Possible Causes
Loose water inlet hose connection, Cracked internal water line, Leaking Grundig water inlet valve body, Blocked drain causing overflow
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit and turn off the water supply immediately to prevent damage and electrical hazards.
Steps to check:
- Inspect rear connections: Pull the ice maker away from the wall and check the inlet hose connection at the back. Tighten the nut gently; do not overtighten plastic fittings.
- Check valve body: Look for water seeping from the water inlet valve housing. Replace the valve if it is cracked or corroded.
- Examine internal tubing: Remove the lower front or rear panel and trace the water lines. Replace any tubing that shows splits or pinholes.
- Clear drain: Ensure the internal and external drains are not blocked, which can cause water to back up and overflow into the cabinet.
Dry the area thoroughly before restoring power.
