Jeff for Model Number frs20wnf

Answer Hello Jeff, You can test the water valve 218720500 to see if it is faulty. Using multi-meter check for 120vac to the water valve when the dispenser paddle is depressed. If you have 120vac then disconnect the water line and check to see if water is coming through the valve. If no water then replace the water valve. If no power then you want to check connectors going to the door to make sure that there is no damage to wires. Also check to make sure that the paddle is not broken and that the paddle is making contact to switch for dispensing water. 

Alan H for Model Number FRT24XHABO Frigidaire

Answer Alan, Maybe someone left the adapter 3206360 attached to the original fill valve ? The part number you supplied is the correct part needed based on the model number listed. If you have the 4318046 and it has worked correctly to this point, you could install the part you mentioned, but you'll need to be careful and take notes so you can install it correctly, it's for a different brand and style refrigerator. Good Luck and Thanks 

Ted for Model Number FRS24WRA

Answer Hello Ted. Check and see if the fill tube for the icemaker is frozen over. If so, and the icemaker is new, you will need to replace the water valve 218720500. If the tube is not froze over, you will need to test for power at the valve, when the icemaker cycles. If there is power there and the water does not come out, replace the valve. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html 

Jim for Model Number FRS24WSG

Answer Hi Jim. Physically 218658000 Should be located in the front, behind the toe kick panel. You wil need to check the coils resistence that ohms out to 130-145 ohms on one side and 350-360 ohms on the other side. There is also the diode kit that commonly has issues that is wired in-line to the water valves. This part is # 5303918287. Than you. 

Rick for Model Number frs22xgcb2

Answer Hello Rick. Check and see if the icemaker is overfilling. If so, you will need to test and see if the water continues to come in after the power is off from the icemaker to the water valve. If so, you will need to replace the water valve 218720500. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps.http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html 

Jim for Model Number FRS24WSG0

Answer Jim, You have a "dual valve" water inlet system, 218658000 is the main inlet valve and allows water into the fridge water system. 218720500 is the "ice maker fill valve. Were it me, and the fact that you had a seaping/dripping issue to begin with, I would replace both valves. But you could get by with the ice maker fill valve. 

Kj for Model Number FRS26KR4J

Answer KJ, You're guess is a great one, and you're probably 95 % correct. One way to verify the icemaker fill valve operation, is with a multi meterTJMA-DMT3. Disconnect the wires from the ice maker solenoid terminals, insert your meter probes into the terminal(s) of the harness and manually start the icemaker (Test CyclingRemove cover by inserting screwdriver in notch at bottom and prying cover from housing. Use screwdriver to rotate motor gear counterclockwise until holding switch circuit is completed. All components of ice maker should function to complete the cycle). When the "rake" arm reaches the 1 to 2 o'clock position, the fill valve circuit will be activated, and you should read 120 VAC across the wires to the fill valve. If you have the voltage, the icemaker and wiring are OK, and you need the fill valve. No voltage would be a loose or broken wire, or bad contact in the icemaker control module. Good Luck. 

Zap for Model Number MRS20WRG

Answer Hello Zap. You will need to hook the water dispenser to the yellow, and hook the icemaker to the green. Hope this helps.
