Possible Causes
Stuck water inlet valve, Faulty water level sensor, Control board not shutting off fill signal, Restricted drain causing backup
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit and turn off water supply if plumbed.
Steps to correct overfilling:
- Inspect valve: Check the water inlet valve for signs of sticking or leaking when de-energized. Replace if it drips continuously.
- Clean level sensor: Clean the water level sensor or float to ensure it moves freely and is not coated with scale.
- Check drain: Ensure the internal drain path from the tray is clear so excess water can return to the reservoir.
- Control board: If the valve is good but remains energized too long, the main control board may be faulty and require replacement.
