Whirlpool Refrigerator Dispenser Assembly Replacement

소개

Use this guide to replace the dispenser assembly in your Whirlpool Refrigerator.

The dispenser assembly controls how your ice and water is dispensed out of your refrigerator. If your refrigerator is not dispensing properly, then the dispenser assembly might be broken.

This guide will work for most Whirlpool refrigerators. This guide is written with a model WRS315SDHW refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.

Note: Some photos show the doors removed for clarity purposes. Removing them is not required and will not change the procedure.
