Our machine suddenly stopped dispensing. Both got and cold. All lights are on. Have unplugged for 30 mins and plugged back in. No change. Emptied machine and plugged back in. It never refilled.k. Any advice?
The issue could be with the pump or a clog in the supply line. Since the tank is empty and the pump does not seem to activate, the machine may not be drawing water from the bottle. Try cleaning the supply line with fresh water and pressure. If the problem continues, the pump may need to be replaced.

The cold water no longer works, is there a way to fix that?
If your Whirlpool 8LIECH-SC-SSS-5L-W water cooler is not dispensing cold water, but the compressor is running and the indicator light shows normal operation, try the following steps:
1. Check the Blue Switch: Ensure the blue switch for cold water is turned ON. If it's OFF, the cold water function will not operate.
2. Allow Cooling Time: After setup, it can take over an hour for the water to reach cold temperature. The compressor may run continuously during this time to build the “Ice Bank.”
3. Inspect Cooling Tube: If only the section of the cooling tube closest to the compressor is warm and the rest is cold, there may be a refrigerant flow issue or blockage. This could indicate a sealed system failure.
If these steps do not resolve the issue and the cooling tube remains mostly cold, it may be a sealed system problem, which is difficult and expensive to repair. In that case, replacing the unit might be more practical.
