The dispenser off warning comes up even after I have changed the filter with a proper replacement. I could get water to run thru the filter and the ice maker works if I disconnect the the power from the refrigerator but this only worked for a short period the first two times I unplugged the frig. I have reinstalled the old filter that has just been 6 months and it no longer will shut off the warning either. My water pressure is not high and there is little resistance to push thru the new filter. I have tried two different new filter but neither worked to shut off the warning. How do I get the warning to shut off? Model GFE28GMKES

I have a GE GFE28GMKBES model fridge. I know how to see the set temp but how do I find out the actual temp inside?

Very disappointed. Purchased this refrigerator in 2017 & now 5 years later the freezer is not working. Repair person said it's the compressor. GE wants to send a service person for trouble shooting & charge me $110- just to look at it. GE doesn't stand behind their appliances. They offered no resolution. Five years is unacceptable to replace an applaince. **BUYER BEWARE**
