I purchased a #9915 replacement filter and can't seem to get it to turn and snap into place. Any suggestions or can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Seems so simple, but it just won't snap into place, very hard to turn.

nstructions 1. Twist the old filter a quarter-turn counterclockwise 2. Pull the filter straight out (don't worry, the water will shut off automatically) 3. Remove the reusable color-keyed knob from the end 4. Discard the old filter 5. Slide the knob onto the end of the new filter 6. Push the new filter into the fridge until it stops 7. Twist the filter a quarter-turn clockwise 8. Reset your 'change filter' light (if your fridge has one)

I ordered the replacement filters on Amazon when I purchased the cat box. I haven't had to use them yet, but I assumed they fit right into place. They are not the shape you see here, because I believe they tuck into the top. That is just the portion of the filter you see. Order the Catit replacement filters. They will fit.

I don't know if this helps, but , did you put the filter cup in properly? The only way I know for it to get stuck is if the handle of the filter cup and the orientation of the cup is wrong....I'm afraid that the only way to get it out is to pull until something gives.......wish I could help more

I am sorry to read that you are having problems. Mine was very easy to install with a full turn. The placement of the filter at the beginning has to be right, then twist & lock; maybe you should try priming it in your sink. Good luck. It can also be defective.....

I was finding it impossible to unscrew the old filter, too. Then I tried putting the whole assembly in a bowl of hot water for a few minutes, and that did the trick! I also gently slid the edge of a thin spatula around the circle where the filter meets the housing, if that makes sense. Not sure if that did anything, but the warm bath definitely helped. I was thinking I'd have to trash it and replace the entire unit before I tried the hot water. Hope that helps.

I ran into the same problem. With patience, and by turning it gently and carefully, I finally got it to come off. It helps to screw it on carefully, and evenly, however, it was often difficult to remove. I eventually got a different (slightly more expensive) filter and adapter ring. Good luck with it!

Mine works fine! I probably will buy another one soon. I Think you have to use this filter in order to work properly.

this DOES NOT fit in the model 04383!!! HOW THE HECK CAN I FIT THE FILTER IN?!? Why is this advertised for model 04383?!?

I recently purchased a new frigidaire refrigerator. When I went to install the filter it would not click in and stay in place and water leaked around the filter when we used the water dispenser. Upon close inspection, there was a crack at the end of the filter along an existing seam.

Try the Sharp 800 number or do an amazon search with the model number. I just bought this so I have not replaced the filter yet.

A few weeks ago I would have had the answer. Threw the old filters away (don't have part number). Just get the measurements from your old filters and match them up with the new and you will be fine.

I wish I knew! I'm sorry. I think you can look on ebay or look for a Zane industries for replacement parts. I don't think this is a really popular item anymore, though I wish it was. We never bought a replacement filter for ours, and by the time I realized that the one in our machine was burning-- it was too late. Sadly, because this was one good little machine. If you don't find Zane Industries, try Thane. Good luck!

Have you rechecked the "in" & "out" ports, or is there a packing plug? I'd remove the filter again, and blow thru the ports to see if that is where the ressistance is- ie: the filter or the Moeller top assembly. Let me know, Jim

Check to make sure it is going on the right rail. I had the same problem the first time I changed my filter.

I only know this filter works for me. You could try it and if it doesn't work, see if you can return it.

Randy, the same thing happened to me last year. It ended up being that the little nipple which the filter depresses against when screwed on had somehow chipped off. I ended up having to replace the entire filter assembly (which was quite easy to do).

I honestly don't know, what I did with mine is the filter part fit in my old handle so I didn't bother with the new one. I only wanted the filter part. Sorry if this doesn't help.
