The refrigerator and freezer work fine. The ice maker and water dispenser works are both working. Water is flowing to both. I requested ice and after the ice dispensed, the flap kept opening and closing. I checked for a blockage, there was none. I changed the setting and reqested water, that worked fine but that flap kept opening and closing. I unplugged the unit and gave it a "time out" for 10 minutes, plugged it back in, and the flap started again. I changed the water filter, still flapping. The only way I could stop the flapping was to disconnect the electricity to the door panel (the plug on the top of the unit right above the ice maker by the hinge). I want to fix it, but have no idea where to start.

It sounds like you already have fixed it. But see: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/8010163/GE_Profile_Side_by_Side_refrig.pdf
