Ice Maker Leaking
Turned on my ice machine for the first time in several months, and it
is leaking water out the back. It is visible inside the small stepwell
door in the carpet. Previously the ice maker worked perfectly.

Suggestions?

Ice Maker Leaking
Hey Scott, I would strongly suggest you find the leak! That "switch
box" is very expensive. I have had my ice machine out several times
(sheesh) The U-line ice machine takes water in through the front of the
machine, the water line runs up through the floor and under the machine
to the front, actually to the water pump.

Take the front grill off (one screw) and see if that area is wet. Maybe
it is a simple washer in the line that needs replacing. It could be
leaking and the angle of the coach may cause the water to run to that
side of the coach. If this is the case replace the washer, be carefull
the fill hose connects to the water pump, the pump housing is plastic,
be careful removing the hose you do not want to crack the pump housing.
There is a small hose that runs from the front of the machine into
the "fill" on the ice mold. I can not believe this is your problem
because it is a single hose that runs from the pump to the fill. If you
need to take the machine out it is fairly simple, unplug the machine
from inside the tranfer switch compartment, along the side of the
machine there is 6-8 screws holding the machine in place. My guess is
that the washer is leaking. If not let us know, the ice machine and U-
line and I have a "working relationship"! The ice machine is one of the
few requirements my sweetie has...so you know the rest. :>)

Hi Scott,
Had the same thing happen to mine (90SP36). Remove the small
cover at the bottom of the ice maker (visible with the door open) and
check that the hose fitting on the incoming supply line is tight.

Most likely either the hose washer (where supply is attached), or
the fill valve is cracked (fairly cheap part from most appliance
repair shops).
