Broke Fridge for Model Number FRS26LF7DS7 I have a Frigidaire model FRS26LF7DS7. The other night while getting water we heard a loud pop and smoke started coming out of the water dispenser front panel. Nothing would work on the dispenser and none of the lights would come on, on the front panel. We replaced the circuit board and everything seemed to be working. Water dispenser and lights were working. But then we noticed there was very little, to no ice being made. Also the water dispenser started to randomly squirt out water throughout the day and night. This is completely different than leaking. The water would spray out in a stream. From researching on line it looks like what needs to be replaced is the refrigerator fill valve diode. Part number 5303918287. Does that sound correct? My other question is, I don’t see this part number listed as being a part for my model number. I just want to make sure this part will work with my model number. I’d hate to install it and blow something else up because it is the wrong diode. I took the back panel off of the fridge and can see where it has a diode similar to this. How can I find out if Part number 5303918287 is compatible with my model FRS26LF7DS7? Thanks in advance.
Answer Broke Fridge, The diode is not listed on your model number but will work for your unit and does sound like this would be the issue with the ice and the water dispenser. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, September 17, 2014
