Normally when I push the button on the door with a glass, I hear the ice maker churning and ice falls down the chute and into my glass. Now I hear absolutely nothing. It is completely silent. Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I can tell you that the water on the door still works, but not every time. Sometimes I need to push my glass against the lever several times to make the water come out. I will never come out. Should I just buy a new switch? How much do they cost? Thanks again.

The lights on the control panel selector seem to work just fine and don't disappear when I try to get ice or water. Does the user interface board control other things as well?
