I wanted to verify my thought. When dispensing water out of the refrigerator you hear the motor(?) run and the water squirts out but then the motor(?) grumbles and stops but the water continues to flow out at a slower pace. I'm thinking it's the solenoid? The water is still dispensing just at a much slower rate/trickle.

Hello John, thank you for your inquiry. First try this: Make sure the cradle on the dispenser has been held down for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the reservoir to fill completely. Next, you could have a clogged Water Filter PS8746144. his can result in no water or slow running water from the dispenser. Lastly, you can test or change out the Dispenser Door Solenoid PS1483583. We have a video of how to replace it on our site. We look forward to hearing from you.
Refrigerator makes ice but does not dispense water. What part do I need.
For model number GSHS5KGXGCSS
Hello Bob, thank you for writing. The Water Valve is PS16226572. If you are sure that the water line is not frozen you could check to see if you are getting voltage to the water inlet valve. If you have voltage to the valve and the line is not frozen I would replace the water inlet valve. We have a video for you to access. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you.
The water dispenser works but no water is flowing to the ice maker. This lack of water flow to the ice maker coincided a few months ago with the ice maker reservoir overloading with ice. I tried turning the ice maker off and on, with no success. Suggestions?
For model number GSHS5KGXGCSS
Hi Greg, thank you for contacting us. Based on our understanding, we would suggest checking the water inlet valve, part number PS16226572. It supplies water to the ice maker and the water dispenser in your refrigerator. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this sorts out your problem!
Ice maker not making ice and ice maker does not fill with water. Water dispenser works fine. I replaced water inlet valve (WR57X33326) and it did not solve the problem. Still no flow of water to ice maker though water dispenser continues to work. What to do next?
For model number GSHS5KGXGCSS
Hello Greg, thank you for reaching out. As you have already replaced the water inlet valve and the issue did not get resolve, we would recommend checking the ice maker assembly, part number PS1993870, to solve the problem. We hope this helps!

The very first symptom here is important! The door water dispenser is not working but the ice macine is working. You may only have a frozen water tube in the door so do the following before diagnosing that your solenoid valve is bad: 1) the tube usually runs under the front of the refrigerator and usually has a quick disconnect. Undo t
... Read morehe connection and press the dispenser. If water comes out of the tube you have a frozen or blocked tube in the door. 2) Immediately adjust the temperature in the freezer and warm the freezer compartment as much as you can without destroying the freezer contents. Wait 24 hours. This will usually unfreeze the line. Do not waste your time with a hair dryer. NOW, if this doesn't work and you are convinced you need to order and replace the solenoid, follow these steps. Assemble your tools first. I needed a good ratchet set and a screwdriver. A shop towel is helpful for spilled water. A light is handy. Pull out the refreigerator to gain access to the rear of the unit. Unplug the power and close the water valve (older homes, you may need to actually shut the house water supply). Remove the screws which hold the cover over the lower half of the refrigerator. On the left you will see the solenoid. It's always good to see that your new part matches the one you feel needs replaced. They may not match perfectly due to changing design but they should be very similar. One screw holds this part in place and access is very simple. Now simply unplug the electrical connections. In my case, one blue "blade" type connection (powering the water) and one red "blade" type connection powering the ice maker. They are not the same size and this coupled with the coloring means you will not accidently switch them. pull the tubes clear of the solenoid. This is simple and needs no explantion. Grab your new solenoid and reattach both the electrical and water lines (two, remember, ice maker and drink dispencer). Replace the single screw. Re-attach the rear, lower refrigerator cover and go to the front of the unit to check the water. You can listen carefully and hear the power engage from the new part bringing you water. Clean up, replace the refrigerator back to its place and look really tired when your wife sees that you worked "so hard"! You probably saved at least $50-$80 from a service call which can now be used to take the family to dinner after your "exhausting" 15 minute workout of removing about 10 screws and wheeling the unit in and out of place. Writing this article took longer! My 4 year old worked harder holding the flash light!
I used a digital camera and photographed the assembled unit and the metal blades before I started the repair. Then, I removed the top screw on the clear shield. Flip over ice tray and removed two Phillips screws on bottom. Exterior plastic white cover comes off next. The cover sides have hard push-in white plastic tabs. Push them in; pry
... Read moreup top cover with small flathead screwdriver. Slide white top cover up and you will now see the metal blades and assembly. Auger is held in place with a metal c-clip and washer on the end. Use flat head screwdriver to pry off c-clip. Then you will see a nylon round slotted nut. The threads are reverse, use pliers and loosen nut. It is not that tight but pliers are needed. Then it all is loose and ready for removal. I slid all the blades off at one time and kept them stacked together. Slide out auger and clear flat shield cover. Install new auger, clear shield, and metal blade stack. When you put it all back together take a look at the long metal J-hook on the bottom make sure it is in the slot before you make everything tight. Failing to do this will prevent cubed ice from dispensing. It is not that hard to do the repair it just takes some patience and paying attention to details.
After replacing the defrost heater, main board and thermistor I still had the same problem. Called a repair guy and he (with the help of GE on the phone) diagnosed that the temperature sensor was bad. So I ordered from partselect and installed it and it fixed the problem. Been good for a couple months (knocking on wood). To install I
