Samsung Refrigerator coffee maker leaking
If your Samsung refrigerator coffee maker is leaking, the usual culprits are easy to check and fix. Start by inspecting the tubing or hose behind the dispenser for cracks or holes, since a damaged hose is the most commonly listed cause. Next, look over the door assembly for visible damage that could allow water to run where it should not. A faulty control board assembly can also keep voltage on the water valve and let the coffee maker overfill, so check the board for burn marks or shorts after ruling out simple leaks. Less likely but still common are issues with the K-Cup not being pierced or a clogged piercing pin, which lets water escape instead of passing through the pod. The control board itself can behave similarly, and finally inspect the coffee container for cracks or holes. If you need replacement parts, enter your model number at RepairClinic.com to find the exact hose, valve, control board, container, or dispenser parts that fit your fridge and stop the refrigerator leaking water.

Top Solution
03 - Samsung 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 - Samsung Refrigerator Control Board
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 continuing to allow voltage to be sent to the water inlet valve, keeping the valve open. You can inspect the control board 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 inlet valve is functioning normally before considering a control board replacement.
Common
06 - Samsung Refrigerator Container
The most likely cause of a refrigerator coffee maker leaking is a damaged container. Inspect the coffee maker container for any cracks or holes and replace if required.
