It's possible it was installed improperly.... try removing it and re-installing. May have a filter that is clogged... only way to determine this is to replace it with another new one.
if water is leaking from where water line is try cutting the very end off water line and reinstall water line... if it is leaking any where else replace housing
Colin,
The water line is fine (what about water inside that line). Please check the source of the water line, I am sure when the previous used it they might have shut the water valve somewhere. Check your basement for that small valve etc.
Hello dharitos1. I understand you are concerned about the temperature of the water in your refrigerator. Since the line runs through the door, the water will be slightly chilled, but will not be cold. You may need to run the water through a couple of cycles to get the chilled water. This is normal. I hope this information is helpful. Sincerely, Melanie, Whirlpool Social media group.
The ice maker is probably not getting water. Have you heard the water valve click on and off to allow water to flow to the ice maker? If you get chilled water from the fridge, the ice maker's water valve will probably sound very similar to when you dispense chilled water. Try the water to listen for it. Then, listen for it over the course of an hour or so to determine if the ice maker is doing the same thing. If you hear it - then there may be a blockage in the line or filter.
If you don't have provisions to get chilled water from your fridge (ice only) or notice that you can't get water from your fridge any more: Make sure the water supply is on and.. that supply line isn't kinked or got crushed when the fridge was pushed back into position. This is a pretty common occurrence. If you don't hear any water valve clicking, the valve itself may have failed or there may be a problem with the electrical circuit. Hopefully, you won't have to got beyond this, but if so - let us know.
theres only so much water that resevoir inside can hold once it empties it must sit to cool or chill. once used then ur just gettin straight water from ur water line from the house...
The coil of plastic tubing behind the crisper is your chilled water reservoir for the water dispenser. They use a coil instead of a tank because it chills the water more quickly and ensures good turnover of the water with less chance of stagnation.
That coil is the line to the water dispenser, and its purpose is to chill the water before dispensing it. The coil of tubing is better than a tank because it chills quickly, takes less space and doesn't hold stagnant water. It shouldn't have any effect on the icemaker.
