Frequently Asked Questions About Domestic Refrigerator Repair:

Water dispenser not working after a move

I recently moved and when I reconnected the water line to my refrigerator, the ice maker now works (i.e. gets water and makes ice), however the chilled water dispenser doesn't work (i.e. no water coming out)...Any ideas on what is wrong and how to fix it?

Hmmm, you didn't mention what kind of refrigerator it is so I'm just guessing. You most likely have a dual solenoid, (the device you hook your water line to). Perhaps the plug on dispenser side vibrated off during your move. Or if you took your door off maybe the jack for the ice and water dispenser is not all the way in.

Other then that did the reservoir tank drain out during the move? Try calling for water for a longer period of time. Maybe the tank is not quite full yet.
