Common Symptoms
- Water leakage around the filter head or bypass plug
- Reduced or interrupted dispenser water flow after the filter is removed
- Ice maker or water dispenser does not receive water through the bypass path
- Bypass plug does not lock, seat, or engage properly
Check Before Replacing
- Confirm that the refrigerator is designed for the EPTWFU01/PureSource Ultra II filter system before testing the plug.
- Inspect the bypass plug and filter-head interface for visible cracks, damage, mineral buildup, or displaced sealing surfaces.
- With the bypass plug installed according to the owner’s manual, check for water leakage during a brief dispenser or ice-maker fill cycle.
- If water flow is poor, compare operation with the correct filter cartridge or approved bypass arrangement; do not force or modify the plug.
- If leakage or restricted flow remains with an undamaged, correctly seated bypass plug, inspect the filter head and water-supply system rather than assuming the plug is defective.
Pro Tip
A bypass plug is not a water filter; use it only when the refrigerator’s incoming water is already adequately treated, such as by a suitable whole-house filtration system.
