Don H. May 09, 2011 for Model Number sxd26vw The valve on the back wall is working when I disconnected the tube on the inside of it and pressed water it shoots water. Whats the function of the secondary valve further inside? Is this the reason I get no water at filler? I also disconnected tube at bottom of door so I know its not plugged above that.
1 Answer Hello Don. If the secondary valve is bad, the unit will not dispense water. It sounds like the secondary valve is the problem. You can test and see if there is power going to it when the dispenser is pressed. If so, but no water comes out, you will need to replace the secondary valve WP12544101. You can test this with a multi-meter MA-DM1. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
1 Answer You simply remove the old one from the back of your refrigerator and install the new one the same way the old one was hooked up. It has screws holding it to the refrigerator, and the water lines screw off of the valve. The wire connectors pull off of the valve. Read More...
