My freezer leaks, I found ice buildup under the lower freezer basket. I disconnected the water line to the ice maker and no more leak or ice buildup. Is there a common leak in the ice maker?
For model number RS261MDRS
PartSelect logo
Hello William, Thank you for the question. If there is no damage or cracks in the Ice Maker that would allow water to leak, it could be over filling or the Water Supply Line is not lined up correctly or cracked. We suggest removing the Ice maker to check for damage and check the Water line. We hope this helps!

We misplaced the mounting screws for our handles while moving.
It was easy! I just used an alan wrench to losen the side bolt, then slid the handle into the new mounting screws that I had hand-screwed and then tightened it all up.

Ice tray had cracked and broken. The water is still not filling up my ice tray.
The replacement was fairly simple. I removed the existing tray and detached the water line. Once the water line water reattached to the new tray I inserted into the ice maker.

*** The problem I'm having now is the water is not filling up the tray***
Not sure what I did wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
