Diego C Simsbury , CT December 24, 2021 Condensation in the ice dispenser caused by an oxidized solenoid valve rusted flapper spring and a flapper that was not closing properly I bought a new solenoid valve, flapper and spring (for the cost, the $11 flapper and $4 for the spring made it worth). Also, the water button had broken, as my 2 year old is learning to use the fridge :) :(, I ordered a new control panel and replaced the older one. 1. Removed the plastic cover around the control panel by using a putty scraper and a rounded knife 2. Removed the control panel (Push slightly down, take flap up and pull down from the top) 3. Disengage switches in panel 4. Remove the 4 screws 5. Remove the 3 screws for the solenoid valve and place the new one. Tip, Before placing the new one, put the two screws at the botton in the valve back cover, a lot easier to install this way 6. Remove flapper, change spring, place new flapper. 7. Work all back and put back in place. Like New! Read More... 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers
