I have been working on this whirlpool gold frig for about 2 months, water dispenser is intermittently not working , I assume ice maker also loses supply, however supply is not lost for a long enough period of time to effect ice maker, so not sure, it can come and go in minutes or seconds , valve is getting voltage , but was replaced any way to rule out it was not opening. micro switch is also functioning . You can hear it trying to get water out, but nothing comes, moved temp up to 40 in frig and 4 in freezer to rule out freezing, its as if there is something blocking flow intermittently and randomly in line, but will not stay that way long enough to isolate issue?:confused:.

My past experience with freezing water lines shows that when that is the issue it does not resolve itself (come and go so quickly, usually requiring a thaw out period?).
Thanks greenxs

Hi.

Next time when the problem reoccurs, remove the bottom grill and disconnect the water line coupling.

Check if the water will be coming from the line.

This way you can narrow down the area in question.

Good luck. Post the results.

Simon.
