We get ice, but not cold water. We hear solenoid water valve (green) to ice maker poping, but not solenoid water valve (purple) to drinking water nozzle. We by-pass the water switch (black) circuit in front to keep the circuit close all the time without switch on/off, the purple selenoid is still not open. We replace the new black switch, the purple is still close. We swap the cores between the green (working) and purple (may/may not working) soleniod valve, we still get ice but not water. Seems to me the circuit to the purple valve is short somewhere? Please suggest your trouble shoot? Thanks.

Maybe the water line going to the water dispenser is frozen.

Problem: No dispensing cold water, but ice.

Diagnostics: (1) Disconnect the cold water line (coil) and purge it; (2) Replace/by-pass the dispensing water switch (in front); (3) Swap the solenoid valve core (in the back) between water and ice valve. Still get ice but no cold water.

Notes: (1) Hear the selenoid valve on ice side poping, but not one on water side; (2) Front Switch Board, including light on/off, Ice cube/crush are working properly. Dispenser lock/unlock is working well for ice, but unknow for water becase no water dispensing all the time.

Please suggest your cause of proplem and how to fix it. Also, how to pretest a solenoid valve to make sure it working before put it in (replace)?

Thank you,
Charley.
