How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the ice maker and close the water supply valve immediately to prevent further leakage.

Inspect for visible leaks: Remove the front kick plate or rear panel and look for standing water in the base pan. Use towels or a wet/dry vacuum to remove water.
Check float switch: Locate the leak detection float or sensor in the base. Ensure it moves freely and is not stuck in the "full" position. Dry the area thoroughly and reset the float.
Trace water path: Examine the water inlet valve, hoses, circulation pump connections, and water trough for drips or mineral tracks. Tighten hose clamps and replace any cracked hoses or troughs.
Test inlet valve: If water continues to seep into the unit when off, the inlet valve may be leaking internally and should be replaced.
Monitor after repair: Restore water and power, then observe a full cycle for any new leaks before closing panels.

E15 error, unit may beep continuously, water detected in base pan or under the machine.
