we're only dealing with low voltage for the install. Better safe than sorry. Last few notes once you've successfully installed this, is WAIT. Give this a few hours to heat and thaw out the frozen water hose in the door. When you're done with the install and fridge powered up, you should be able to see and reach behind the black cup cradle with a finger and feel the heating element is hot. If not, check your wiring again. I didn't time it exactly, but I'd guess 3 to 4 hours for my water dispenser to working. Lastly, be aware that the 2 white wires from this kit does not end up blocking the pop-up ice door when you reinstall the brackets and panel. I used electrical tape to route the wire away from the door and zip-tied the excess to the wire harness. After 10 years of ignoring and thinking it's useless to fix a GE manufacturer design flaw. I was successful once before, by spending hours trying to thaw the water line with a hair dryer, only to have it freeze the very next day. Hope this is a permanent fix! Will update if it fails.
