Water dispenser is dripping at water&ice on door. I had to shut off supply to make drip stop. I was told the water valve (WR57X10051) needs to be replaced. Where is it located in the unit?

You will have to pull the fridge out so you can get to the back of it - once its pulled out enough to get behind it then take the back cover off and follow the water line going into the back of the fridge. the part that that line connects to is the water valve

Not difficult at all... there will be a few screws holding the valve in place and the wires just unplug from it but make sure to plug the wires back in the same way they came off. its very easy... the only thing that can go wrong is if you mix up the wires and then when you go to get water out of the dispenser it will fill up the icemaker instead but its really easy you wont have a problem
