How to promte the "Water Dispenser?

Why won't the water dispenser stop leaking from the filter housing on my frigidaire refrigerator?

  • I've finally fixed the water pressure problem by replacing the self tapping valve with a normal valve, but water still leaks from the filter housing when the dispenser is activated. So basically anytime I fill a glass with water or water is periodically filled into the ice dispenser, a good bit leaks from the side of the filter into the fridge. I couldn't possibly put any more teflon tape on it and the seal seems tight. What's wrong? Its a Pure Source brand filtration system.

  • Answer:

    If the seal is in good shape the plastic filter housing is most likely cracked. Shut off your water, take the filter housing off and hold it up to a light. You may find it has a small crack in it. You can also fill it with water and wipe it dry on the sides and look for water seeping out the sides.

The filter housing is leaking because it has frozen & caused a crack. You need to have the housing replaced along with the air damper control. Frigidaire has had a problem with these not working right & causing freeze-ups.

absolutely a bad seal connection i had the same problem and i had the wrong seal on the filter connection some seals are for copper and some are for rubber

Could have a bad seal. try taking it apart and putting a little Vaseline on the rubber seals then put it back together. This will make the seal swell and soften just ever so slightly. Good luck
