How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the ice maker and shut off the water supply immediately.

  • Pull unit out: Carefully slide the Asko ice maker away from the wall to inspect the rear and underside.
  • Check inlet connection: Tighten the compression nut or threaded fitting where the household water line connects to the unit. Do not overtighten plastic fittings.
  • Inspect hoses: Look for drips from internal hoses and clamps. Replace any cracked hoses and secure clamps firmly.
  • Check drain hose: Ensure the drain hose is properly attached and not split or pulled loose.
  • Dry base pan: Remove any standing water from the base pan and monitor for new leaks after restoring water.
