The water & ice dispenser isn't working at all. No water/ice comes out, no lights, the buttons don't do anything, nothing at all. It started with the line to the water dispenser coming loose from the spout. A friend decided he would fix it, and during the course of this attempt, one of the circuit boards was dropped in a puddle of water. When it was reassembled, it had ceased to function. I'm assuming the board is now dead and needs to be replaced, but it's been a while since this happened and I can't remember if it was the power board or the switch board.

Is there a way to test them to see which is bad, or does the fact that it does nothing at all indicate which it would be? Or could it just be a coincidence, and it's something completely different?

And, on a related note, what's the proper type of adhesive to use to glue the water line back into the spout?

Thanks

If there are no lights in the dispenser then the power board has to be replaced.

I did not get clear where the water line was loose. Can you refer to the diagrams bellow please?

Thanks for the info. I'll purchase the power board, then.

The water line came loose from the little external spout that the water actually comes out of. I think it would be the hollow conical part on the Module-Dispenser. It looks like it was just glued in place, but the adhesive broke. I can post pictures of the actual unit if need be.

Thanks again.
