RCA ice maker leaks water onto the counter or floor.

Safety first: Unplug the unit and wipe up any spilled water to prevent slipping or electrical hazards.

• Step 1 – Check reservoir: Remove and inspect the water reservoir for cracks or damage. Fill it over a sink to see if it leaks.
• Step 2 – Verify drain plug: Ensure the bottom drain plug or cap is fully seated and the gasket is intact. Replace the gasket if it is brittle or torn.
• Step 3 – Inspect internal hoses: Remove the rear or bottom panel and look for loose clamps or cracked vinyl hoses between the reservoir, pump, and evaporator tray. Tighten clamps and replace damaged hoses.
• Step 4 – Avoid overfilling: Only fill the reservoir to the MAX line. Overfilling can cause water to spill into areas not designed to hold it.
• Step 5 – Test for leaks: Reassemble, fill with water, and observe the unit during operation to confirm the leak is resolved.
