GolfVenture Posted December 26, 2014 Share #1 Posted December 26, 2014 The outside controller for the water and ice has a small round door that opens so the ice can slide down from the ice maker through the round door into the glass. For no reason both the water and ice stopped dispensing and this small round door keeps opening and then after the small round door opens fully the spring then shuts the door quickly. This cycle occurs every about every 7 seconds give or take a second. Several lights on the controller door keeps flashing. The water dispenser was flowing water very fast to the filter today so it is not pluged. I have pretty much dismantled the the controller door, looking at the small mother board and the motor unit to the ice dispenser. This where I could use some suggestions please.

GolfVenture Posted December 26, 2014 Author Share #3 Posted December 26, 2014 My son and I kept searching and then found a forum on it. Identified the board and the 2 caps with the correct item number. Will go to Radio Shack tomorrow as recommended. Supposed to be a $5.00 fix.

pbjman Posted December 26, 2014 Share #5 Posted December 26, 2014 Whenever I need to fix anything I look for a forum or visit "YouTube University" But I bet those refrigerator forum guys aren't as cool as us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted December 26, 2014 Share #6 Posted December 26, 2014 OH...you would be AMAZED. There are a ton of YouTube videos on all kinds of appliance repair. I've used them several times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
