Don August 06, 2025 for Model Number Ed5ftgxkq01 Replace the water inlet valve and the water flows out of the door dispenser. When you press the water dispenser you here the valve working
1 Answer Don, Thank you for your question. If the valve is getting 120 vac to it but the water is not flowing through the door then disconnect the tubing at the bottom of the freezer door and see if water flows when you push the dispenser lever. If it does then this means that the fill tube through the door is frozen and will need to be thawed. Read More...
Richard Thompson September 24, 2023 for Model Number 106.56576400 My Kenmore side by side water dispenser will not unlock. It started with having to hold the lock button longer and it would unlock. Now it will not unlock at all and no water comes out. The ice maker works fine.
1 Answer Richard, This issue will be with the dispenser touchpad which unfortunately has been discontinued by the manufacturer with no suitable replacement available. Read More...

John T February 19, 2022 for Model Number ED25DQXDN04 It appears the water line from the connection under the freezer door to the dispenser tube is clogged. Do you have any suggestions to clear the line or replace it? Thanks!
1 Answer It would most likely be frozen rather than clogged. It would be advised to defrost the unit for 24hrs and then verify that the freezer is holding the correct temperature. Read More...
Howard August 16, 2021 for Model Number ED5KVEXVQ00 Not able to get neither ice or water from the door unit. Its still making ice. I have replaced both micro switches. It is not in lock out mode. any suggestions?
1 Answer Howard, it would be recommended that the wires at the door hinge are inspected for any broken wires. If there is not a broken wire, the failure would likely be in the switch board WP2180236. Read More...

Nicholas May 18, 2021 for Model Number ED5GHEXNQ00 My water dispenser stopped working so I am replacing the microswitch. While I am in there mucking about should I also replace the ice dispenser microswitch? I'd hate to close everything up then have the ice dispenser switch fail and have to start the process all over again.
1 Answer Nicholas, it would mostly be a personal preference on replacing the ice dispenser microswitch WP2162361 if it is operating properly. Depending on the frequency of ice being dispensed, the switch could potentially have enough wear to warrant replacing it before it has failed. Read More...

Joe Drabik January 06, 2021 for Model Number KSCK25FVSS03 When depressing the ice dispenser the circuit break flips. Where might this short be coming from? could it be the board or the microswitch?
1 Answer Joe D, Based on the description provided of the issue it could be a short with any component in that circuit, that being said I would check the dispenser solenoid and the dispenser motor assembly first with a multimeter and then if they are ok move on to the switch, board and even the wiring.

Jay May 20, 2020 for Model Number ED2SHAXMT10 This is my third question. I think it is the Water Switch, AP6005886(FSP2162361)?! My neighbor is an electrician, we will use OHM meter on it soon. Jay W. Gillen
1 Answer Hello Jay, on your model the dispenser switches WP2162361 power the water valve and ice dispenser motor directly with 120v. You may want to replace them both at this point. Its likely the water switch is just worn or has gotten moisture inside the switch body. Read More...
