When it rains...it pours...
All the problems with aquahot and water pump stuff now this....
Seems I probably am going to have to spend big coach bucks on the Aqua hot to cure my mistake in trying to be proactive and sanitize and clean the lines and got a big "glob" of sediment that seems to be stuck in the coils
NOW I have noticed a leak at the base of the fridge. The fridge has not been on all winter (6months) and the ice make is disconnected
It is dripping a t the base... I don't think there are water lines that run under the fridge and feeling the roof of the cabinet below the fridge which holds the vacuum, it is dry. Where is the water drips coming from??????
We had the same leak. I could not trace it without removing the fridge. I removed the ice maker and shut off the water supply to it. No more leak.
I will pull the fridge out and fix it someday.
There should be a valve already in place to positively shut off water supply to ice maker. If not, you need to install one. Find out where the ice maker water supply originates and look for a small valve.
On our older model coach the supply line comes off the under-counter water filter assembly below the kitchen sink.
You have an under the sink water filter that feeds the icemaker and the little spout on the sink, that's all. On the top of this filter is a handle which is a shutoff valve. If you lift up on the handle all the way, the water source for these 2 items is stopped. That will tell you if the line to the icemaker is leaking. There is no other shutoff valve, or one needed.
It is not uncommon for the line up the back of the refrigerator to the ice maker to crystalize and fail. It can also pull out of the ice maker enough that water runs out instead of into the ice mold.
I have the same problem just appear on mine. Ice maker stopped making ice then I noticed the very slow drip and a wet floor. Turned off the ice maker and the drip stopped. I need to find where I can isolate the water supply until I replace the fridge with a Magic Chef 10.1
This happened on mine. I was able to pop off the panel outside behind the fridge and see the leak in action. Fixed it like Twig suggests.
Right then... will check under the sink!
The connection to the solenoid on the back of the fridge is hose thread. I suggest you take it off and put a water hose plug in it. Then the water to the faucet will still work.
Like others, I went through this recently. Mine was leaking from the solenoid valve on the outside access panel behind the fridge, where the hose adapter attaches to. It was loose so I temporarily tightened it the. Ordered some good hose gaskets, swapped one in and tightened. The other place was from the ice maker feed line under the sink. I turned the valve off , which disabled my water filter. I need to get another valve to put in that will allow me to keep the ice maker line closed but use the filtered water.
Good luck, take it slow and report back.
So I still have the leak. Attached are picture showing a water shut off valve. Is this valve to be turned clockwise to shut off water to the ice maker? This is the only valve I see under the sink. The othe pic is of the filter are which I do not have a filter on, just the plug
When I left the water off it stopped leaking. Dealing with another issue of no hot water, I turned on the kitchen sink and it started dripping again. I have not ever touched the valve nor the filter are before and it did not leak. Hmmmm...

Righty righty, lefty loosy.
My guess is I did explain it exactly. Is this the valve that turns on the ice maker? Do I close it to stop water from going to the ice maker or will this shut off the supply to the sink?
This is the water inlet line to the fridge(ice maker???) if I disconnect this am I good to go??

Dick-
The small line on the left side of your photo here goes to the ice maker Turn this off, right tighty. https://www.foreforums.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=44469.0;attach=121362;image
Under the sink, I have a filter on mine so if water leaks here, you need a filter. https://www.foreforums.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=44469.0;attach=121360;image
I had a leak at the hose attachment in your photo - https://www.foreforums.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=44469.0;attach=121368;image Try to tighten it, or ideally, get a new rubber gasket and put it in. If it still leaks, the plastic valve (blue piece) may be cracked. But if you turn the valve off under the sink, no water should reach this piece.
