    How to connect a refrigerator water line
    I Have a Bosch KAD62V70AU fridge and trying to conct to the water line. Went to bunnings to get a connector and the bosch hose line is not the same size as the water line that the plumber out in. They sold me a plastic connector thingy.

    Have put it all together now, but the connection drips now.

    Any ideas on what I have done wrong and how to fix it?
