GE Profile Refrigerator Door Dispenser Is Broken

Many GE refrigerators have an ice and water dispenser on the freezer door, which allows you to fill a glass with ice or water. The dispenser module, which physically dispensers the ice and water, may fail after regular use, at which point you will nee to remove it and install a new one. The dispenser is secured using only screws, and replacing it is a quick do-it-yourself project.
