[@theoriginalrjt21]

Thank you! Yours was the only video to clearly show the proper way to remove the front panel lower clips. Knowing I needed a new door flap and there was a retrofit kit that doesn't have the flap heater - and also a kit to repair broken door hinges internally if needed, I wanted to remove the panel prior to ordering to ensure I only needed the new door kit and also to unplug the door flap heater that is contributing to the dripping water caused by the also worn out foam on the door flap.

Thanks for the insight on how to pop off the cover. Only concern was after I was done and stepped back and I noticed indentations on my black refrigerator below the cover from the tac remover. That being said I have a recommendation for you and or anyone else. When popping off the cover with a tac remover or flat head place a thin piece of wood against the refrigerator and use that to pry against to avoid indentations on your fridge.

[@KevinNeustadter]

I found out my issue from your video (thanks). When I took the cover off, I saw that the water dispenser microswitch was loose. Looks like the 2 pins that hold the microswitch broke off. That is why the water paddle stays in and does not spring out. I hit the microswitch and it dispenses water. Switch just doesn't stay in place. I'll have to replace that bracket, I guess. Just need to figure out the part number for my Whirlpool Fridge model ED5VHEXVQ00, just in case you sell it and I can buy it from you (although I see this video was made 9 years ago).

That's exactly what brought me here. I was trying to remove the front cover, to access the shute area better, to clean, and remove the mold. My wife was being tortured by it. The biggest help was learning how to remove the cover, by starting at those 2 pressure points at the bottom.

I am pretty sure that was a mistake. I think that is why they stopped recording to clear up that the problem wasn't under the refrigerator. The problem was in the door not under the refrigerator.

I think the tech figured out that the front panelhad to be connected, and that was why nothing was shown on the plate.

Sounds like someone reversed the water lines on the two water valves located in the back of the refrigerator. One valve should be operated by the ice maker timer and control water into the ice maker.
