2022 Micro Minnie FLX water leaks

[dms7479]

Learned the hard way about how easy these fittings come loose. Was getting into the little pull-down door on the floor and discovered my bag of manuals was soaked.

Pulled out everything under the sink and it was wet and moldy so had to replace the flimsy bottom.

There was no teflon on the fittings so will be going through and checking all my connections. Hopefully this will fix the problem.

The fittings rattle loose very easy, this was the second time it happened and just tightening them didn't work.

... don't know exactly what your dealing with. I'm guessing your dealing with a compression fitting, if it was PEX, you couldn't tighten it. Compression fittings make an excellent seal without much tightening when equipped with cone washers. Cone washers are available at any hardware store.

I don't think you are at this point, but if I have a problem connection I replace the line with braided nylon hose and secure it with hose clamps. It's inexpensive and lasts for years.
