Hot worked but no cold water came out, unplugged then it leaked
Model 87330, the hot side worked fine but no water came out of the cold. We assumed it was frozen up (has happened before) so we unplugged it, and ALL THE WATER LEAKED OUT!! now we are afraid to put another jug in. Is it beyond help?

Hi,
Turn the system of unplug and turn the machine upside down without the water bottle. There should be 2 drain plugs underneath. Remove one at a time and force water or air backwards through these drains to ensure no obstacle in pipes. Also check inside that no pipes are bent closed so as to block water from flowing through. It doesn't work via a pump but a simple gravity feed system. Also the cooling works different to a normal fridge, doesn't have gas in it it cools by a heating element that cools on the one side and heats on the other side. Also check that your fan on the cooling side is still running properly,it should turn of after a couple minutes and turn on when the water gets hot again.
On Few Occasions, it could be a Faulty Thermostat.
Let me know, if needed further assistance.
Hope i helped you.
