Ice maker is leaking water onto the floor

Safety first: Immediately unplug the unit and shut off the water supply to prevent further leakage and electrical hazards. Mop up standing water to avoid slips.

• Step 1 – Inspect rear connections: Pull the unit out and check the supply line connection at the back of the ice maker for drips. Tighten compression fittings gently; do not overtighten.
• Step 2 – Examine water lines: Look for cracks or pinholes in plastic or copper tubing from the inlet valve to the reservoir. Replace any damaged lines.
• Step 3 – Check inlet valve body: Inspect the valve for leaks at seams or around the solenoid. If the body is cracked or seeping, replace the valve.
• Step 4 – Verify drain system: Ensure the drain hose is not blocked and that the drain connection is secure. Clear any clogs and confirm proper slope.

After repairs, restore water and power, then monitor closely for leaks during several cycles.
