I have GE LSS25XSW side by side refrigerator which is 3 years old. Ice machine makes ice but the dispenser will not dispense ice. cleaned the ice maker tray few times but does not help. The water dispenser works fine. Any comment is appreciated.

    Hi: Thanks for your comments. Ice cubes are producing fine, and water comes through the door just fine. But no ice dispenses from the ice dispenser. It seems the motor has a hard time turning. Do you still think it is the bad Ice Solenoid.
    Thanks

    The " ice solenoid " is refering to the door flap solenoid which opens the door flap to let ice drop thru the door .

    Hi:
    Is the "ice solenoid" located in the freezer door panel or in the back side of the refrigerator where the ice is produced? Can it be changed from outside by removing the exterior cover of the dispenser (where the water/ dispenses) or should the inner cover of the freezer door be removed. Thanks

The ice solenoid located behind the control for the water and ice has gone bad. Inexpensive to replace. Thanks.

    yes I do. The only other thing would be the auger motor freezing up but 1 way to check the solenoid is to remove the ice bucket from freezer. With the door open depress the door switch and press for ice at the same time and see if the ice chute door is opening for you and closing. If it is go for the auger motor but do this test first.

GE Side By Side Ice Machine & Water dispenser not getting water

you may have a pin hole in your water line to your dispenser or you could be leaking at the water valve itself on the water dispenser side. you'll have to pull the refrigerator out from the wall and look where the main water line goes into the back of the refrigerator. you will probably have to take the back off to see. be sure you put the back of the refrigerator back when you are through.
