Amana Refrigerator coffee maker leaking
If your refrigerator coffee maker is leaking, start by checking the coffee container for cracks or holes — a damaged container is often the culprit. Next inspect the tube or hose that runs to the dispenser for splits or pinholes, especially if the leak shows up behind the dispenser. A stuck water inlet valve caused by a faulty control board or control board assembly can also leave the valve open and overfill the brewer, so look for signs of burned or shorted components and confirm the valve itself is closing before you replace boards. Don’t forget simple causes: a K-Cup that isn’t pierced or clogged brew pins can let water spill out, and a damaged door assembly can sometimes contribute to leaks. These checks will narrow down why the refrigerator coffee maker is leaking and whether you need a new container, hose, valve, or control board.

03 - Amana Refrigerator Control Board Assembly
If the refrigerator coffee maker is leaking, it's possible the coffee maker is dispensing too much water. This can be caused by a defective control board assembly continuing to allow voltage to be sent to the water dispensing valve, keeping the valve open. You can inspect the board assembly for signs of burning or a shorted-out component. You should first confirm there are no cracks or holes in the coffee maker container or hoses connected to the dispenser, as well as determine the dispensing valve is functioning normally before considering a control board assembly replacement.
Highly Likely
04 - K-Cup pod Is not pierced or pin is clogged
If the K-Cup pod is not pushed down firmly, the lower pin may not pierce through the pod. If the pins are clogged or not piercing all the way through the K-Cup, water may leak from the coffee maker. If the upper or lower pins are clogged, they can be cleaned with a paper clip.
Common
05 - Amana Refrigerator Control Board
