Thermador Dispenser Water Path Restriction

The water dispenser is not working, but the ice maker still produces ice.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Frozen water line in the door, Clogged water filter, Faulty dispenser switch or actuator, Kinked dispenser line

Safety first: Unplug the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before disconnecting lines.

Steps to check:

Replace filter: Install a new filter and purge the air from the system.
Check for a frozen line: Open the freezer door and feel along the water line area in the door. If it feels frozen, increase the freezer temperature slightly and allow it to thaw.
Test dispenser switch: Remove the dispenser cover and test the switch for continuity when pressed. Replace it if it's faulty.
Inspect tubing: Check for kinks in the line from the valve to the dispenser.
