I have a Kenmore side by side where the water dispensor is not working. All selenoids are working fine becuase if I unhook hose @ coupling @ bottom of door/hinge & I use the water dispensor, water flows freely in a bucket. (water is not delivered to the door dispensor & can't even blow into it to clear any possible blockage. Is there another selonoid or check valve in the door?

My gues is there is a kinked hose or blockage somewhere in the freezer door. has anyone had this issue & maybe have a schematic to show me how to pull the door apart to resolve this?

Many thanks.

Sounds like the water line inside the freezer door is frozen. Make sure the temperature in the freezer is not bellow 0°F and the door was not kept open. The best way to fix it is to open the freezer door and keep it open for a few hours or until the water line is defrosted.

This is our only refrig/freezer... do I have any other options? From the hinge at the bottom of the freeze door to the outlet, is there any other restrictions? (check valves, etc?) could I try to dethaw, melt any other way? I can not seem to find a schematic to see what is in the door.

The door is not serviceable, so this is probably the only what can be done.

You must set the temperature to lower. Or maybe it has a clogged drainage ito your despenser, use a wire to unclogg it.


May pilipino ba dito. I-pm nyo ako nang magkakilala tayo. Magtayo tayo ng samahan or grupo. Mag usap tayo sa internet. Or gumawa tayo ng forum na pang pinoy.
