Dacor Refrigerator Error Code F19

The F19 error code on a Dacor refrigerator indicates a failure in the water valve solenoid. The water valve solenoid is responsible for opening and closing the water valve to supply water to the ice maker.

The most likely solution to the F19 error code is to replace the water valve solenoid. The water valve solenoid is a relatively inexpensive and easy-to-replace part.

Troubleshooting Steps:

Before replacing the water valve solenoid, you should perform a few troubleshooting steps to verify that the solenoid is the actual cause of the error code.

1. Check the water supply to the refrigerator. Make sure that the water supply is turned on and that the water pressure is adequate.
2. Check the ice maker door. Make sure that the door is closed properly.
3. Check the ice maker bin. Make sure that the bin is not full.

If you have checked all of these things and you are still seeing the F19 error code, then it is likely that the water valve solenoid is faulty.

To replace the water valve solenoid:

1. Unplug the refrigerator from the power outlet.
2. Remove the screws that secure the ice maker to the refrigerator.
3. Remove the ice maker from the refrigerator.
4. Locate the water valve solenoid. It is usually located near the bottom of the ice maker.
5. Disconnect the wires from the water valve solenoid.
6. Remove the screws that secure the water valve solenoid to the refrigerator.
7. Install the new water valve solenoid.
8. Connect the wires to the new water valve solenoid.
9. Reinstall the ice maker to the refrigerator.
10. Plug the refrigerator back into the power outlet.

Once you have replaced the water valve solenoid, the F19 error code should be cleared. If the error code persists, then you may need to contact a qualified technician for further diagnosis and repair.

Additional Information:

The water valve solenoid is a relatively small, cylindrical component that is typically made of plastic. It has two wires that connect it to the refrigerator’s control board. The solenoid is activated by a signal from the control board. When the solenoid is activated, it opens the water valve, allowing water to flow to the ice maker.

The water valve solenoid can fail for a variety of reasons, including:

• Electrical overload
• Mechanical failure
• Corrosion

If you are not comfortable replacing the water valve solenoid yourself, you can contact a qualified technician for assistance.
