american style fridge freezer Need Help :)

Hello hopefully there is a fridge technician in here ?>

My water dispenser has stopped working but it still makes Ice.

Samsung RS7667FHCBC

I have checked

Supply pipe for pressure and obstructions - All clear
Resistance on the two solenoid valves on the inlet water valve - All Good
The water supply pipe through the door - Clear
Filter 4 weeks old and clear, water flows through it ok.
Microswitch on dispenser is working correctly.
I have ordered a new Reed Switch for the door but I don't think that is faulty.

Can anyone shed any more light on it. I will be eternally grateful to any help.

Chris

Think @OldCoals does Samsung I've only ever needed to sort ice makers out on them and our ones (electrolux group) water feeds in under freezer hinge.

Is it a Twin Cooler?

I have no idea but I might have fixed it

This has been going on for about a year, if we opened and shut the freezer door sometimes it would work. So I got my steps out and took the cover off the hinge and saw a Reed switch.
I bought a replacement one for £10.99 and it now works

It didn't work straight away though so Im not sure if that was the fix, all I know is it works every time which it hasn't done for well over a year.

Oh and yes its a twin cooler.

I also removed the storage bottle thingy from behind the salad (empty) box.
