We have a continual problem with frost accumulating in the ice dispenser that blocks the ice. We have taken the dispenser apart, completely cleaned it out. It works for a little while and then frost accumulates again within 2-3 weeks. Help! Thanks!!

Air is leaking into the chute from outside. Time to replace the seal. Here's the part number. Part number: AP3672582

This parts breakdown may help. Remove the drip tray in the dispenser caviey. This will expose hidden screws, if there are any. The trim will then slide up and detatch from the freezer door. the rest of the disassembly should then be somewhat evident. Make sure you unplug the machine first.

There are no hidden screws. Does the panel with the touch buttons pull up/pop out? I don't want to break it, but there is no trim that easily slides up.

I didn't say it was easy. Just don't use tools that can mar the finish of the surrounding door.
