Default Replacing water dispenser reservoir
Brand: General Electric
Model Number: PSC23SGN
Age: 5 - 10 years

My water dispenser reservoir had developed a crack in it that water sprayed out of whenever we tried to use the water dispenser. I went online and got a replacement one shipped to me and am trying to install it. I have gotten the old tank unscrewed from the back refrigerator wall but cannot get the pressure connectors to the old plastic water lines loose. How do I get them to release without busting them? Where can I get new ones if I break the old ones as they are not listed as a replacement part anywhere I can find.

Push in on the tabs, and pull the tank out. Tom ApplianceEducator.com

Did it and was able to reuse the connectors. Also, had a problem with the line within the freezer door that feeds the dispenser freezing up or sticking. All I have had to do is to unplug the line at the base of the door and let the water run out from the door, and it has freed up.

Thanks for the help.
