How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit and close the water supply valve immediately to prevent damage.

Steps:

  • 1. Inspect external connections: Check the connection between the household water line and the ice maker inlet valve. Tighten compression fittings and replace damaged tubing.
  • 2. Check drain hose: Ensure the drain hose is properly connected, not cracked, and routed with a continuous downward slope.
  • 3. Open cabinet: Remove lower panels and look for active drips while briefly turning on the water supply. Identify the exact source (hose, reservoir, pump).
  • 4. Replace damaged parts: Install new hoses, clamps, or reservoir as needed. Do not use tape as a permanent pressure repair.
