Tom March 01, 2012 for Model Number ARB2257CSR I have a water drip from the water dispenser after filling a glass also when the ice maker circulates to fill with water a large amount of water drips from the water dispenser. I change the Primary Water Valve and still dripping. Is there something else i should look at?
1 Answer Hello Tom. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the water valve 12002193 is bad and will need to be replaced. The primary would not fix the problem on the unit. Hope this helps. Read More...
David October 03, 2011 for Model Number Kenmore M#59652672200 My icemaker is not getting water. Is the water valve the likely part to replace? If so, which part number? I am looking at AP4013716 or AP4009555. Are both of these parts in my Frig?

Sally September 09, 2011 for Model Number ARS8265BS There was water leaking out from the bottom of my refrig. I have discovered that it is leaking from below where the water hose is attached. This looks like the correct part to replace. Is it? And is it easy to replace?
1 Answer Sally, If your leak is from the valve, where the water supply line from the wall attaches then you need the primary fill valve WP12544002 . Its a relatively easy repair, just remember to shut the water off at the wall before you start. Basic household hand tools are about all you'll need. Basically, move the fridge out away from the wall, disconnect the water supply line from the fill valve(use a container or towel to collect the residual water in the line, unplug the power cord and remove the lower rear access panel on the back of the fridge. Remove the mounting screws holding the valve to the refrigerator frame, Disconnect and install the wires and tubes, one at a time, so you don't loose track, and reverse the procedure and test the operation. Good Luck and Thanks Read More...
Paulette August 07, 2011 for Model Number ars826sbw Why is my ice maker not filling with water and if it does we get just a shell of an icecube
1 Answer Paulette, You're on the right track, if the water valve to the ice maker is clogged with plumbing debris, it will create the situation you describe. You may also want to replace the water filter EDR4RXD1 if you haven't recently. Good Luck and Thanks. Read More...
Wayne S. April 06, 2011 for Model Number ARS 8265 BS Further to my above question about my ice maker over flowing, how would you know if the ice maker is bad and calling for too much water. is there a part number for the ice maker?
1 Answer Hello Wayne. You can check the gear on the icemaker and see if it is broke. Also you can test and see if the valve is still releasing water, after the voltage to the valve is off. You will need to perform this test during harvest mode. If the valve still releases water after the voltage is off, the valve is bad. Hope this helps. Read More...
Wayne S. April 05, 2011 for Model Number ARS 8265 BS Is this the valve that controls the water to the ice maker. The water supply to the ice maker didn't stop flowing when the ice tray was full and it flooded my fridge and floor.
1 Answer Hello Wayne. You will need to check and see if the icemaker is bad, and is calling for water. If it is good, then this is the valve 12002193 for the icemaker. Hope this helps. Read More...
