Thermistor Removal  

 
 
 

 
 
 
 
After the water valve is removed, the 
thermistor can be accessed and 
remove. 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
It is pushed into the dispenser box 
and held in place by the water valve 
and is sealed with an O-ring. 
 
Remove thermistor by pulling up on 
lip of thermistor. Ensure O-ring is 
removed with the thermistor.
