How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the ice maker and close the water supply valve.
- Observe fill cycle: Restore power and watch a full cycle. If water continues to flow after the normal fill time, the inlet valve may be sticking open.
- Replace inlet valve: If the valve drips or does not close fully when de‑energized, replace the Hoover water inlet valve.
- Check level sensor: Inspect and clean the float or electronic level sensor. Ensure it moves freely and is not coated with scale.
- Verify drain: Make sure the reservoir drains correctly between cycles. Clear any blockages in the drain channel.
