Thank you guys for your help I really appreciated. Well to be honest I'm not really a appliance guru, all the information I have is the result of researching the net for 8 hours lol, so forgive me if I may sound like I don't know what I'm doing. Well that being said I will add more pictures to give you guys a different view hopefully that helps. @Chac_Mool: I placed an order for the water inlet valve which Mojavean also suggested. I had the same thought, if I order that water valve that it comes with the solenoid. Once my order comes in I will see if it comes with it. Thank you for your help. =) @Mojavean: I think you're correct, I've had this fridge for about 5 years so the possibility is very high that the design has changed. Yes, the part I'm trying to repair is located in the back at the bottom of the fridge where the water connection goes. The solenoid was connected to the 1/4" inlet marked as ice. "Can they be moved to the new style, if this is indeed a design change?" - Only thing is I am willing to try a new solenoid design but I wouldn't know which solenoid will work with the water inlet valve since the solenoid had a 3pin molex connection if that's what you call it. You can see this 3pin wire in the picture I have linked below. The link to the picture also shows the words that are molded on to the solenoid and also a picture when it's unscrewed off the water inlet valve. Hope it helps. Let me know if I haven't answered any questions, as I tried to answer each one the best I could. Keep in mind this is my first time repairing a fridge and this repair may not seem difficult I rather get all the help I can before I do anything I shouldn't do. Thank you guys for all the help.

I've been going through a similar process but with models without the second external drawer and or through-the-door water and ice. The Kitchenaid is a Whirlppol product and, as far as I can tell, is assembled with Whirlpool's other FD fridges at the factory in Amana, Iowa. Even though i apparently shares compoents with the other Whirlpool products, KA offers a ten year warranty on the sealed systems but the other Whirlpool fridges only give you a 1 year warrranty. KA's warranty is 1 year everything, parts and labor on the sealed systems through year five and parts only for years six through 10. Equally interesting, most Samsungs only give you a one year warranty like Whirlppols but the particular "four door" model has 5 year warranty on the sealed system. All of that being said, the warranty is only as good as the service companies you can call when you need help. Some places, you have choices. Others, you do not. Some service companies are good and some are terrible. The warranty isn't worth much if you have to wait three weeks to even get somebody to come out and look at your dead fridge. Do, do check on the warranty coverage and find out if you have choices. Samsung seems to have had particular difficulties in that area but Whirlpool brands often use the same low-bid service companies and can be equally bad. Getting some "hands-on" time is also excellent advice for making a choice. Look what what you like to keep in the fridge and how you can arrange the shelving to hold it. That fourth drawer may be very useful to some folks and a royal pain to others. Until you lay hands n it and see how the unit works for you, it can be really hard to tell if it will work for you or not. For instance, are you somebody who needs to store gallon jars of pickles? Maybe you will want to stash a 3 gallon pickle crock? Will you be brining 20 lb. turkeys? If so, can you arrange the shelving so that you can store these things conveniently? Do you need to supply milk to whole platoons of kids? If so, where are you going to put the containers? Maybe you have a world-class collection of mustards? Do you need slide-out shelves to access that half-acre collection of small condiment jars? How do the tempeature and humidty controls work for you? Sliders are fine for some folks and anathema to others.

As I mentioned previously we have the Samsung with the ice/water dispenser in the door. Had it in our previous fridge and never had a repair in the 10+ years we owned it. With this new Samsung we have only had water drips down the door a couple times in the past 15 months. The key is to train family members to wait a second or two before removing the glass after stopping the water flow so that the last drops of water go in the glass. I did forget to mention in my previous response that when ice is made and drops into the storage bucket it makes a fair amount of noise. After a short while it just became another household noise that we barely notice. Guests will exclaim, "what was that?" but we just pretend we don't know what they are talking about. Try to make them think they are having an auditory hallucination! Even with the noisy ice dropping, we still like the ice and water in the door.

Thank you all for your feedback. Craftlady, we drink tons of water (I have four kids!) so having the water on the door is preferable but I just wish we didn't have to have the ice dispenser on the door also - that is a PITA. With our current fridge, they are always spilling ice all over the floor as it shoots out. I'd rather do w/o that feature. I hope you like yours - I agree that the ice on the door seems to be the biggest problem with any fridge. Newcastle, I'm glad to hear that you really like yours and that you've had it for a while. It's rare to hear positive feedback from someone who is actually happy with their product. A friend of mine responded to my question on facebook and said explicitly not to get a Samsung as they were getting a refund after having it only four months. UGH. But I understand that any model is going to have its lemons so I was looking for someone who is actually happy with their purchase. I'm glad that yours has not caused you any problems! Wizardmom, did you get the one that has the refrigerated drawer? I thought that was particularly cool, especially since I have four kids who are constantly going into the fridge for snacks. I also make a lot of sandwiches, so in the mornings when making their lunches, it would be nice to just pull out that separate drawer and have everything right there. Dh wasn't as enamored with that option and preferred the other model with the touch tone screen, but that just seems like one more complicated feature that could easily break. I don't really need a fridge that can have a photo slideshow! I hope your new fridge!
