Ikea Refrigerator coffee maker leaking
If your Ikea refrigerator coffee maker is leaking or you have refrigerator leaking water from the dispenser, the most likely cause is a faulty control board assembly that keeps voltage on the water inlet or dispense valve so the coffee maker overfills. After checking the board for burned components, inspect the tube or hose behind the dispenser for cracks or holes, since a split hose will leak fast. Next check the K-Cup pins and piercing mechanism; a pod that is not pierced or clogged pins will let water run out instead of through the cup and can usually be cleared with a paper clip. Less commonly a damaged door assembly or a cracked coffee container will let water escape. Confirm the valve is operating normally and rule out physical leaks in hoses or the container before replacing control electronics.

03 - Ikea 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.
