This is a side by side with external water and ice. My wife changed the filter and since then the water dispenser stopped working even after putting the old one back in. I do have working water to the unit and when you press the lever you hear the motor. Please help.
Hello.
First take the filter out and try to defrost the inside of the filter housing, using the blow dryer. Don’t melt any plastic parts.
See if that helps. If not - most likely you need to replace the fitter base.
