If your Crosley refrigerator coffee maker is leaking, start by checking the coffee container for cracks or holes because a damaged container is the most likely cause of a leak. Next suspect the control board or control board assembly if the unit keeps sending voltage to the water inlet valve and overfills the brewer; look for burned components and verify the valve closes when powered down before replacing the board. Also inspect the dispenser hoses and tubes for cracks or pinholes that can leak behind the dispenser, and make sure K-Cup pins are piercing pods and not clogged, which can let water spill out. A damaged door assembly is less common but worth a quick look for cracks near the dispenser opening. These checks cover the usual reasons a refrigerator is leaking water from the coffee maker or the refrigerator dispenser leaking water.

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.
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.
