Possible Causes
Damaged chute door gasket, Chute door not closing fully, Cracked dispenser housing, High humidity environment with poor sealing
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Disconnect power before removing dispenser trim.
- Inspect chute door: Check that the chute flap closes completely after dispensing. If it hangs open, the spring or motor may be faulty.
- Examine gasket: Look for tears or compression set in the chute door gasket. Replace if it does not seal tightly.
- Check housing: Inspect the dispenser housing for cracks that allow warm air in. Replace damaged parts.
- Reduce humidity: In very humid climates, ensure the room is conditioned and that the refrigerator doors are not left open unnecessarily.
