OK, this is a new one to me. This morning I went to get some water from the fridge. Pushed in the actuator, the valves make the appropriate noise but all I get is some slow drips. But as I am holding the glass I see the drips speeding up.
Figured maybe the line was partially frozen so I kept holding the switch reasoning this would eventually melt the blockage. Drips get faster and faster, then after about 40 seconds the water is up to full stream. Great?
This evening I go to get a glass of water. Same problem. What the heck?
I replaced the entire water fill valve assembly in June because a "service tech" diagnosed it as the cause of our lack of ice in the ice maker. He was wrong, it was a frozen ice fill tube. But I'd already installed the new valve and water flow seemed better.
Any idea what might cause the water dispenser to act blocked but then eventually get back to full blast? Have not changed the freezer or fridge temp settings.
Thanks.
