Ice and Water Dispenser Actuator Pad - light gray

The old valves water lines had threded connectors, I cut those off and pused the line into new valve put everything back together. Only additionalwasto clean ice from around icemaker where hose fills it with water. It'sben working fine for a week so far.

The ice/water dispenser was stuck in "on" position and would not stop discharging ice cubes. First I removed the dispenser grill and face plate (2 screws at bottom of plate under grill). Then, I unscrewed and removed the ice/water selector switch (2 screws). Then, I removed the ice/water dispenser assembly (1 screw over actuator pad and 1 screw over ice/water selector switch). Then I pulled and replaced the actuator switch (1 screw). Then I replaced the actuator pad (just slips over - not screws) and put everything back together. It was really very easy. You just need to get the correct size torx driver.

the entire assembly was removed using some small hex and torx wrenches. I am not a refrigeration expert and had no diagram but this was very intuitive to replace all the parts above. I figured I would replace all these other related parts while I was digging around in there.

One thing to watch out for is to label the wires going into the switches before you take the old one out. You do not want to wire them up wrong, so use a sharpie to label the colors before disassembly.

Also take the time to clean the parts in soap/bleach to clean all the years of filth that accumulate.

I replaced all the parts above and cleaned everything well in under 20 minutes. Saved a fortune thanks to partselect!

Remove the slide-in tray. Remove just the 2 bottom screws of the panel, and slide the panel up to release the top. While suporting the panel, unplug the cable that goes to the PC board in the panel. Remove 3 screws that hold the assembly with ice and water dispenser actuator pad and switch and pull down and out. ( make note how the water tupe is routed for re-assembly) While supporting the assembly disconnect the 2 cables to the assembly. Replace the switch and actuator pad and reassemble. ( make sure the water tube is in the correct position).

First I removed spill tray. It slipped right out. next I removed the front cover.it had 2 screws hidden by the spill tray. next were the 2 screws holding the selection slider.Under it is 3 more screws after removing them then the assembly will come lose from the refrigerator.Be careful you dont drop the ice door. unplug the assembly. Turn unit over and you will see the limit switch remove and replace it with 1 small phillips screw. remove and replace dispenser actuator pad.replace everything in reverse order.The ice door is the only thing a little tricky.still i replaced ours in about 10 mins.

Removed front dispenser trim panel by removing 2 torx screws under drip tray. Removed dispenser module by removing 3 torx screws. Unplug electrical connector on LHS of module. Removed the gray actuator pad & the limit switch by removing a small phillips head screw. Removed 2 spade connectors to switch & replaced with new switch. Reverse the steps above to re-assemble the dispenser module & trim panel to the door.
