After I replaced the water filter, I was flushing the dispenser as directed and the water stop flowing, I checked to wires leading to the dispenser and there is no power going to them. The ice maker leads have power, and the icemaker works fine. What do you think the problem could be.

I'm assuming you checked the voltage to the water inlet valve?

Did you keep the freezer door closed while doing this test?

Is the ice cubes dispenser working?

Newhall,


I'm thinking,

Loose wire connection in the top of the freezer door hinge wire harness.

Possibly a bad water dispenser switch or actuator tab on the dispenser paddle, in the dispenser assembly.

At this point, that's where I'd start.

Good Luck,

:cool: :cool: :cool:
