What Internal Water Leak Detected
actually means.
Champion 7 and 15 dispensers carry water sensors on the chassis floor. When water reaches them, the screen shows Internal Water Leak Detected and the unit stops until it is reset. Follett's checks start at the incoming water connection at the back and at an internal filter that may not be seated.

What to do when Internal Water Leak Detected shows on the ice machineKind of codeWater supply
The water side came up short: the trough did not fill in the time allowed, the float or level probe never saw water, or water kept flowing when the inlet valve should have closed. A supply valve left partly shut, a clogged filter cartridge, low building pressure or a sticking inlet valve are the usual causes. Opening the valve fully and fitting a fresh filter clears the simple cases; a valve that hums without passing water is a visit.

A booking with a code goes further when it carries the light or code copied as it appeared, the model and serial off the data plate, and a word on whether cubes still fall into the bin. With those three in hand, our office can match the probable part to your machine the same afternoon.
