Water and Ice Supply

For some reason the power to the Ice and Water dispenser is not working normally, sometimes the lite and the dispensers will work fine, 20 minutes later I don’t have power to the dispenser, of course without the power I can not activate those functions even though the ice maker keeps making ice, any sugestions? A faulty switch?
Thanks

Hi.

The problem could be the freezer door switch contacts.

The door switch 241547901

Here are the breakdown diagrams and http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?model_id=5153498

Good luck. Post the results.

If I understood correct, the door switch part #241547901 controls the power going into the water and ice dispenser? The lite inside the freezer doesn’t turn off when I open the freezer door and yet sometimes I don’t have power in the water and ice dispenser and the lite inside the freezer is on; do you know is there is another switch that controls the dispenser? Thanks

Hi.

The door switch is what they call "double through". It has two groups of contacts: one controls the light another one the dispenser.
Replace the switch. That should help.

Thank you.

Ok, I will try that option. Thank you.

You are welcome.

Simon.
