Unhappy Maytag Water Dispenser problem

I have a sie by side Maytag model MZD2766GE fridge.
The water dispenser in the door quite often does not shut off in time.

I figure there must be a switch of some sort behind that rubber pad that controls the on and off. Better replace it before it totally fails.

So I assume I need a part number and how to get to it and any thing else I would need to know to replace this.

Many thanks in advance. Yo uhave been very helpful for this "newbie" in the past.

Sounds like the water dispenser switch is sticking.

Here is the part you will need to order:
Switch, limit

Thank you Jake. I went to that sit eyou mentioned to order...and since I amfrom Canada I dont believe I am able to.
The other question I had on istallation...I assume I would hvae to take off the flexible rubber that presses on the switch.
Is there something I have to know to do that..or do I go at if from behind everything? Just dont know how to get to the switch.
