We show you how to specifically run a water inlet valve test on this Kitchenaid refrigerator, which is also a Whirlpool refrigerator, since Whirlpool makes fridges for most of the major appliance manufacturers. So if your water dispenser is broken, you need to follow our tips here on your Kitchenaid fridge and get your fridge water dispenser working once more.
In this video we also show you how to perform a water inlet valve test, before you consider a water inlet valve replacement when your water dispenser is not working in your Kitchenaid refrigerator. this will help you confirm if this is the root cause of a water dispenser broken and not dispensing water.
Fridge water dispenser not working
If your water inlet valve has stopped working and now your fridge water dispenser is not working even after a filter change, then it's time for a new water inlet valve. A water inlet valve replacement is highly recommended, do not get cheap and try to rebuild the water inlet valve, they often fail soon after you repair the water inlet valve.

My GF just bought a new fridge. When we went to install water line (which she has never used for 20 years), no water comes out of the valve. Do plumbers/contractors ever install a secondary shut off maybe under the house?

@keolanosaka5138 3 года назад

Thank you Jeff! Your video was a money and time saver! Our water in the reservoir was frozen. Your video helped us fix it in minutes! Thanks you, again!

@sabemajeen Год назад

What an excellent video! I haven't tackled the project yet but I am now armed with the knowledge that I need. I loved your 5 point presentation describing the possible causes and I just replaced the filter about a month ago so I know that isn't it. I'm guessing the solenoid connection, but I will check the others. Thanks!

@beverlybooth3551 4 месяца назад

After watching this video I used the hair dryer for 3 minutes inside the fridge and the water worked!!! Yea!! Thanks so much as the water has stopped for than once and then came back on...now I know what to do it it happens again! Great video with 5 ideas for why water might not be flowing! Simple FIX!!!

@samuelleonor7603 3 года назад

It worked!! Even though the filter was just two months old, replacing it fixed the problem of no water coming through. The explanation was clear and I started instructions in the order given. The simplest one worked. Thank you for your service.

@jeffostroff 3 года назад

Glad it helped Samuel!

@justinhall3073 7 месяцев назад

I can't thank you enough! I tested my line just before the door and had no water, but had water through the filter just before the solenoid. Metering the solenoid showed 360 and 180ohms so I pulled the water line and sure enough had water directly out of it. The water line from the back to the front was getting pinched under the fridge! You only get handy, but trying to be and finding mentors along the way. Thank you!

@legacychristianlearningcen386 3 года назад

This man is legit. This video helped me diagnose and fix the water dispenser on my side by side Frigidaire. It was the water valve. Thank you!!

@jeffostroff 3 года назад

Awesome, glad to help solve your water dispenser problem

@robertamavendooglefraggler9463 2 года назад

Although our Kitchenaid Architect II refrigerator is different than the one in your video, your suggestion on how to repair a frozen water dispenser worked wonderfully well! I removed both crisper drawers, then ran my hair dryer over the water tubing (ours was built with an enormous amount of tubing) for a few minutes. I heard the water dispenser click and, sure enough, water came out! I can't thank you enough!

@purrjoy8473 Год назад

Could you see ice ? I can't . But I'm going to give it a try I also have a lot of tubing and it's small tubing .

@kristinfields3598 Год назад

This just helped me fix my frig. I really appreciate your walking through this! My water line was frozen. Thank you !

@freema22 17 дней назад

You saved me a service call! My reservoir was frozen after my teenager lowered the temp in the fridge. Five minutes with a heat gun and all was right with the world. Thank you!!!

@jeffostroff 17 дней назад

I'm glad I could help you out with that fridge issue!

@dixiegibbons6739 Год назад

Jeff, you’re amazing!!! Thank you!! Had no idea the water reservoir (and tubing) was behind the crisper! I was ready to pay a service call, thinking it was something serious!! Thank YOU!!!

@tmbeanie 3 месяца назад

I just want to say THANK YOU for helping me fix the problem. We thought it was the Water inlet valve, but yeah still no water after changing it out. We did not however know about the jug thing in the back of the fridge..... Well, that was it. Took my hair dryer to it for less than 3 minutes and bam we had water. Thanks so much for posting this video you're a real life saver. Keep up the great videos.

@terrydawkins9936 2 года назад

After watching this, I realized it could be that the water filter wasn’t put in right. I took it out and put it back in, and voila! The water dispenser is working! Thank you.

@johnnykuhn9111 4 года назад

Your reaction at the beginning when no water came out was nowhere near vulgar enough :) The hairdryer thing totally worked, btw! Thanks

@jeffostroff 4 года назад

Oh wow! Glad to help out another one! Been getting a lot of people reporting the hair dryer trick worked. Too bad our's was a lot more work to do changing the filter head in another video.

Wouldn't unplugging the fridge to allow the reservoir to thaw out on its own? I have a Samsung and the reservoir is not so obvious to see to aim a hair dryer at...

You're awesome! Just a little freezing after doing a cleaning. 2 minutes with a hair dryer and we were up and running! You saved me 💸💸💸💸

@kelleyforbes8625 7 месяцев назад

Jeff, we followed your video instructions and are not screwed! In the end, it was a frozen water line but that issue wasn’t immediately apparent. We took the hair dryer to the door and, with still no water, looked at the water inlet valve. After ordering a new valve on line ($100!) we pushed the fridge back against the wall which I think jostled loose the frozen bits in the line. After getting it back in place we decided to give the water dispenser more Hail Mary press and we had water! Needless to say we are returning the inlet valve once it arrives. Thanks for your video.

@jeffostroff 7 месяцев назад

@adamg188 4 года назад

Thank you for putting the video on here. I had an issue with no water coming out! Used a hair dryer for 5 mins over the water storage unit inside the fridge. Water is working fine now, thank you👌🏻

@douglogan4380 3 года назад

Thanks! This one helped me! Mine was kind of #4. I went to look at the valve and found it had somehow come unplugged. The refrigerator came with the house, and it had never worked. Your video and 30 min of troubleshooting and it was working!

@jeffostroff 3 года назад

Awesome Doug, glad to hear you solved it. Those valves can be $70 if you have to replace. Previous owner would be upset to know that's all it was!

@gordonwhitten9997 Год назад

Jeff, very helpful. We have a GSS25LSTASS GE Side by side. The reservoir was frozen, and the set point was 34F. Adjusted the setpoint to 38F, thawed the reservoir. At the same time, noticed that the solenoid that controlled the ice flap door was rusted. We had observed that when the water or ice button was pushed, the display went blank. Removed the solenoid, verified that it was not open circuit, and then removed the solenoid plunger, sanded it lightly and now we have both water and ice!!! Thanks!

@ajcicala 3 года назад

I can't believe you actually had me blow-drying my fridge. But I really can't believe it actually worked! Thanks! FYI, my reservoir was inside a little door under my veggie drawers when I pulled them out. And I had a single outlet water valve, so this fixed my water and ice!

@jeffostroff 3 года назад

Fantastic!

@quezster 6 месяцев назад

Worked for me too! I got out the hair dryer, put it on high, and glided it back and forth across the "hidden" reservoir for less than 3 minutes. The water dispenser immediately worked perfectly again ... on my first try! Thanks for the video and instructions on how to fix. Your solution was not included in the Kithenaid manual.

@teresagreen6577 Год назад

After checking filter, clogged water line all of which were fine, then I used hair dryer on water reservoir. Bingo!! Now we have water in door!! Thank you soo much!! You were a life saver

@davedampman2626 4 года назад

@hohonj 2 года назад

#3 fixed mine. The water reservoir was frozen and 5 minutes with a hair dryer did the trick. Turns out, someone left my fridge open all night so it must have been cranking cold air over night and froze it. Thanks Jeff!

@jeffostroff 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing

@wayneloustel9474 Год назад

Yes Jeff you're a lifesaver I was getting zero water out of my water for my fridge I went on Frigidaire to find a manual when I typed in my model number toasters came up so my biggest problem was those two little plastic tips you have to push in so I took the airline and the wife blew it out I pushed the plastic tips I heated up the inside of the fridge to thaw my water reservoir then I blew backwards through my water reservoir the wife caught all the water then I took a large syringe and I pumped in a couple of syringe's full of vinegar in the line that feeds everything right from my RO machine I don't have a filter because I use an RO machine. You were a lifesaver now my wife and I can quit fighting for a little while.

@colejonathan3309 Год назад

An added advice is to make sure the temperature of the fridge isn’t above what’s recommended. As well after warming up the water reservoir place a foam , type of insulation, behind the reservoir to prevent it from freezing up again.

@bobbynolan385 4 года назад

Like most of the others is was a frozen reservoir. Never would have thought of that. Thank you!

@jeffostroff 4 года назад

Awesome, glad to hear you fixed it Bobby! In my fridge, unlucky me it was the expensive and pain in the butt fix. I had to replace the filter head and hose assembly, $65 part.

@stormcattoche9500 3 года назад

OMG!! Fixed on the first suggestion! So thankful! It was the water filter inserted incorrectly.

@Candipurrfumgirl 3 года назад

Thank you so much for all the info. I was able to fix my fridge and avoid the expensive of a tech. We first checked the water lines in the back which seemed fine. I then replaced my filter thinking it was clogged or just old cuz I'm sure it was overdue. The water was still not dispensing. My daughter had mentioned the soda was frozen this morning so I tried the hairdryer technique and I got some flow but was still not normal. So I pulled the fridge back out and it seems when my husband checked the lines he also kinked the line. We had 2 issues, original issue frozen water reservoir, ours being a coiled line in behind the veggie drawer, and then a kinked hose. Lol Thanks again!

@jeffostroff 3 года назад

That's why I hate copper lines, those 1/4" lines kink so easily

@brandonfoken3472 2 года назад

My issue were the two white dots. I pushed them in with a pen and received a blast of cold water to the face!! We don’t have a water filter installed so I just put back on the bypass cap and voila. It works again! Thanks for the video

@TheConstructiveCritic888 8 месяцев назад

Yes! Thank you for your comment! I first tried the blow dryer and it didn’t work. But I read your comment. So I took a pencil and pushed in the dot and got sprayed in the face too 😂 So right then I knew that there was running water getting to the filtration unit. So I pushed in a second time just to get more in, and then I twisted the filter much more this time. My wife always has an issue with how much I twist things and asked me not to do it again… well… once I twisted it enough I could hear the air release from the filter and knew I was in business! Thank YOU for the comment and thank the man that posted this video for getting me on track!

Thanks for the video! Finally figured out my issue after trying so much and looking at all the videos of yours. You set me on the path lol. Our previous condo owner had installed a leak safety hose and when I changed the filter it set it off. That was the issue. Just needed to reconnect to reset the hose switch thing. You should add this if you ever update the video.

I wrote that I couldn’t budge the filter, but I used my hairdryer for about 5 minutes. When it didn’t work, I started revving up to fix the switch. As I was pursuing this, the fridge made some noise (my husband was finally able to get the filter off and changed). We went and tested the water dispenser and voile! It worked. Think it was the hairdryer that did the trick.

@briansee2387 4 года назад

Hair dryer worked great...TY. Also had same model fridge.

@jeffostroff 4 года назад

Awesome Brian, glad it worked out for you so easily. You dodged a major bullet by it not being your filter head, because it was a 2 month wait for the part on back order.
