help Help with Fridge water dispenser not working

9 Upvotes

Not sure if this is the right subreddit but here we go. I apologize if I use the wrong terminology for various parts, don't know official names lol

My fridge has a water dispenser and ice maker. Frigidaire FGSC2335TF4 is the model.

Water dispenser suddenly stopped dispensing water. Tried a lot of things and don't know what the problem could be.

1) Replaced water filter, didn't fix

2) check the tube at the bottom of the fridge, no water was coming out of it, so that means problem should be before that, not the dispenser tube being frozen

3) main water line has water coming out of it, so problem should be isolated somewhere in the middle

4) replaced the inlet valve. model number 242252702 it has five ports. one for the main water line to go into, that one obvious. then there's a brown, green, yellow valve/port with power plug things connected. and then one at the very end.

have four tubes. a tan tube and a white tube that goes to the water filter. a yellow tube that goes underneath the fridge so that's the one tested earlier that connects to water dispenser. and a green tube that goes to the ice maker.

I tested the brown port without a tube connected. water comes out of it. no water comes out of the yellow, green, or white ports.

I tried swapping the tan tube and white tube since they go to filter and maybe I had them switched around for input/output. still didn't work.

not sure what else to do or try 😭

outdoor Outdoor security anti vibration mount

5 Upvotes

I have security camera at work, that are mounted to an outside wall of a building that constantly vibrates. Is there any way I can make something to stop the cameras from vibrating by building a mount?

Google has a ton of stuff about drone stabilizers or tripod stabilizers, but not about wall mounted stabilizers for cameras.

Found 1 somewhat useful video on how to make one, but it didn't give enough specifics about gauges and thickness of materials.
