There are many reasons for this happening for example water leaking from a water supply line for the dispenser or ice maker, a crack in the defrost pan, water leaking inside and draining through the refrigerator cabinet, but most are cased by a defrost drain line blockage.

- HOW TO FIX A LEAKING REFRIGERATOR OR FREEZER If you have more questions or need help feel free to let me know, Thanks, Sea Breeze SEA BREEZE TIP's Your evaporator coils frost up in normal use and every eight hours or so the entire unit shuts down and the defrost heater comes on to melt the frost. This cycle last about 20 minutes. The melted frost drips into a drain pan and through a drain tube to the drain tray under the freezer/refrigerator where it's evaporated by the condenser fan. Your drain tubemay be stopped up with ice at the upper end because it drains too slowly because it's stopped up at the lower end in the evaporator pan under the unit at the floor. It can get dust and mold in it. Once you get the ice out at the top a little pressure with a turkey basterwill usually clear it out. Or use a wet and dry vacuum cleaner. Flushing it out with hot water and Clorox may help. Make sure it drains quick enough to prevent refreezing. . The drain should be located below the evaporator coils on the lower back of the freezer. If you have more questions or need help feel free to let me know, Thanks, Sea Breeze appliancepartsse@yahoo.com

Hello, I have a GSS22JEPCC. It is 3 years old. The refrigerator is not cooling and freezer is not very cold either. I know that the refrigerator side is not working. I took off the back vent panel, there was dust on the fan which I vacuumed, but there was no ice, nothing was frozen. I touched the copper coils and they were cold. Any suggestions. Giovanni

The red light on my water dispenser went off along with the beeping alert. I got a new water filter and followed the installation instructions - let the water run for 3 minutes before pressing the reset button. The beeping and the red light continues.
