Hello,
I have a water dispenser not working and no water to the ice maker. I checked the voltage at the water solenoid. Showing no voltage, I assumed the circuit board was bad. I just installed a new board and still no ice/water. While attempting to check the voltage again at the water valve/solenoid, a transistor on the board popped. Upon closer inspection, the same transistor on the original board was also damaged in the same way. I know I need another board, but what could be causing the repeated damage to the transistor? The water valve stopped dispensing water in the door initially and some time later, the ice maker stopped. Is it possible that the water valve/solenoid is damaging the board? Or perhaps the ice maker itself? Any advice would be greatly appreciated before I destroy another board.
Thanks

Thanks for the reply richappy. The online manual does list a foil heater for a replacement part so I am assuming that it has one. I will check it out and test for a short. I am a little apprehensive about installing another $150 board!
