Bosch Refrigerator coffee maker leaking

If your Bosch refrigerator coffee maker is leaking from the dispenser or dripping onto the drip tray, start by checking the tube or hose behind the dispenser — a cracked or pinholed hose is the most common culprit. Next suspect the control board or control board assembly, which can keep the water valve energized and overfill the coffee maker; look for burned components or a valve that stays open. Also check the K-Cup pins and pod seating — a pod that is not pierced or clogged pins will let water run out instead of through the pod. Less commonly, inspect the door assembly for damage that could misdirect water, and finally examine the coffee container for cracks. You can test the valve and clean the pins with a paper clip, and replace any damaged hose, valve or control board if inspection shows failure. Enter your refrigerator model number on RepairClinic.com to find the exact replacement hose, valve, control board or container part that fits your unit and get step-by-step repair help.

03 - Bosch 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.

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 inlet valve is functioning normally before considering a control board replacement.
