Side by side Whirlpool refrigerator / freezer with ice & water dispenser. Noticed water coming out of bottom of refrigerator and found the leak at the "solenoids". Appears water is coming from the solenoids - not the plastic connection to them. Do I have to replace the whole solenoid system and circuit board they are attached to? How do I un-attach the plastic lines to and from the solenoids? Thank you.

Hi.

If the body of the water valve is leaking you need a new water valve Part number: W10159839
Part number: W10159839


To remove the tube press the sleeve around it and pull the tube out.To install it back push it in all the way.
You may want to cut off an inch from the end of the tube before inserting it.

Here are the breakdown diagrams and Icemaker parts for Whirlpool GD5NVAXSY01 - AppliancePartsPros.com

Post the results.

Simon.
