Water valve problem w/ refrigerator? Leaking water dispenser and ice maker!?
Frigidaire side by side FRS26RLECSC. For past 2 weeks (right before Christmas, of course) water has been spewing out of dispenser whenever the icemaker is being filled. Also, when getting water out of dispenser, water overflows from the icemaker into the ice cube bin – this then freezes, causing a solid block of ice in the bin. We have placed a cup under the dispenser to catch the spew (ice is still being made), and we shut off the icemaker when we leave the house, so there is no spewing while we’re out.
Have seen a couple of appliance blogs that point to water intake valve as likely culprit.
Anybody with a similar problem or experience in this area? If this is indeed the problem, I’d like to order the part myself, but I don’t want to waste time and money if we’ll just need to bring in a repairman anyway.
Thanks!
better to call a good repair man.
What website shows the values of resistance, voltage, and current in certain appliances?
I need to find all 3 of those for 5 different appliances and prove the equation I = V/R. Any websites that list these specs on appliances, couldn’t find this on sites like Best Buy.
you will never find all 3 listed, for several reasons.
first, one of the 3 is redundant, and can be calculated from the other 2.
second, most Appliances do not present an ohmic load, so a resistance number has no meaning. They will list wattage or current at a specified voltage, usually 120 or 240 VAC.
