whirlpool fridge leaks at door water dispenser problem

Jun 29, 2005 6 Replies

I have a whirlpool fridge that when you get a glass of water out of the door water dispenser .. it kinda just goes everywhere. I think I could probably fix it if I could figure out how to get the darn cover off.



anybody know how this cover comes off .. there are no screws accessable do it probably snaps off .. but I dont want to break it.



the fridge is realatively new (about 1 1/2 yrs old )



thanks for any advice mojo


Look up from under with a mirror and see how it leaks.

it almost acts like there is a whole in the plastic pipe .. BUT .. i will not know until i can get AT the thing .. which requires me to get the access/faceplace cover off.

does anybody know if this thing just snaps off .. or do i have to bumped it up or something like.

thank a lot though for the reply mojo

I have a 1 1/2 year old Sears Kenmore (They are made by Whirlpool) model number 106.53854300. Sears has their illustrated parts catalog online. Maybe a look at it will help you. Go to

formatting link
and there will be a link to parts on the left. Enter my model number and see if the door dispenser section looks like yours.

Generally, you have to peel back the magnetic seal on most fridges to get at the screws and remove the inner door liner. After that you get access to the innards of the door.
