Re: Water Leak at Ice Maker

We have the same year and model coach as you do. Unfortunately, we have had some bad experiences with the fridge ice maker valve plumbing (blue gizmo) on the back of the fridge. If memory serves me right we experienced three floods from that hose. First: I disconnected the ice maker plumbing when I winterized the rig. The next spring when we de-winterized the rig I connected the brass nuts on the fill valve but didn't check to make sure there were no leaks. Uh oh, woke up one morning and pulled open a drawer under the fridge and it was full of water. That can't be good. Second: the small 1/4" clear tubing behind the fridge that supplies water to the fill valve decided to crack. Not a flood but enough water to half fill up a drawer. Cut out the cracked pipe and spliced in a new piece of tubing. Used brass compression connector. Kept checking the connection a couple times a day for about a week. No leaks, yea, quit checking. Third: About a month after I quit checking the brass connector fitting decided to leak. Another drawer full of water. 
Removed my spliced tubing and connected a new piece with a sharkbite connector. This finally solved the problem. I'll never go back to brass compression fittings if there is a sharkbite available. More expensive, but so much easier to install. There is a black handle valve on top of the drinking water filter under the galley sink. Turn it 90 degrees. It's there to stop the water to the filter for replacement. Filter supplies water to the drinking water faucet and ice maker. Cheap plastic tubing with compression fittings is a good reason to always use a water pressure valve to keep high pressure water out of your rig's plumbing. One final thought. We carry a small shop vac. It really came in handy in cleaning up the mess.
