Wont dispense water - GE GSL25JFXLB (250 cu ft) Side by Side Refrigerator

Hello;

My name is peter. I am a retired field service refrigeration technician.

There are only two possible causes.


1.) Either you have a bad water filter, which happens. remove the water filter and test your water dispenser.


2.) Your water supply pressure is bad. Sometimes the water shut off valve to your unit gets plugged up. You need 60 PSI water pressure to operate the solenoid valves to your Ice maker and water dispenser.

If your water dispenser will not shut off then it is either the dispenser microswitch or the water inlet valve in the back of the refrigerator. Here is link that might help http://apcoappliancerepair.wordpress.com/?s=water+dispenser . Would need a model and serial number to assist you more. Good Luck From Apco Appliance and Air .

Some of these ge frig have a problem with water freezing inside the door and so the water dispenser wont work. only way to be sure it to turn off your frig for about a week and leave the doors open. plug in then try the water dispenser. if this is the problem call g.e. you will need a special kit to solve this problem. it dispenser still doesn't work replace water valve!!!

possible frozen water supply tube behind fountain assembly, or broken tube at valve, bad valve, filter,filter mount assembly

You push the water dispenser lever in and it applies power to an electric valve (solenoid) which opens and allows the water to flow.
So, there are two components to look at: 1. the electrical switch attached to the lever; 2. the solenoid valve.
Secondary things to check: Is the water connected? Is the shutoff valve on the wall open? Is the tubing clogged with mineral deposits? Are any wires for the water dispenser switch or solenoid disconnected, chewed through by that dead (electrocuted) mouse under the refrigerator?

Hope this helps...
Good Luck!

water wont dispenser from door

Remove the bin and you probably have ice caught in the auger .

Check all your hoses and make sure that they are not blocked and everything can run freely through your sstem

Need to check and see if the water filter is stop up ,if you don't have a filter it I would start with water value at the bottom .

Yes, if the filter gets clogged up to a point that it won't allow water to flow, it won't dispense. Replace the filter. Remember that the all the junk that the filter captures is better left in the filter than in your bloodstream... Hope that helps !
