CustomerJames from PA PA
Water dispenser in the door did not work
Shut off power and water. Removed cardboard cover with nut driver. Removed old solenoids with ajustable wrench and nut driver. Water inlet fitting could not be tightened because fitting did not allow for lenght of copper tubing beyond ferrel (maybe that's not what it's called). Cut 1/8 inch off tubing and then everything then went together easily. Tested and eveything was good on first try. Replaced cardboard cover with the nut driver.

Replaced the inlet water valves to the ice maker and dispenser.
Turn off water supply. Take old one off. Compare the new part with the old. All looked about the same. Be very sure the water supply line is in the proper receptor or water will flow from the ice maker inside the freezer. Reattach all lines and circuit quick connects. Reattach valve housing to refridgerator rear frame. Place ice maker switch arm to the off position. Turn on water supply. Watch closly the areas that have compression fittings. Leaks will appear quickly if water lines are installed poorly. If no leaks detected then try water dispenser and turn the ice maker back on. I only had trouble with the compression fittings. However I always do. It took several trys to stops the micro leaks at the connections.

The line froze up to icemaker thought it was the icemaker but it was still going through the phasese of making ice. My son checked it out and decide it was the valve.
He pulled refrigerator out took the back protector off at the bottom took the old valve out and the new one in.

No water from dispenser and no ice cubes
Received the parts the next day after ordering. Installed water valve and ice maker replacement within minutes and had water flowing immediately and the ice cubes followed in hours after freezing. Thank you so much for allowing us to keep our KitchenAid refrigerator hopefully for a few more years.

CustomerVirgil from Bull Valley IL
Water line to icemaker kept freezing with increased frequency. Suspecetd inlet valve was leaking.
Turned off water supply and refrigerator power. Valve is on top of refrigerator, so easily accessible. Loosened screw holding copper water inlet line, unscrewed brass nut holding line to old valve, loosened plastic nuts to remove two outlet lines from valve (cold water and icemaker) . Removed old valve and essentially repeated above steps in reverse order with new valve. No hitch. Piece of cake. Back in business in about 15 minutes. System works fine so far, but will need to wait another week or so to be sure original problem was indeed solved by replacing dual inlet valve.

Customerjoseph from ONALASKA WI
Water dispenser quit working and then the ice despenser quit
First I shut off the water supply then I removed the 2 screws on the bracket that holds the element. Then disconnected the copper water tube and the two water hoses. Then replaced the element with the new one. Praying this was this problem. Turned on the water and checked for leaks. No leaks! Checked the water dispenser and it worked,then the ice dispenser and it worked also. Very easy repair and we saved a lot of money doing it my self. Also by buy the part through part select we saved $30.00.

CustomerGeorge from Menlo Park CA
No water flow to the ice maker
1. Determine that ice maker still worked by manually filling it with water
2. Made sure the tube that delivers water to the ice maker was not plugged with ice
3. Made sure that the water inlet valve filter was clean
4. Made sure that the icemaker was still trying to turn on the water delivery valve when the ice maker needed water
5. Did a web search for the replacement valve - found it at PartSelect and ordered it.
6. Part came quickly and took only 30 minutes to install and it fixed the problem.

No water dispensing
My water dispenser stopped working after using for sometime with a buzzing noise before water would dispense. After looking at Partselect .com parts diagram I found the water inlet valve was two valve assembly. One part of the valve is for the ice maker that worked fine.What I was hearing was the dispenser valve side solnoid trying to operate. After vacuum cleaning the coils and fan area and turning off the water to Frig. I replaced the valve, turned on the water,checked for leaks, It worked fine.. the part was delivered almost over night. Thank You PARSELECT.COM.....Don
