Answer

Morris, The water tube coil WP2256126 is the water reservoir(basically). It is a replaceable part, and you may want to consider it. Try this first, remove the water filter for a few days to a week, use the dispenser a few times a day, then see if the odor subsides in time. In some cases, water with a low chlorine content after it is filtered will allow deposits to develop and cause an odor in the water. Allowing the chlorinated water to flow through the dispenser tubing will usually remove the deposits and the odor and taste will subside.
