Hello,

I just bought a home with a Frigidaire FRS26ZRG. I do not know the history of the unit. It does not make ice and when I try to use the water dispenser, I can hear a humming sound but no water comes out. I checked the water supply line and there is definitely water going into the unit as the puddle in my kitchen can attest to. Next time I will bring a bucket.

I removed the filter and it did not help. I tried using the dispenser with the filter cover removed and nothing happened (except the humming sound). I have read other threads on this forum regarding replacing some valves but before I started ordering parts I wanted to know if there is anything I should try first.

When replying please take into consideration that while I can take apart and reassemble a supercomputer blindfolded, I have no knowledge or experience with appliances and couldn't tell the difference between a solenoid and a flux capacitor. Please don't mistake my inexperience for being obtuse.

Regards,

Steve in Alaska

Since I posted, now a LITTLE water trickles out when I try to get water and the unit has made about a dozen ice cubes. Is it still the valves or is there something else I can try? Also, I looked at the model number (inside the door) and the 2 letters you are refering to are not there. Is there someplace else I should be looking?

thanks for your help.

p.s. Is changing the valves something an idiot like I can do?

Not on the door.

The model# tag is located INSIDE the refrigerator section on the upper walls or ceiling.

Yes, you will still need the water inlet valves. Yes, You can do it.
