I replaced the water valve on this unit. Now, I don't get any water from the water dispencer and icemaker doesn't make any ice. Please advise.
Thank you

Answer Hello Ali. Check and make sure you turned the water back on after replacing the valve. If so, you may need to check the filter in the unit and make sure the water tank isn't frozen.
I think I have a bad valve. My water dispenser dispenses water very slowly. There's no problem with ice maker, and there's good water pressure from the source. I understand I should read 500-500 Ohms on the valves. I measured nothing on one valve, and <200 on the other.

Answer Hello Jeff,
The resistance of the valve is really beside the point because the electrical resistance has nothing to do with the physical/mechanical workings of the valve. If it's dripping and you haven't changed a water filter recently, the issue will be resolved by replacing the water valve. If you have changed a water filter recently, you have to throw about 2 gallons of water away to purge the air from the system. The water valve will not close properly with air in the system.
