Gibson Refrigerator Lever Parts

The Dispenser Lever is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire refrigerators. This lever is a critical component of the refrigerator's water and ice dispenser system, located on the unit's exterior. It is designed to engage the dispenser when pressed, allowing for the seamless release of ice or water. 

Causes of a malfunctioning Dispenser Lever can include physical damage from impact, normal wear, and tear from repeated use, or a failure in the spring mechanism that could prevent it from returning to its off position. Maintaining this part in good working order is essential for its convenience.

Symptoms of a bad Dispenser Lever include:

• The dispenser fails to activate when the lever is pressed.
• The lever sticks in the pressed position or doesn't spring back.
• Difficulty in pressing the lever or it feels loose.

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

Kit includes ice and water actuator arms.

This ice dispenser lever is the actuator you press with your glass to release ice from the freezer door. A worn or broken lever can keep the door dispenser from dispensing ice or make it hard to activate.

• Transfers your push at the dispenser pad to the ice dispenser switch
• Helps restore normal ice dispensing from the door chute
• Common symptoms: lever broken, loose, or stuck; no ice dispensed when pressed
• May cause intermittent dispensing if the actuator is worn or misaligned

• Unplug refrigerator before service; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove dispenser trim and control panel as needed to access the lever
• Note spring and pivot orientation; transfer any reusable hardware
• Test dispenser operation before reinstalling trim

This humidity control is the adjustable slider in the crisper drawer cover that opens and closes the vent to regulate moisture around fruits and vegetables. Replace a cracked or missing control to restore smooth adjustment and consistent crisper conditions.

• Mounts to the crisper cover and links to the vent/damper door
• Slides between settings to increase or reduce airflow for proper crisper humidity
• Typical symptoms: broken or missing lever, slider stuck or loose, vent doesn't move as you adjust, excess condensation or wilting produce

• Disconnect power; remove food, crisper pan, and cover/glass as needed—handle glass carefully
• Release the old control from its slot/retainer and note the vent linkage orientation
• Seat the new control and engage the linkage; confirm full travel and proper vent action
• Reassemble the cover and drawer, then restore power

This solenoid actuator is the electromechanical device that moves a latch or linkage when energized, restoring the appliance's intended mechanical action. It provides a direct replacement to re-enable reliable actuation. What it does:

• Converts electrical signal into a mechanical push or pull to operate a latch, door, dispenser or linkage
• Commonly used where a timed or motor-driven movement is needed during a cycle
• Symptoms this part can cause: appliance fails to actuate a door, latch, dispenser or similar mechanism when called for
• Replacing a worn or failed actuator restores proper mechanical response to control signals

• One solenoid actuator

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning work to avoid shock or unintended actuation
• Remove any panels or trim as needed to access the actuator; note wire and mounting locations for reassembly
• Reconnect wiring and test the function on a short cycle after installation
