How to repair fridge water dispenser WPW10394053 hammering noise refrigerator dispenser not working

[@EricTheRea]

3:13 "and this is a very clean house" Dude, we all just saw the front of the fridge. 😂 But great video! Thanks for the help!

[@alanjakes7317]

I was able to replace my Housing thanks to your guidance. Although I would make one recommendation. I had a lot of difficulty in releasing the Hoses. And really gave up on prying the Larger Hose loose. I needed a way to put pressure on both sides while pulling on the Hose. Using a Screwdriver, and the like, was not working at all. I then remembered I had a Palm Sized Adjustable Wrench. Once I adjusted it appropriately the Hose popped out almost instantly. This method worked best for me and may for others as well. Still without your Video about Replacement I never would have even tried to do the Repair. Thank you very much for your assistance.

I appreciate the info. That’s a great idea, my friend.

[@gobic1319]

This was a real help. Your instructions were great, thanks!

[@Joker96G]

Dude! This video rocks! Because of you, my water filter housing has been replaced and I have no more leaking water! On a side note, I bought the exact part number replacement housing, but the flip up door was slightly larger. I was unable to mount the plastic slide plate (beauty cover) after installation. So I simply swapped out that flip up door for my existing one and BOOM! Perfect fit! Again, your thorough video is hands down a time saver. Have a great weekend and God bless!

Our filter head as you called it was leaking. We were have cooling problems and food was freezing. I suspect the filter head froze and cracked. I just received our new filter housing replacement and hope this corrects the leak. I was able to set the Fridge thermostat to 46 degrees. Wish me luck. I used a open end wrench to depress the two lock rings. Thx for your help. Took hours to finally find this video. Thx, Don

Great video. Now I know how to solve the hammering noise in Whirlpool fridge. Thanks.

I appreciate the comments

I didn't have the same fridge mine was a Whirlpool wrs325fdam04 but it was the housing and it fixed the issue. Appreciate the video

[@paulcouch1549]

Like I previously stated, just what I needed. Thanks Raleigh's video, I was able to replace the water dispenser on Christmas eve mourning! Don't know why anyone with any skills would dislike. Thanks for your time and effort Raleigh.

[@nelsonsantiago2514]

Great video, it worked for me on our Kenmore made by Whirpool. Using a 12mm wrench to push down while pulling made it easier to get the pipes out. Thanks for sharing.

[@WestCliffe_Jedi]

Great video! Thank you so much for helping me replace my water filter housing on my Whirlpool WSF26C2EXY02 refrigerator! I appreciate the thoroughness, verbal commentary and camera angles of this video! It was very helpful!

[@F4FWildcat]

I will be doing this same repair this week. Thanks for being a trailblazer. The only thing I may do different is test the system before putting the fasteners back in place.

[@BettyWang-ro8nl]

Thank you for your video, Jones! I replaced my filter housing kit successfully and no more hammering noise. 👍👍👍

This video helped us tremendously! Between getting the devise off the water tubes, to splaying out the tabs, we could not have replaced our filter head with out your help. Much appreciated!!!

I appreciate your comment thank you

[@randyberg2285]

Thank you for the part about flaring out the tabs!!! What a pain in the ass!!!🎉

[@steve.2784]

Great Video ..... I have a whirlpool model WRS586FLDB01 approx. 3 years old. It was doing the exact same thing (hammering). Ordered part from Amazon $79.14 USD Cost. I just finished the install. It took me about 1.5 hours. As stated in the video the toughest part was getting the right tube out of the old head. Thankx for the help. x Its has been 4 years since I did this job the first time. The replacement head I put on 4 years ago has now gone bad. The new part is on order. Once again I do want to thank you for posting this video.

[@quensimpson8282]

Great tutorial just used this video to replace on mine as well and working now. Toughest part is definitely getting those valves off! Thank you 🙏

[@stevevanhoose1549]

This helped me. I wish I had seen this before I pulled the back off to test the inlet valve coils. I found this after they tested ok and needed to look further for a cause. Mine was acting the same way, the hammering would stop if you pulled the filter out and reinstalled, for a little while. I had no issue getting the tabs to drop in, maybe different from model to model. Thanks for the video

[@tylercarlson3959]

This video was super helpful, but needs one additional note. After turning off the cooling, open the ice maker and turn it off as well. Mine started up while the hoses weren’t connected and sprayed water in the fridge. Not sure it’s supposed to run while it’s not cooling, but it did.

Good vid after hours of searching your is the closes housing to mine. We have the Kenmore Elite Model 106.51169 210 Water filter housing is in the same place as your demonstration. Our is leaking. Is the part numbers the same? And what P/N should I use. Kenmore website dose not have this Model number and it's their product. Numerous times you mentioned shooty manufacturing of product. Absolutely right. Any help would be appreciated. Thx, Don

I’m having that hammering issue but no leaking. I noticed if I put hard pressure against front door of filter housing the hammering stops as you draw water. Just what causes the hammering please?

[@bxu789]

Got the same problem with the water filter housing, which has a valve supposed to engaged when water filter is loaded.

[@rickdff62]

Thanks man. I have a different model of Samsung but at least I know what the issue is. I'll have to figure out how to replace it since my water filter is in the bottom by the vegetable crisper. Any wisdom you can lay on me about that? Thanks!

[@rickdff62]

[@supremesfan2]

I have a Kitchenaid, the water dispenser unit door does not stay closed after i had bought a new filter I had even took the filter back thinking that it was defective even with the exchanged filter the door still does not stay closed. Looks like I'm going to need a new dispenser the refrigerator is only 2 years old. Nothing is made to last anymore.

[@neverwasthere]

I have the exact same water filter housing like yours on my fridge. It's dripping or leaking constantly. I tried to replace the filters twice to no avail. So what could be the cause? Also the cartridge won't eject when the housing door flips open. The top piece is loose. How to re-attach the top piece back? Thanks, Josh

[@BayouRepairGuy]

You just need to replace the water filter head

[@neverwasthere]

@@BayouRepairGuyAre you referring to the water filter head on the housing unit, not the two little rubber o-ring's on the water filter itself, right? If this is the case, then I have to buy a new housing unit then.

[@danieldaum6964]

This video was awesome.

[@jfisch01]

Nit sure if I missed it, but do you have to shut the water off to the fridge first?

[@BayouRepairGuy]

You don’t have to do it because the valve on my model is an interrupter and so there’s no pressure going to it

[@BayouRepairGuy]

There’s only pressure when you call for water

[@jfisch01]

@@BayouRepairGuy thank you. I've ordered the part. I can't see where mines leaking but it's definitely leaking from there and I've changed filters and it continues to leak. Worst refrigerator I've ever bought. I'll never buy whirlpool again. Thank you.

[@stevenazar9940]

Great video! my filter is stuck... opening the door does not pull out the filter. is there any way to get the filter out short of pulling this assembly? any catches or anything?

[@BayouRepairGuy]

Pliers

[@increasingrain]

@@BayouRepairGuy Mine is also stuck...there isn't enough of the filter stuck out for pilers to bite on to it. I guess I need to replace the assembly?

[@Sandra760tx]

Hi … I have a question for you. You say it could be one of two things: the water filter head assembly or the valve. I have the same problem exactly on my Whirlpool (different model). I removed the water filter & used the bypass plug & it still made the hammering noise & water flow slowed to nothing. Does that mean it would be the valve for me, or should I try the water filter head assembly like you did? Thanks!

[@Sandra760tx]

@@BayouRepairGuy Thanks so much! Your video was a huge help!

[@alanhouse1641]

Very helpful! Thanks

[@tiffanyspiegel8514]

When I shut the filter door with no filter in, then the water works. So then is it my filter head or my valve? Thanks!!

[@MerryElle3]

In our case, it seems to be the water filter head. What do we do in that situation? We are using samsung's filters, not like we are using the wrong ones...Thank you!

[@stebensbobby]

I have an Amana one and its on the bottom front how do I replace the valve

[@jazzumin3400]

Mine is Mabe, and the hammering noise is coming from the water hose where the it comes out when you call for water, when I press the button to get water the clicking sound goes away I release the dispenser butting and it come back 😣

The water filter head assembly with allow on some models for the water to bypass flow through it if the filter is removed

Attempting to replace the old filter housing. New one arrived. After removing the old one I notice the 90 degree water inlet elbow has a crack in it. Housing leak was not the problem. Where can I find this elbow and what part number might it be? Kenmore Elite Model 106.51169 210 Thx Don

What is the name of the part? I have the same refrigerator but cannot locate it because I don’t know the name of the part that you replaced.

Raleigh Jones thank you

[@shanec4441]

Mine is doing the same thing. Mine is a different model with filter between the crisper drawers

[@BayouRepairGuy]

It’s the same issue and solution

[@shanec4441]

Raleigh Jones I don’t want to spend $100 or $200 on a Samsung design flaw. I should make them pay for all the trouble I have had with this junk refrigerator. I believe my issue is the water filter head assembly based upon KZbin videos. I have a hammering sound that goes away when I remove the filter.

[@BayouRepairGuy]

Shane C I have replaced a lot of them but if you are using a Generic water filter it could be that water filter not the head

[@shanec4441]

Raleigh Jones I put in a brand new filter

[@BayouRepairGuy]

Shane C Then it only leaves the water filter head assembly
