Hi. We started experiencing a clicking sound coming from the filter area when dispensing water. after the clicking sound the flow of water is very light. i wait about 30 minutes or so and the flow is back to normal but after about 5 seconds the clicking sound happens again and the flow returns to very light. i have done this several times. i then swapped out the filter with a brand new one and still have the same issue. (good flow for 5 seconds, then the clicking sounds, then low flow)
thoughts?
thank you!

Hi David. Sounds like it may be a bad inlet valve. Thank you for your question and good luck with your repair.
I have a follow up question on this:Hi. we started experiencing a clicking sound coming from the filter area when dispensing water. after the clicking sound the flow of water is very light. i wait about 30 minutes or so and the flow is back to normal but after about 5 seconds the clicking sound happens again and the flow returns to very light. i have done this several times. i then swapped out the filter with a brand new one and still have the same issue. (good flow for 5 seconds, then the clicking sounds, then low flow) thoughts? thank you! dave
the suggestion was to replace the inlet valve.
i did order this part but before i perform the replacement i have a question. i removed the new filter and put in the bypass plug. after i do this the water flows fine and there is no clicking sound. i don't believe this is a filter issue seeing that i just put a new one in. could the issue still be the valve perhaps having an issue in pushing the water through the filter and still need replacing?
thank you.

Hello David,
Thank you for your question. If you want to use the water filter for the water dispenser, you would still need to replace the valve since the bypass probably solved the issue because the water flow doesn't need to pass through the filter now. However in time its possible that the water flow might slow more down to cause issues again even with the plug installed. We hope this helps.

My fridges has a low hum and won’t keep fridge cold and freezer doesn’t freeze?

Freezer works. Refrigerator does not. Fan is freezer works. Tube to fridge is clear. Flapper valve in fridge is closed so no air is getting in to fridge. Resistance on flapper motor is 2.5 k.

Hello Lee and thank you for writing.
It certainly sounds like it could be a faulty compressor start device and capacitor PS8746522 and/or a faulty defrost thermostat PS11743535, you should check for signs of damage, and replace if necessary. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime if you require further assistance.
Pressed in the end of the filter cover, lowered it down part way. Twisted the old filter 1/4 turn and removed it. Set in the sink to drain. Inserted new filter and twisted it to lock. closed cover. Done. Total time @ 1 Minute.
Interior surface of ice tray felt rough & flaky (coating deteriorated) so cubes would not release. Unplug appliance. Remove timer cover by hand pressure @ edge. Remove single attachment screw & bracket at lower front of icemaker. Disconnect wiring harness from socket @ rear of compartment. Tricky part was determin
... Read moreing what type of connection held the other two attachment points along the long edge of the icemaker. I did not have repair manual or useful drawing but looked @ PartsDirect pic of side brackets & used a small mirror to confirm that mine were also some sort of "snap in" attachment. Remove icemaker unit by pushing upward and outward on the unit. I takes a good bit of pressure and will pop loose, but be careful not to break attachment bracket from freezer wall. Scavenge shut off bar and wiring harness from old icemaker once you have it out & attach to new one before installing it back in freezer. Again, you might find a mirror useful to align those pesky snap-in brackets with the new unit. Since you probably kept your freezer running while waiting for the part, the plastic snap-ins will be cold and brittle. I warmed them up first by applying a dampened cloth heated in the microwave to make them a little more pliable. A good push of the new unit towards the snap-ins along with some upward force will get it stable. Reattach the metal screw in bracket & connect the wiring harness to rear plug... and don't forget to plug the whole thing back in. It will take awhile for the first batch of cubes dump as the timer may need to cycle completely around to get to the fill cycle... be patient. Dump the first couple of batches of cubes just to make sure you're free of any residue.
unplugged refrigerator and shut off water, removed one screw and loosened two more, after removing one side of the ice bucket rail, unplugged electrical from old ice maker. Then I removed the bail and out on new one, reinstalled ice maker in reverse order from taking it out.
