Possible Causes
Cracked ice tray or mold, Misaligned fill tube spraying water, Overfilling due to sticking inlet valve, Blocked internal drain channel
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power and water supply before inspection.
Steps:
- Inspect tray and bin: Remove the ice bin and examine the tray or plate for cracks or warping.
- Check fill tube: Observe a fill cycle (with panels in place as much as possible) to see if water is directed correctly into the tray.
- Clear drain: If the design includes a drain hole, clear it with a soft brush or pipe cleaner to allow meltwater to escape.
- Valve test: If water drips into the tray when the unit is idle, the inlet valve may be leaking and should be replaced.
