Frigidaire - FSC23F7DS - water dispenser not working but ice maker is

A few days ago the water feature stopped dispensing water. The ice maker is still making ice and dispensing it. I changed the filter and that didn't solve the problem. I emailed Frigidaire and they told me to call a service rep. I just make sure there isn't an easy solution to this problem before I call one.

    What could be the problem?

  • suzie71 Feb 18, 2008

    The light comes on when you press the paddle.  It does not appear to be broken.


    How can you tell if the water tank is frozen or not?

    Water dipenser doesn't work but ice maker does. I changed the water filter but that didn't fix it. When I took out the water filter and pressed the paddle water came out of where the filter shoud be. I put the filter back in and pressed the paddle, I heard a filling noise coming from the filter for a few seconds then nothing except a faint noise from the pump motor ( or whatever it"s called)

Water and ice dispenser does not work---the switch clicks when you press it but there is not response, also the ice maker just quit working

Three things could be wrong:
Solenoid switch where the water comes into the unit has gone, this control the flow of water into both the ice maker and the water dispenser.
If the switch is good and then you need to check your filters, sometimes inside the door top right. or on one of the corners on the bottom front.. You should be able to unscrew them with you hands.. make sure water is off behind unit or where ever your shut off is at.
One last thing.. check for kinks in the water line behind the unit if it was pulled out lately.

Side by side Frigidaire. The water dispenser

The water inlet valve on the back of unit opens when the ice maker needs water. If the valve doesn't seal good because of sediment or wear it will continue to drip and when the water reaches the ice maker supply tube it will freeze blocking the tube.. You can take the water line off the valve and watch to see if it drips.

Your water line could be frozen in the door. You can disconnect the line under the unit before it goes into the door at the bottom hinge. Push the dispenser button and see if it comes out there. If it does leave the door open till it thaws
disconnect the line to the water dispenser at the water inlet valve on the back where the water supply comes in and try the dispenser. if you hear the valve work but water doesn't come out, the valve is bad. If you don't hear the valve, the dispenser switch is bad.

10 yr old Frigidaire ice maker stopped making ice

try forcing the cycle by manually triggering the cycle a few times. Sometimes you can detach the trip arm or turn the tray by hand by disconnecting it from the gear. There may have been a switch bumped to turn it off or the switch somehow jammed. Maybe check for freeze-up. If there is water in it, it's going somewhere.
