Larry January 06, 2013 for Model Number AFD2535FES I have the Amana french door refrigerator with inside water spout. The water flow has been decreasing over the last 6 months or so. I originally assumed it was because I need a new filter but after the filter replacement it did not get any better. I have disconnected the water source and checked hosing the best I can but have not found any problems. The was flow is fast for about a 1/2 a second then is very slow. It take about 35 seconds to fill a 16oz bottle. I have read the most likely cause is the water head or filter installation, is this true? I have double and triple check to make sure the filter was twisted all the way on. It also seems that once I release the water button water continues to flow into the filter for 1/2 a second. If the filter is removed and water dumped out the flow is good until all the air is out of the line then it slows again. Any help you can give would be great. Thanks,
1 Answer Hello Larry, If you have your bypass plug you can install it and check to see how the water flow is. If the water flow is good with bypass in then it is the filter that would be causing problem. If the flow is still bad then you would need a new filter head assembly. This issue does sound like the filter head assembly WP67004106 causing the issue. Read More...
Ernie C November 18, 2012 for Model Number Kitchenaid French Door Bottom Freezer KBFA25ERSS My inside door water dispenser dispenses water with normal flow for a second or two, then pulsates, and then dispenses slowly to a trickle. I placed the bypass cap and it works fine. I replaced the water filter with a new one and I have the same issue. The ice tray cubes dispenser is working fine. Any ideas for troubleshooting this problem to isolate the failed part. v/r Ernie Camacho
1 Answer Hello Ernie, You may want to check to make sure that your water filter is being twisted all the way in. If the filter is not completely in place it will cause the pulsating. Since you put the bypass in and it worked fine this would be the most likely cause. Read More...
Carrie S. November 12, 2012 for Model Number Whirlpool Imperial Series Ultra Ease Water filtration system The water dispenser on the door seems to have a slow drip. I'm not sure if this is because there is a worn out part or if it is clogged. The ice maker seems to get water ok. Can you help me? Thanks!!!!! Carrie
1 Answer Hello Carrie! Have you changed the water filter recently? If so, air can be trapped in the water line which can cause a slow drip. You can purge the wate rline by dispensing water for at least a minute continuously. If the problem still occurs you more than likely have a failing water valve. We will need your model number to verify the correct valve replacement part number. Thanks! Read More...
Griff November 04, 2012 for Model Number TS25AF When water would flow into the cube tray it would sometimes continue to flow slowly after it filled it which flooded the ice bin or just freezes up the line. Which parts would I need to fix this? Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Griff, This sounds like the water inlet valve but it could also be attributed to low water pressure or sticking contacts in the ice maker motor module. Read More...
Brad October 08, 2012 for Model Number Maytag PSD267LHES Refigerator Trying to install a new water filter head but I cannot feed the tube with the metal fitting, which I believe is a compression fitting, through the hole in the foam insulation in the back of the fridge. Do I cut the tube from the fitting, feed the tube through, and then do the reverse process for the new fitting and reattach the tube into the fitting, or do I have to remove the foam piece which would mean removing the entire back panel of the fridge?
1 Answer Hello Brad. 1. Remove filter cover opening cover and pulling rear left side of cover to the left to release cover from holding pin. 2. Filter head can be released from holding bracket by opening tabs on left side filter head and pulling downward and to your left to release filter head. 3. Tubing needs to be disconnected from water valves in the machine compartment. 4. After tubing is loose from water valves pull the filter head and tubing out the front of unit. 5. Reverse procedure to reassemble. Read More...

Chris July 11, 2012 for Model Number afd2535deb I have a french door amana with water inside door. when you use the water you will get a a fast burst of water then you can here the pump kick on and low water pressure. The ice maker works fine but no water pressure for drinking water. when you put the bypass plug in with filter removed we get high water pressure constent no low water. I replaced the filter to see if it was clogged and did not fix my problem. I was checking to see if it was the dual valve assembly or head water filter kit. tks
1 Answer Hello Chris. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the water filter head WP67004106 is bad and will need to be replaced. If you installed a new filter and the problem continued, you will need to replace the filter head. Read More...
Bill July 08, 2012 for Model Number mfd2561hew It appears that I need a water head AP4080076. Does water from this unit and filter pass back to the ice maker? The water flow from the old AP080076 not only has a slow flow, but squirts water when you remove the filter. Thanks.
1 Answer Hello Bill. Yes, both the water in the door and the icemaker is filtered on this model. Read More...
