Customer Questions and Answers for Module-Dispenser by Frigidaire

Manufacturer Part Number: 240563638

The Dispenser Module is an OEM part for Frigidaire refrigerators. It is a component located within the refrigerator door that is responsible for dispensing water and ice. The dispenser module houses the necessary valve assemblies, sensors, actuators and tubing required to deliver chilled water and ice on demand when the dispenser lever is engaged. It is designed to seamlessly integrate within the refrigerator door panel for convenient access.

Causes of a bad dispenser module can include buildup of mineral deposits or contaminants within the internal components that disrupt water flow or sensor functions over time. Mechanical wear and tear of plastic or rubber seals and valves is also common.

Symptoms of a bad dispenser module include:

  • Slow or intermittent water flow from the dispenser
  • Ice cubes dispensed one at a time instead of in batches
  • Water or ice dispensing that doesn't work at all
  • Leaks or water droplets below the dispenser area
  • Error codes related to the dispenser on the control board

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

Answer

Joe, You could have a faulty actuator switch 241689106 or selector switch 5304525097 here's some help " To Gain Access To Control Area: 1. Pull drip tray straight out.2. Remove three screws at bottom of front panel.3. Lift up on front panel. There are tabs on top of panel that slide into holes in door panel.4. Swing panel out to side, being careful not to pull wires out of disconnect plug or control board. 5. Carefully unplug wiring harness from control board on front cover. This gives access to power board. NOTE: On models with no selector on the front panel, once the front panel has been removed, you can gain access directly to the dispenser because there is no control board or power board.6. With the board detached, remove three screws from dispenser housing and pull housing forward.7. Remove water line from dispenser housing by pulling straight out.With the water line removed, the upper part of the dispenser is free of the freezer door panel.The main housing is built into the door panel and is not removable. The ice door, actuator switches, and return springs can be serviced with control module removed.The door closer is mounted on the side of the housing and is connected to the door arm with a gear wheel to slow the closing of the door and allow enough time for the ice to clear the chute.The door takes approximately 20 seconds to close after the glass is removed from the actuator.Both the water and ice actuators are tensioned by a stainless steel, two bladed spring which is mounted behind the actuator switches. The spring is held in place by two screws.The actuators are held in place by stainless steel clamps at each end of the actuator and the two bladed spring in the middle. The actuators can be detached by removing four screws and lifting the paddle/ice chute out of the housing.On models that dispense only water and ice cubes, the dispenser comes apart the same way as on models with a control board. The difference is, there is no light in the housing and the wiring to the actuator switches is connected directly to the plug in the door wiring harness." Thanks and Good Luck
