Swipe to explore all four problems
Water leaking inside or onto the floor
A blocked defrost drain, loose water connection, damaged inlet valve, or ice buildup can send water into the fresh-food compartment or onto the floor.
Ice maker not producing ice
The fill tube, inlet valve, temperature, wiring, and ice-maker assembly are common checkpoints. The exact cause depends on where the cycle stops.
Runs constantly or feels unusually warm
Dirty condenser coils, poor ventilation, a worn door gasket, or a fan problem may make the unit work longer than expected.
