Aala May 01, 2020 for Model Number ED5HHAXVQ01 In answer to my question on dripping water, you indicated that the most likely cause would be a water valve that is sticking open causing the water to not shut off properly. What is the part number for the water valve I should purchase for Whirlpool Model Number ED5HHAXVQ01? Thx.
Aala April 30, 2020 for Model Number ED5HHAXVQ01 The ice dispenser is working fine. However. the water dispenser to the right side at times leaks. Sometime after pushing the water dispenser lever and letting go, the water keeps coming out of the dispenser tube. By pressing the lever and releasing quickly, the water flow will stop. Can you let me know what needs to be fixed? Thx.
1 Answer AALA, For this issue, the most likely cause would be a water valve that is sticking open causing the water to not shut off properly. Read More...
Jack Elko January 18, 2020 for Model Number 106.57029601 Bought micro switch for leaking water cup dispenser. Bought ps11738948. Took apart watched video and my frig is not the same as video showe d. What should I do? Why dripping?
1 Answer Jack, The dispenser on the unit would not drip due to a switch that is faulty. This would most likely be caused by air in the water line from changing the filter or water valve that is seeping. You could correct this dripping issue with a check valve 8201815. This check valve will connect to the water line at the bottom of the freezer door. Read More...
Minh December 22, 2019 for Model Number Whirlpool Frenchdoor GZ25FSRXYY2 Hello- I have a Whirlpool Frenchdoor Fridge ( model # GZ25FSRXYY2 ). Every single time when I open the door ( left side ) and the ice maker start running and coming out all over floor. Please help. What parts should I buy. ??
1 Answer Minh, You will want to check the wiring harness at the top of the left door hinge. A loose or damaged connection would be the most likely cause of this issue. Read More...
Michael April 23, 2019 for Model Number GD25DFXFW02 How do I access the front dispenser switch with the stainless panel brackets butted up to the bottom of the cover?
1 Answer Hello Michael, You will need to remove the stainless cover to access the dispenser controls. There are normally several screws across the top and down the side to remove the stainless panels. Read More...
Aaron January 20, 2019 for Model Number KSSC42QKS01 My water dispenser fails in the open position and must move back and forth to get water to stop flowing. Assume it is a bad dispenser switch as indicated by your page. However, the video to get the front panel off does not apply to my unit. It is a Stainless Kitchen Aide. I have put putty knife all around the dispenser panel and see no way to release it. Only other way I see in is to remove all of the perimeter screws but I am not going to do that unless I know it is the path forward and risk damaging the unit.
1 Answer Aaron, I sent you an email showing how to access the switch. Be careful not to break the switch holder when removing the switch. Read More...
Shari August 03, 2017 for Model Number Whirlpool ED5FHAXVS01 Just replaced my ice machine with your video. The problem occurred because we have to open the door so much to get ice. I checked the shaft and it engages, but nothing happens when I push the ice lever. No motor at all. Water dispenses. I don't want to create the problem again and want to be able to dispense ice. Could the switch be bad?
1 Answer Shari, It is not likely that the switch is faulty but the bracket that the switch will sit on would be the most likely cause for this. The part number you would need is W10728484. Read More...
Markb June 13, 2017 for Model Number 106.58943801 Strange things happening. Kenmore side by side. Water dispenser stopped working but ice dispenses. Changed filter. Still not working. Changed valve, still no water. Swapped micro switches. Water still out. However water works with filters old and new removed. Anyone ever encounter an issue like this?
1 Answer Mark, You will want to disconnect the tube at the bottom of the door and check to see if water comes from the water line coming from under the unit. if there is then the door water line is frozen and will need to be thawed. If there is not then the issue will most likely be a frozen water reservoir in the refrigerator compartment. Read More...
Andy March 13, 2017 for Model Number ed25dqxdw04 The water dispenser got stuck on even when the dispenser wasn't being used, had to turn off the water to the fridge at the filter. I can hear the microswitch clicking when pressing/depressing. Should I start with replacing that?
1 Answer Andy, This would be more likely the water valve that is faulty rather than the microswitch on the dispenser. The water valve is part number W10853654. Read More...
Bob S November 27, 2016 for Model Number ED5FHEXT000 Front panel doesn't dispense water or ice. When I depress the dispensers there is no sound. Could both micro switches be bad?
1 Answer Bob, In the middle of the control panel there is a button for the lock and a button for the unlock, Try to push the unlock button and see if this corrects the issue. If this does not correct the issue then check the wire harness at the bottom of the door to make sure that there is no damage to the wiring. For this type of issue it would be unlikely the switches but another source causing this issue and these are the 2 main causes. Read More...
