Kenneth Boyd for Model Number Whirpool Gold Ref. Model #GD5SHAXNT00

Ice maker led not working properly. I recently purchase from your company the Led sender receiver, and installed. Led still intermittent. When I push freezer door switch just a little, by hand in and out it will come on some times. Does the door switch control the Led? Need help please. I don't think my led replacement helped fix the problem. Does the freezer door switch have any control over the water inlet valve? Maybe contacts in switch are bad?? Thank You for your help!!

Answer

Kenneth,

The light switch does play a role in the emitter board operation. If the light is not coming on in the unit then the emitter board light would generally not come on. Based on the information with the board lighting up after pushing the switch then the switch would be bad. The water valve and switch do not intertwine except for the dispenser operation.
