Quck answer
If your Frigidaire water dispenser is not working, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can take. First, check if the water supply is properly connected and turned on. Next, make sure the water filter is clean and not clogged. If the dispenser is still not working, try resetting the dispenser by unplugging it for a few minutes and then plugging it back in. If none of these steps work, it may be a problem with the dispenser’s internal components, and you may need to contact Frigidaire for further assistance or to schedule a repair.
Electrolux Home Products provides a one-year warranty for Frigidaire refrigerators. During this period, Electrolux offers free repair for defective parts, including the water dispenser. However, the warranty does not cover water filters and appliance bulbs. If your Frigidaire refrigerator’s water dispenser is not working correctly, troubleshoot it to address common issues. If the problem persists, contact Electrolux for service.
Water Dispenser Not Dispensing
Step 1
Open the shutoff valve on the water line by turning it counterclockwise all the way.
Step 2
Press the “Water Filter” button to check the filter status. If the filter needs replacement, turn off the ice maker and remove the old cartridge by sliding it out. Insert a new cartridge and push it until it clicks into place. Fill a glass with water by pressing the dispenser lever and discard it. Repeat this process for four minutes to flush the system. Turn on the ice maker and press and hold the “Water Filter” button for three seconds to reset the filter status.
Step 3
Check if the filter is correctly installed if water still doesn’t dispense. Ensure that the filter is clicked into place.
Low Water Pressure
Step 1
Turn the shutoff valve counterclockwise to fully open the water line.
Step 2
If you have a reverse osmosis system, wait for the regenerative phase to finish. Water pressure is low during this period.
Step 3
Adjust the cut-off and cut-on pressure on the water pump if you have a well system. Seek professional help if you’re not familiar with the well pump system.
Odor or Bad Taste
Step 1
Put a glass under the dispenser and press the lever. Discard the water and refill the glass ten times to rinse the tank.
Step 2
Check the water line connection and ensure that the cold water line is connected to the kitchen faucet. Reinstall the line if necessary.
Step 3
Replace the water filter. An old or dirty filter can cause the water to have an odd taste.
