Ice maker leaking water onto the floor from underneath

Safety: Immediately unplug the unit and shut off the water supply to prevent damage and electrical shock.

• Inspect supply line: Check the copper or braided line from the shutoff valve to the ice maker for drips, cracks, or loose fittings. Tighten or replace as needed.
• Check inlet valve: Look at the KitchenAid water inlet valve for signs of leakage around the body or fittings. Replace if leaking.
• Examine drain hose: Follow the drain hose from the sump to the household drain. Replace if brittle, cracked, or leaking at joints.
• Verify float operation: Ensure the reservoir float moves freely and shuts off water at the correct level. Clean or replace a stuck float.
• Dry and test: After repairs, dry the area, restore water and power, and monitor for leaks during a full cycle.
