How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Turn off the water supply and disconnect power. Be prepared for water spillage when loosening fittings.
- Check supply fittings: Inspect the connection between the household water line and the ice maker inlet valve. Tighten compression fittings gently; do not overtighten.
- Inspect tubing: Look for cracks or pinholes in the copper or braided water line. Replace damaged tubing.
- Drain hose: Ensure the drain hose is firmly attached to the pump or gravity drain outlet and is not split.
- Valve body: If water appears to seep from the body of the water inlet valve, replace the valve assembly.
