Solved. With compressor running for at least five minutes the water dispenser WORKS !!!
Key to this was jayeff's suggestion to measure the voltage at the solenoid with compressor off and then on. To do this, shut off fridge on front control panel, disconnect the wiring plug from solenoid, (you can tell which water line is dispenser if you trace), press the water dispenser and measure. Then engage compressor, set the freezer temp lower and retest.
Wish I had joined and asked before I defaulted to assuming solenoid was faulty (solenoid was two thirds of the cost of control board).
Attached is a picture from the old board. Can't be sure this is issue. Guess I missed when I inspected with board in fridge.
