Possible Causes

Clogged internal drain channel, Blocked drain hose, Misrouted drain hose causing backflow, Ice buildup around drain opening

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the ice maker before working inside the bin area.

  • Clear ice around drain: Remove the ice bin and inspect the drain opening at the bottom. Melt any ice blocking the drain using warm (not boiling) water.
  • Flush drain channel: Pour warm water mixed with a little mild detergent down the drain to dissolve grease or scale. Follow with clean water.
  • Check drain hose routing: Ensure the drain hose slopes continuously downward to the drain point and is not kinked or looped.
  • Clean drain hose: Disconnect the hose at the rear and flush it thoroughly. Replace if heavily scaled or collapsed.
