There is a generic type of water filter that fits all Whirlpool and KitchenAid refrigerators with a water filter located in the base grill below the door.
It helps prevent water from freezing and blocking the defrost condensaate drain opening that causes water to flow over into other areas of your refrigerator. But being level will not stop this from happening on some refrigerators because they are simply prone to this problem happening. I will be here should you have other questions, Thanks Sea Breeze
there is a water tube connection at the bottom of door on hinge side that has a spring and allows it to swing with door. it also has a fitting there so the door can be removed.it is the tube running inside the door to the ice water dispenser. if it has one, it can leak at the fiting
For a Whirlpool refrigerator, look for the plaque with the model number inside the fridge on the wall. (Frequently on the right or left side near the top)
Sounds to me you are having a ice blockage and or defrost problem. When that happens water can not get outside of the refrigerator. If you look inside the rear of freezer you may see a frost line or layer building on rear panel. You may just need to begin manual defrost until we can get a look at the evaporator coils and condensate collection tray. Unplug and begin and let me know your model number. I can help if you like, Sea Breeze
We were able to fix the freezer water leak. We unscrewed the false freezer floor and the inside back panel. Ice had accumulated on the freezer floor and the defrosting drain was frozen. We removed the ice by using a blow dryer then poured boiling hot water onto the frozen drain hole. The frozen water in the drain pipe hole eventually melted and the water released into the defrosting drip pan at the bottom of the refrigerator. Problem solved. We no longer have water leaking into the refrigerator.
