ABC2037DPS specifics — where the filter actually lives
Where the filter actually lives: in the fresh-food compartment, placement dependent on the dispenser package, the same estate every refrigerator in this family uses. It is a twist-lock bay: no tools, no housing removal, and the cartridge indexes in only one orientation despite looking symmetric.
The recurring owner notes: keep a folded towel under the bay before you open it; the line holds a cup of water even with the valve shut. What pins the parts choice down is the media line: the EDR4RXD1 media line; that is the anchor every compatible listing hangs from. Finish codes such as PS change the look, not the plumbing — order the cartridge by model, ignore the finish letter.
Reading the ABC2037DPS model code — what the digits tell you
By model-code convention the ABC2037DPS falls around 2014 to 2018; treat the dates as a working estimate, not record. Filter logic on this chassis: the ABC2037DPS family shares one water path, so the EDR4RXD1 cartridge fits the entire run.
Swap it in 5 minutes
- Twist the old cartridge a quarter turn counterclockwise and pull it straight down — keep a towel in reach for the dribble.
- Fill the new cartridge with cold tap water so the chamber is not fighting an air pocket.
- Offer the new cartridge to the bay, push up, and twist a quarter turn clockwise until the stop catches.
- Run two gallons through the dispenser to flush carbon fines, then hold the filter-reset control until the status light clears.

ABC2037DPS filter questions
Reset procedure for the change-filter alert on the ABC2037DPS?
Lock in the new cartridge first, then hold the reset control for a few seconds — the ABC2037DPS manual documents the button for each panel variant.
Does the Amana ABC2037DPS need a bypass plug when the filter is out?
The bay self-seals: with no cartridge the ABC2037DPS still dispenses, just unfiltered. No bypass plug exists for this line.
Are off-brand filters safe for an Amana refrigerator?
Certified aftermarket cartridges are built to the same NSF test standards as the OEM part, and federal warranty law (Magnuson-Moss) protects your coverage when you use them.
Why is the OEM EDR4RXD1 cartridge so much more expensive?
Part of the OEM price is the badge and the distribution chain. Certified alternatives meet the same test standards at a lower unit price, especially in multi-packs.
How often should I replace the filter in my ABC2037DPS?
Every six months or at the rated gallon capacity, whichever comes first — the EDR4RXD1 class cartridges all share that service interval.
Do I need to turn off the water supply to change it?
No — the bay is designed for a live swap. Expect a small dribble, keep a towel in reach, and flush a couple of gallons through the new cartridge before the first glass.
