Exclamation Water Dispenser doesn't work icemaker does
Brand: Amana
Model Number: SQD25NB2L
Age: More than 10 years

My Amana SQD25NB2L is 14 years old. The icemaker works, but the water dispenser stopped working. The water filter has been changed, and there are no kinks in the supply hoses. The water pressure is probably ok, since the ice maker works.

How can I get the water dispenser to work?

Thanks

For starters try this.

Reset your water filter indicator light - Most new refrigerators come equiped with an indicator light that notifies you when it is time to change your water filter. This light does not automatically reset when you change your water filter. Here is a list of refrigerator manufacturers and how to reset the indicator light.

I couldn't tell the manufacturer of your fridge from the model number.

Amana Refrigerators - Press and hold the Auto and Dispenser Lock buttons until the water filter status indicator light flashes.

Frigidaire Refrigerators - Press and Hold the Reset Button Until the Indicator Light Flashes.

GE General Electric Refrigerators - Press and Hold the Reset Button for around 8 Seconds.

HotPoint Refrigerators - Press and Hold the Reset Button for around 8 Seconds.

Jenn-Air Refrigerators - Press and Hold The Light and Lock Buttons until the Water Filter light flashes.

Kitchen Aid Refrigerators - Press and Release the Light Button 5 times Quickly.

Maytag Refrigerators - Press and Hold The Light and Lock Buttons until the Water Filter light flashes.

Samsung Refrigerators - Press and Hold the Ice Type and Child Lock Buttons at the same time for 3 seconds.

Whirlpool Refrigerators - Press and Release the Light Button 5 times Quickly.

Question

Thanks for the detailed response, Woodchuck.
The brand is Amana, model # SQD25NB2L. It is a 25 cubic ft. side-by-side model.

I'm unable to locate the auto and dispenser lock buttons. Where should I look for them?

Thank you,
Will

My Amana Refridgerator doesn't have a reset indicator light on it so therefore I can't reset it. I tried to get water and none would come out...then it started hissing at me and then I changed the filter and very little comes out and it leaked out onto the floor.
