External water dispenser on Whirlpool Conquest model GS6SHAXKS01

The water dispenser lever on the Ultraease Plus water & ice dispenser on my Whirlpool refrigerator does not shut off when used. You have to pull the lever back out to make the water stop. Also, the water flow seems greatly reduced from what it used to be in this refrigerator. Is there some kind of valvel in there that needs to be replaced? If so, can you tell me how to get the external fascia off so that I can get in there? I noticed the response on this forum to the same question re: the GS6NBEXR said to put a flat end screw drive in the slots on the underside and pry it out. But my model doesn't have any such slots, and when I tried to just pry it up there was no give and I was afraid I was going to break it. Thanks for any help you can provide

Try this first. In the inlet side( where the little water line comes in) there is a small screen where the water is hooked up. Shut off the water and unhook the water line. there should be a small screen to keep out particles from entering your ice make/ water dispenser. See if that screen is plugged. If so clean the screen. you can put it in vinager over night if you want. It will help clean it.

Ice machine makes ice but doesn't dispense when the lever is pres

I would check for an electric "flap" that opens & closes when ice lever is depressed. My GE has one and it has been fouled before causing the ice to be stuck inside the door. Hope this helps!

GS6SHEXMLoo side by side ice dispenser not working

On advice from the tech I removed acess door. It was covered by frozen moisture.
I removed the motor it was full of water. I verified 120 volts at plug to motor from control
by depressing the door switch and ice dispenser lever at same time. The motor ohms out
but because of amount of water removed from it I am going to replace it and see what happens.

Ice and water dispenser

Has someone pressed the lock button on the front of the fridge just above the dispenser, next to the crushed & not crushed ice button, if so there is also an unlock button next to it.
