I have a GE Profile RR in my 07 Insignia. I want to be able to pull it out to be able to service it. I suspect it must be bolted in, probably from below the 6" shelf that it sits on above the tile floor. There is no visible access to the bottom of this shelf. Any helpful suggestions will be gratefully followed. Thanks.

Have you tried calling the RV manufacturer or who ever installed the fridge for some guidance?

If no one can help you... I have found that using one of those small electronic cameras or a cellphone camera can get into small tight places, take a picture that will allow me to see how something is installed or if it's damaged.

I have an 06 TS Select. I had to pull mine out because the water bladder that feeds the door is in the rear and it had ruptured. There are no bolts holding the refrigerator in place. You have to remove the cabinet style at the top of the refrigerator which is installed with a couple of screws. Once you have that out the refrigerator should slide out. You need to check the clearances to the cabinets on the opposite wall. I had to remove both refrigerator doors in order to have enough room to move it out of the hole. Once you have it out then you have to slide it to an open area where you can work on it. It is a two man job. Good luck.

Thanks, 4X4, as you appear to have provided me the ticket. I will only have to remove the right door, and of course figure out how to get to the cabinet style screws.

Thanks to all this problem was resolved in very short order. Cabinet stile was easily removed and Entegra Coach returned my call validating that the unit can be removed once the stile and doors as appropriate are removed.

That Profile fridge has Mother board issues if you ever hear it comin on and off like a fan is starting up. 145.00 repair have to pull fridge
easy to do

O5 select

unload fridge
take doors off
unscrew two long number 2 screws on right and left bottom
take plate from top off fridge,
put blankets down along with two nylon straps for lifting
unplug from below in basement to make sure your cord is free
slide out one person on each side use straps to lift and set down on blankets.

do a search for the parts on google had them the next day
Parts guys say that motherboard is weak and often fails
got a lifetime warranty on mine from Miami company thats also
nation wide

Help!
I am trying to pull my GE Profile and can not find the two screws in the bottom that secure it to the base. The top bracket has been removed and it won't budge. I've taken pictures and still can't identify the two screws that need to be removed.
Thanks for any input....

I don't think there are any screws in the bottom. Had two screws in the cabinet stile above the ref. Just have to remove that and it should slide out. At least that is the way mine is done. Top stile keeps it from tipping out. Good luck.

There are two hard to find screws in the bottom front of the RR. You will need a powerful light to find them. My unit is a 2007 TS Insignia. I was told the screws aren't there: they are. You will want to remove the grill to find the screws.

Thanks for all the replies. I have an 03 TS Select and there were no screws on the bottom holding it in place. I guess it depends on who was working on the line the day of installation as to whether they secured the bottom or not.
