GE Whirlpool 21TFA, In then past weeks, water has appeared on the top glass shelf. I have removed the water pitcher. There is no ice maker. It is too much water for condensation. if this water doesn't refreezes, it becomes ice. Usually, it takes two full bath towels to dry of the glass shelf.

SOURCE: Ice cubes made by ice maker become large fused chunks over time.

Ice cubes will deteriorate over time if not used. They shrink due to defrosting of the freezer and will become stale.
Once the ice bin is full, turn the ice maker off until you use the cubes and or dump the cubes every 3 or 4 days and start over.

SOURCE: Water accumulating in top shelf of refrigerator

I solved this by emptying everything in the freezer and taking out the floor of the freezer (2 screws - simple) and finding the drain hole covered in ice. I used a blow dryer to melt the ice. Then I used a turkey baster to place boiling water into the drain hole, waiting 30 seconds, using the baster again to remove the cooled water and reapeating this until the ice in the drain tube melted. You can tell when the ice in the drain tube melts completely as you can hear the water falling into the pan in the bottom of the unit (under freezer and refrigerator).

you either have a bad water valve, which it is sticking open or B. the ice maker is not shutting the valve off.

SOURCE: ice maker flooded top freezer compartment

It may be just the water control valve on back of refrigerator. Put tap water in ice maker and lower lever for on. After ice is made, does it drop to tray? At this time when empty is the time the control valve is asked for water. The problem could be in valve on back or the inside ice maker itself. If you can try a few test with me I will help you locate the problem. Let me know what you find as I go through this with you. Sea Breeze

SOURCE: Water is leaking into top shelf of Refrigerator - Whirlpool Gold

the drain in the freezer is clog make sure the drain from the freezer is clean all the way to the pan next to the compressor . you need to open the back wall of your freezer for that ( the inside wall) clean with buster (water pump)the drain is in the bottom middle of the freeze.
