The cretins who sold us this appliance refused to provide access to a service manual, an illustrated parts breakdown, or to offer any tips. Reluctantly I purchased the switch, and then Googled the hell out of it.

The black control panel, the water/ice buttons, and the black dispenser port are a complete assembly. There is a single philips head screw holding this assembly in place. Look beneath just next to where the ice comes out and there's the screw. Remove it - don't lose the sucker - it's a special thread! and get ready for the real fun.

Grab the black dispenser port with a strong hand and hold the door from opening with another, or your shoulder. Firmly pull the assembly away from the door. It will take a quick, firm pull to do the deed. The assembly is held in place by several plastic lock tabs. These will give way without breaking.

BE CAREFUL. There's a short length of connecting cable attaching the panel to the refrigerator door assembly. Don't pull so hard that you destroy the connector.

Remove the connector (a single Molex type) from the refrigerator door. It's a latching type, so takes a squeeze to release the latch.

Remove the rigid plastic water dispenser hose from the control panel. Note how it's attached.
