panel lights are lit, and buttons work (the light goes off momentarily), but water does not work, and ice cube dispenser does not work. Also the illumination light does not work. Ice cube maker makes ice, and dispenser rotor is free. Trouble started after getting about 3 or 4 bowls of ice, one after the other. Also, do not know how to get at the interface dispenser assembly to inspect it for burn out. Can anyone help. Perhaps it is not in the dispenser panel, but some other part is the trouble?

When you say the light goes off momentary do you mean when you try to dispense ice?

If so this is almost always caused by a faulty main board (motherboard). Try the dispenser and take note if the entire refrigerator seems to momentary shut down and if so the main board is the problem.

[FONT='Times New Roman']What happens is the low voltage part of the board will drop out (dip below normal) when the dispenser is used. [/FONT]

I had the same problem and it turned out to be the wiring connection under the freezer door.

Thank you for your help on this one. I bought the motherboard from Appliance Pros, installed it, and it solved the problem. Appreciated the very fast responses to my problem, and the very fast delivery of parts, (ordered at 2:00 PM on a Monday, and had the part at 2:00 PM on Tuesday.
