Maytag side by side fridge water dispenser not working

I have a maytag side by side fridge model # MSD2356AEW. My problem is that the water dispenser is not working. The ice dispenser & maker work fine. Any suggestions?

There are two water inlet valves on the back of refrigerator, one for icemaker the other for water in door. the valve for the water inlet is plugged or the soelinoid coil is bad. replace faulty valve, usually about 20 to 30 greenbacks at the appliance parts store

More than likely, it is the Water Control Valve(Solenoid). There is probably a dual valve, one for Ice and one for water.

The one for my Kenmore usaully costs around $32. IN 14 years, I have replaced it 3 times.

Maytag side by side fridge...water dispenser problem

If the water is visible in the front, more than likely the hose has become disconnected from the door, if you look at the lower left hand corner you should see the hose come from underneath the machine and attach to the door via a plastic quick connect, it is just a push lock connection. You may have to pull of the toe kick and the left hand end cap depending on the model to see this.

Water leaking underneath refrigerator/water freezing in bottom of freezer

I'm dealing with the same problem right now with the same refrigerator. The cold water tank (for the front dispenser) has a hole in it that leaks every time someone dispenses water from the front door. You will find the water tank behind the top slide-out drawer in the fridge. The leaked water flows down one of the water tubes through a hole in the bottom of the fridge and onto the floor. I'll bet you have the same problem. Good Luck.
