I have a 2 yr. old side-by-side Performa fridge by Maytag. Recently the water in the door has been shutting itself off automatically after only dispensing a few ounces of water. Then it takes a while before it will dispense any water at all and then only a small amount again, depending on how long I wait. It's not a clogged filter because I've been operating it without a filter because the original filter clogged up in about 4 months after I first bought and hookd up the fridge. My water quality is very poor where I live. Is there a solenoid or water valve that could be clogged? The icemaker in the door works fine.

If the icemaker is working you could be having problems with the mirco switch in the door... with is at the water paddle when you press it in...
