Leaking Water: symptoms, causes and diagnosis

A leaking LG fridge is usually a blocked defrost drain — a quick, affordable fix — but we always rule out a water-line leak first.

Symptoms
  • Water pooling under the fridge
  • Water dripping inside the fridge
  • Wet floor in front of the unit
  • Ice build-up then melt
  • Mould near the base
Common causes
  • Blocked defrost drain
  • Cracked water line or filter
  • Leaking door gasket
  • Clogged drain pan
  • Ice maker supply line leaking
How we diagnose it
  • Clear and flush the defrost drain
  • Inspect all water lines and joints
  • Test the door gasket seal
  • Check the drain pan and tray
  • Pressure-test the water supply
