If this unit has a built in water filter, you will need to bypass it (with a bypass plug or by removing the water filter and trying the unit without it). If the pressure remains the same, most likely it means there is low pressure going into the unit from the wall and plumbing. If by bypassing the filter the pressure increases, it is time to replace the filter. If this does not help, the water filter head/housing will need to be replaced.

I have a Maytag Model #PSD262LHEB refrigerator and the water comes out well and then it makes a purr noise and starts coming out very slow and thin. I've changed the filter as per the Manual and nothing. ...

1) Can you turn up the water pressure with a valve that might control the water connected to the fridge?
2) If there is a plastic water supply tube in back of the fridge you may want to disconnect it and see if there is ample water going through or try replacing it to see if it may be the problem.

LG serial#GR L247NIS is making slow ice

Have you checked the temp in the freezer section? Should be near zero F - at least below 10 F. You would also be noticing ice cream being soft.

Adjust amount of water to ice maker

there is a small setting on the icemaker module, but it only makes a VERY small difference. you would want to fix the water supply issue though. the icemaker fills a ceartain amount of time, not to a level, so if you increase the time, it is still filling so slow that it won't make a big difference.
3 possibillities for slow water flow
1. flow coming into the fridge is too low- plumbing issue, likely at the water valve under your sink.
2. Water filter needs to be changed every year
3. Bad solenoid valve in the fridge. it is where the water enters the fridge.

Water dispencer from inside fridge isnt dispencing water. makes noise like it wants to but wont. can my water line be frozen? my fridge is usualy pretty bare and the temp is on 6.

It is very common for the water dispensing tube to become frozen if there is a slow drip coming from the water fill solenoid in the back of the refrigerator.

Water come's out to slow? changed filter! was doing it before i changed filter!

James -

Check to make sure the valve for the water supply is on fully - and not between the ON and OFF positions. If that is ok, the water supply line may have become restricted when the fridge was pushed into position the last time it was rolled out (for cleaning, etc.). The line may have become kinked (usually a copper line problem) or partially crushed (copper or plastic) under one of the fridge's rollers.

You should close the water valve before moving the fridge for inspection. Unplug the fridge. Disconnect the water line at the back of the fridge. Inspect the length of line for evidence of a crush or kink. Replace as needed. Test the flow of water into a larger container before reconnecting to fridge. If close to the fridge output, the valve and line to the fridge is suspect. Replace parts one at a time as needed until the problem is solved. If there is significantly more flow than when connected to the fridge, then the problem is somewhere in the fridge - but outside of the filter - there's little to change or go wrong for a "slow flow rate". It's usually an "all or nothing" deal inside the fridge.

Reassemble, turn water supply back on (check for leaks), plug into power, carefully roll fridge into position (watch the water line as long as possible to prevent crushing / kinking) and test.

Please rate this reply if helpful - good luck!

Whirlpool GR2FHTXVQ00 fridge. Water dispenser

The water inlet valve on the back of the unit where the water supply comes in can have a slow leak and will cause ice to buildup and block the fill tube. Disconnect the ice maker line from the valve and watch to see if it has a slow drip. It doesn’t take much to eventually block the fill tube.
The valve can leak because of sediment in the water preventing it from closing or low water pressure.

You can thaw out the fill tube and replace the inlet valves.

Why would the water start coming out very slow?

If you are referring to water coming out the fountain it could be a leak in the system somewhere allowing air into the lines that run the water, if you are referring to water coming out of the ice maker itself you need a new ice maker the lining is bad

Water comes from under drawers on fridge side, leaks onto floor

If leak continued then you must have a faulty cut off valve. Check and tighten valve. Also, check the hose that runs underneath the fridge for cuts or holes.
