If your Crosley refrigerator coffee maker won’t brew or the unit won’t draw water, start with the water supply—this is the most common cause. Check that the refrigerator’s water valve is open, the supply line is not kinked, and you are getting cold water at the dispenser; if flow is slow, replace the water filter (replace every six months) since a clogged filter often makes the fridge water dispenser not working. The next most likely problem is a clogged brewing pin: remove the brewing module, rinse it thoroughly, and use a paper clip to clear the upper and lower pin holes so water can pass. Less commonly the brewer is simply not installed correctly; make sure the module rides fully on the rails with the name plate facing you and that it clicks into place before trying to brew again. These quick checks will get you troubleshooting whether you’re experienced or this is your first repair.

After each use the brewing module should be removed and rinsed with water. If the upper or lower pin gets clogged, you can use a paper clip to clean out the holes.
With the brewing module inserted on the rails, the brewer's name plate must be facing the user and must be removed and reinstalled to dispense another cup.
