Description
Restore proper chilled-water dispensing in your refrigerator with the OEM GE Water Tank & Tube Assembly (Part WR17X10734). This assembly includes the internal water reservoir (tank) and connected tubing that supplies cooled water to the dispenser. Over time, the tank may crack, leak, or fail to chill properly, preventing correct water flow. Because water system components vary significantly between models, please check with your maintenance technician to confirm that WR17X10734 is the correct part for your appliance’s full model number and that the root fault has been correctly identified. appliancepartspros.com+3appliancerepair.homedepot.com+3geapplianceparts.com+3
Features & Benefits
-
OEM-specified tank and tubing: Built to meet GE’s original performance and fit-specifications, ensuring correct installation and function. geappliances.com+1
-
Integrated water reservoir and tubing: Designed to store chilled water and supply it efficiently to the dispenser, reducing wait time and leakage. appliancerepair.homedepot.com
-
Durable construction: Made with materials designed for repeated use in a cold-water environment—aimed at long-term reliability.
-
Cost-effective solution: Replacing a failing reservoir is significantly less expensive than replacing the full dispenser or appliance.
-
Straightforward installation (for technicians or experienced DIYers when compatibility is confirmed): remove the old tank assembly, install the new unit, reconnect tubing and test the dispenser.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
-
Water dispenser stops working or produces very slow flow, while the compressor and cooling components appear normal.
-
You discover leakage from inside the refrigerator near the tank/reservoir area or pools forming under the tank tubing.
-
The interior water reservoir appears cracked, distorted or no longer staying chilled.
-
The water tastes warm or is not chilled even though the fridge/freezer temperatures are correct—may point to failed tank insulation or circulation issues.
If you observe any of these symptoms, consult your maintenance technician to verify that the tank assembly is the fault rather than filter, valve, dispenser board, tubing or other components.

Compatibility Notes
-
Matching the full model number of your refrigerator is essential because even small variations in tank shape, connections and tubing routing exist across models. geapplianceparts.com+1
-
Replacing the tank alone will only resolve the issue if the rest of the dispenser/water‐supply system is functioning (filter, valve, tubing, sensor). If other parts are failed, the tank replacement may not solve the symptom.
-
Installation typically requires disconnecting power and water supply, removing panels to access the tank assembly, draining residual water, activating purge or reset after install.
-
After installation, run the dispenser to flush air and test for leaks; monitor over next 24 hours to verify proper operation.
