Arctic Air Refrigerator coffee maker leaking

If your refrigerator coffee maker is leaking, start with the simple stuff first and work toward the electronics. The most likely cause is a cracked or split hose or tube at the dispenser, followed closely by a damaged coffee maker container that can let water pool or run out the front. Next check the water inlet and dispensing valve and the control board that powers it, since a stuck valve or a shorted board can keep the valve open and overfill the brewer. Also inspect the K-Cup piercing pins for clogs or failure to pierce the pod, which lets water overflow, and finally glance at the door assembly for any damage that could be misdirecting water. Inspect hoses and the container for visible cracks, test the valve for proper operation, and look at the control board for burned components before replacing parts. If you need replacement parts, enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to find the exact hose, container, valve, or control board that fits your refrigerator.

03 - Arctic Air 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.
