    1. Shut off flow at the valve located in the paper-towel holder. 

    2. Lift bucket out of washer fluid unit recess, and check the hose going into the elbow going into the bucket. Most leaks come from here as the hose needs to be pushed fully into the elbow. Turn on to veryfiy that the leak has stopped. 

    3. If bucket continues to over-fill, pour out contents of bucket into a reservior (5-gal pail or mop bucket). Turn off valve. remove the 2 screws (Phillips "Cross" screwdriver) that secure the float plate located inside the bucket, lift plate with adjustable float out of the bucket. Adjust float to a lower setting (similar to a float in a tolet tank). Tighten wing-nut. Replace float plate and secure with the 2 phillips screws.
