How to Remove the Water Dispenser on Amana Refrigerators

If you own an Amana refrigerator with a water dispenser on the front door, you might experience problems with water leaking or water not coming out of the dispenser. For example, if the circuit board within the water dispenser malfunctions, you must remove the entire part from the outside of the refrigerator door. An Amana water dispenser part can be ordered through the manufacturer or purchased from an online retailer.
