Whirlpool WPW10370594 Refrigerator Pad
Product Description
The Whirlpool WPW10370594 is a dispenser actuator pad, which is an essential component of your fridge's dispenser system. This pad serves as a pressure sensor and is situated close to the dispenser spout. The pad compresses and transmits a signal to the dispenser control board when you press your glass or cup against it to distribute ice or water. This signal instructs the dispenser to start the ice-crushing mechanism or release the appropriate volume of water. Put more simply, it converts your hand's physical pressure into an electronic command that the dispenser may use. Dispenser actuator pads that malfunction can cause a number of problems. It's possible to have issues with erratic water flow, trouble starting the ice maker, or even a total dispenser failure.
