    If comfortable with electric, insert volt meter into each plug, press the "water button", see which has voltage. Depending on how wired/switched, reversing plugs may cause reverse actions, (water button produces ice/ ice button produces water).
    I would use a volt meter.

    Just plug them in. If water comes out ice maker when you try to get water out of the dispenser, you have the backwards. Switch them. If water comes out dispenser, you are done.
