# GE water and ice dispenser repair

What this involves

Filter, line, valve — in that order

A frozen door line reads exactly like a dying valve

Crushed-only is the solenoid or the chute, not the auger

Filter age and water pressure

The six-month interval is optimistic here. Pressure at the valve is measured rather than assumed, because a house with low pressure produces this symptom with nothing broken.

Check the door line for ice

The tube through the door is the coldest part of the path. Partial ice gives a dribble that stops, and it is not a valve.

Valve and solenoids under test

Water and ice share a path and split at solenoids; 'crushed only' usually lives there rather than in the auger.

Chute, flap and seal

A flap that no longer closes lets warm air up the chute and frosts everything above it, which is how a dispenser problem becomes an icemaker one.

The measurement that closes it

Fill time at the dispenser, before and after. A dribble that improved is not the same as a dribble that was fixed, and only a number tells them apart.
