Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Water or ice dispenser is intermittently unresponsive.
• Dispenser paddle is cracked, damaged, sticks, or does not return to its resting position.
• Dispenser activates inconsistently or without normal paddle operation.
• Paddle movement is normal but the dispenser circuit does not receive the expected switch signal.

Check Before Replacing

• Disconnect refrigerator power before accessing the dispenser assembly or wiring.
• Visually inspect the paddle for cracks, distortion, looseness, sticking, or failure to return to position.
• Confirm the paddle moves freely and actuates the switch without excessive force.
• Inspect accessible wiring-harness connectors for looseness or visible damage with power disconnected.
• If qualified and using the model-specific wiring information, test switch continuity with the refrigerator disconnected from power while pressing and releasing the paddle.
• If the paddle switch checks correctly, investigate the dispenser control, wiring, water valve, ice-door mechanism, or water supply rather than assuming this part is defective.
