Water dispenser drips after use but doesn't shut off completely and drips constantly.

If the water is coming from the water dispenser itself then most likely you have a water valve that bis going bad and it will only get worse.

if it is kicking off after u release the dispense button but still drips a bit then id say that the electric water solenoid is the problem not completely shutting off

Hi, If the water is dripping from the dispenser tube, you need a water valve. The valve is not shutting off completely. Check to make sure water is not dripping from ice chute. If the chute door doesn't seal off you will get moisture there and it will also frost up the ice chute.

Take care

you have a faulty water valved solenoid. when you actuate the water lever, the solenoid opens, to allow water flow, then closes to stop it. When you continue to get a dripping before or after, its because the solenoid is not closing completely. Only resolution is to replace the water valve.

Hi, this is a faulty water valve assembly that is not shutting the dispenser section completely. replacing this water valve assembly will fix the dripping issue you are having at this time.

If it's a constant drip then you need a new water valve.

I would suggest that you get a certified person to come out and look at it you very well could have bent the doors in the move.

but... if you want to do it yourself.

for your drip:
Flush air from the water system the first time it is used and after replacing the filter. Air trapped in the water line or filter may slowly travel through the coiled water reservoir to the dispenser, pushing any water ahead of it. This can cause the dispenser to drip. Water needs to completely fill the lines for all air to be cleared.

• Use a sturdy container to press and hold the water dispenser bar for 5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds. Repeat until the water begins to flow. Once the water begins to flow, continue pressing and releasing the dispenser bar (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) for an additional 2 minutes. Repeat if dripping starts again because air can re-enter from the water supply.
• As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt from the water dispenser.
• Make sure the refrigerator is connected to a cold water supply.

One or two drops of water immediately after dispensing is normal. It may be necessary to hold the container under the dispenser for 2 to 3 seconds after releasing the dispenser lever.

Try using straight vinger through the complete cycle then run plain water through the cycle see if that helps. It helps to clean the machine.

The fill valve that supplies the water may not be shutting off completely. Also check to see that the lever is closing completely.
