Check the bin and the floor in front of the unit for standing water. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Why does my outdoor U-Line ice maker show 11? The control saw the water in the tray or reservoir rise too high. A slow drain or a fill valve that does not close fully are the usual suspects. ### Should I shut off the water when a U-Line shows 11? If you see water in the bin or on the floor, yes. That stops the overfill while the drain and valve are checked. ### Can a kinked drain hose cause 11 on a U-Line? Yes. U-Line's own troubleshooting points to restricted drain hoses and debris at the bin drain when water stands where it should not. --- **[Read on the site: U-Line E11 (shown as 11): water level too high](https://icemakerrepair.center/error-codes/u-line-e11/)** **[Book a visit with IceMakerRepair.center](https://icemakerrepair.center/schedule/)**
