OEM Replacement. Why pay Sears Prices?
Rating by : clorox, 
This water actuator arm is listed as being a genuine OEM part. Amazon sells this part for less than half the cost at Sears.
Installation is easy, if you watch a YouTube video. (Just look up GE refrigerator dispenser disassembly to get a general idea.) The scariest part is popping the front housing plate off of the water dispenser. I'm always worried about breaking plastic retaining tabs, but this came right off.
You will need at least one medium-sized Phillips screwdriver. On the fridge I repaired, I also needed a smaller screwdriver to remove the pc board containing the panel switches. There was a ribbon cable running to this board, which I removed. To get the cable back into the board requires sliding open a plastic jaw clamp. (This type of connector grips the ribbon cable without the use of a female plastic cable-end. After seeing how the jaw works, it is probably something that could be opened with the board still in place.)
I would recommend this part sold by Caribbean Appliance. Quick shipping as well--it arrived two days earlier than I expected.
Perfect Match and Much Less Expensive than Sears!

This is a substitute replacement for my Kenmore refrigerator actuator arm. Sears price was $87, but I got it from Amazon for $40. It fit perfectly and I received it in about three days from ordering. I dreaded installing it because it looked like I would have to tear into the water dispenser. My concern, what if I dismantled the dispenser, couldn't put it back together and then had to call Sears?! So, I gave it a try.
I removed the drip tray but there were no screws at the bottom of the module cover like the instructions indicated. I had to carefully pry out the bottom of the cover, then push down from the top and the cover popped off, no problem. One issue, the cover was still attached to the dispenser module by a ribbon cord. I couldn't figure out how to detach it so I left it on. The cover just dangled while unscrewed the three screws at the top of the module. I carefully wiggled out the module and pulled out the water tube. Then the module pulled out further so I could work on it.
I detached the red/black wire plug and had to cut it because it ran behind a little box. I unscrewed two small screws holding the broken actuator arm side prongs and then removed the broken arm. There was a spring arm that I had to make sure was in front of the actuator arm front prong. It allows the actuator arm to spring back so it's not constantly turning on the water. It was an easy thing to do.
Placing the water tube back in the water tube hole in the dispenser seemed impossible. I struggled with it for awhile then realized it would naturally go back into place as I screwed the module back on the refrigerator. It turned out to be simple once I realized the tube would just go back in place. I checked the water dispenser hole once I put in all the screws and I could see the tube was good to go.
The entire job was easy. It probably took me longer than most folks because I was very cautious and fooled around with the water tube way too long before figuring it out.
Easy job, saved me hundreds by doing it myself. To have a repairman come to the house would have been $100 just for the person to get to the house. Then if anything needed to be done, that would have been lots more.

With the help of a You-Tube video, I was able to replace this part myself and saved an expensive service call from a repair shop.This part exactly matched the original arm (paddle) on my Frigidaire refrigerator. Took about 30 minutes.
