Putting in the new water filter to the Whirlpool gold fridge that goes in at the bottom.

Remove the filter and reinsert with force..
Whirlpool Fridges have many styles, the more common
one to make noise is the style with the filter inside the
fresh food compartment hanging from the ceiling. This
is the Amana Bottom Freezer. If I'm correct: remove the
the filter and apply a thin film of vegetable oil on the rim
of the filter locking collar. This may allow the filter to turn
abit more, enabling water to flow faster..
There are 2 light blue pins the locking collar must push in
when turned. If this does not remedy replace the filter head
assembly.(Part the filter attaches to)

Did you inspect if the hole in the drain inside the fridge at the bottom is not blocked? Try to clean it with a swab. Sometimes this causes a "leakage" of condensed water.

Hello Dollar1392,

I understand that you can not locate the water filter for your unit. If you have a water filter in your unit it will be located in one of two locations at the bottom of the unit in the grille or in the top of the refrigerator section on the right side in the rear corner. If the filter is not located at one of these locations then there is no filter on your unit. You will need to put an in-line filter in your water supply line.

may be air and will cure itself

down in the front grill at the bottom of the fridge you will see the filter and just the the left of it you will see a button. push the button in and that will pop the filter out a bit. pull it out and put the black cover that was on your old filter and put on your new one. then just push it in

the drain in the freezer is clog make sure the drain from the freezer is clean all the way to the pan next to the compressor . you need to open the back wall of your freezer for that ( the inside wall) clean with buster (water pump)the drain is in the bottom middle of the freeze.

most whirlpools have the filter located in the bottom kickplate, right below the freezer door. turn counter-clockwise and toward you to remove. if it has never been removed before, they are hard to get out the first time.

The problem can still be in your lines, or in the dispenser itself. If you run hot water with a little bit of vinegar in the lines and let it sit for about 30 minutes and then flush the whole system this should take care of your problem

maye be your switch on the door or water valve

1. Water comes from water pipe, usually with a shut off valve (open??).
2. Fridge has a small filter (for sand etc.) at inlet. (not clogged??)
3. Water travels to solenoid valve, and waits for request. (do you hear it click when water requested??)
4. Water usually goes to a fine filter..(these fail (plug) quite regularly).
5. Water goes through storage in back of cool section (Inside fridge- is it full of water?).
6. Water goes to ice maker on fill request.
7. ?? Is the power switch "on" (to icemaker)??
8. ?? Is the full / stop filling paddle/bar up?
9. ...ask me more questions
