The water dispenser on my GE drips after first use--that is, if I turn the water off, leave it off for a bit, then later turn it back on there is no drip. However once water is dispensed the valve starts dripping--about once per second.

I have tried cleaning the valve via the outlet tube using compressed air (a guess) and trying to flush it with isopropyl alcohol (a friend's suggestion). Neither cured the drip.

I have checked with the APP chat line and the representative there could not find anything about my problem and was referred to this forum.

So, I am looking for the part(s) number(s) that I need to replace--hopefully--with instructions how to do the job.

Any and all help with this issue is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the information and diagram both are most welcome. However this is my first attempt at replacing any refrigerator part, I assume (hopefully) there is a logical, non-destructive process to get at the water valve to replace it. Do you all have a disassembly procedure? I have no clue where to start.

Please note, I am adept with hand tools and have successfully repaired autos and computers. I presume that the freezer door is yet another 'logical' mechanical assembly. I am reluctant to 'hack' my way into the door: I may well make my situation worse than it already is.

Thanks, jladd
