The ice dispenser door keeps opening and close by itself how do I stop it
Hello Dennis;
My name is Peter. I am a retired field service technician.
You did not provide a model number. So, I am going to speak in general. It sounds like you have a bad or stuck contact switch. Or, you ice dispenser handle is broken and activating the dispenser.
You contact switch will look like the following:
There are two slots on the bottom of the dispenser frame for a flat head screw driver. Pop the bottom out. The rest of the frame is held by plastic tabs. Push in the sides to remove the frame.
Ground yourself by touching something that is steal. Static electricity will knock out a board. Remove the board. You will see the contact switch.
Send me the model number and I can be more specific.
Go into the following web site and put in your model number for diagrams and the part number.
