    Same problem...don't know how to fix...looks like water is leaking down back into freezer & freezing at the bottom.

  • cpgen13 Apr 13, 2008

    I have a bottom freezer Kenmore fridge; it is leaking water in the rear right side of the unit. There is no icemaker and no drip tray in the underside of the product. The water leak is not constant and the fridge is making very loud knocking/banging noises.

    This product is only three years old; it was purchased in 2005. I am wondering is there are any recalls for this leaking issue, there are many listed on the Internet. My previous fridge was almost twenty years old when we bought this one and let Sears take the old one away.

Your drain line is frozen and not allowing the defrost water to drain to the pan below. The drain hole is at the bottom of the evaporator coil in the freezer behind the metal rear panel. You may need to remove the panel to access it. You can use hot water to thaw it out and you should be in good shape.

I have a model 106 kenmore refrigerator with an ice maker. The ice maker has worked for 20 plus years and just quit working. Is there anything I can troubleshoot to see if I can get it working again.
Good day,
If the freezer section is at it's normal temperature (cannot be above 10 degrees) then follow these steps. It. will get you there.

First step is to take a small paper cup of water and fill the cavity until it is near full. With the ice maker turned on, close freezer door and wait 3 hours to see if it harvests. If not, the ice maker is bad, and must be replaced. If the cubes harvest then.......
Three possibilities.
1. The water supply from the house is not delivering water to the water valve. Shut off the house at the meter, disconnect the line going to the water valve, and with the line pointed into a bucket, have someone turn the valve back on for a 15 second count. The water should come out smartly. If not, the line and it's fittings will have to be replaced.
2. The fill tube from the back of the machine that feeds water into the back of the ice maker is frozen up. You will have to remove the ice maker to visually inspect that tube. If blocked, it needs to be defrosted, but use caution. Too much heat too fast will start to melt plastic and vinyl parts you don't want melted.
If this is the case, then once cleaned out, you will have to change the water valve located in the back bottom rear of the machine because it is leaking during the off cycle.
3. If everything checks O.K. up to this point, you will have to purchase and install a new water valve, and install it.

P.S. Under very rare occasions the electric circuity in the ice maker will fail to send a signal to the water valve. Although rare, it can happen, in which case the best option is to replace the ice maker and water valve.

The water feed to the ice maker is frozen - I can see that it is plugged with frozen water. I was able to get the frozen water out of the chute that leads to the ice maker but I can still see the ice...
Hi,

This usually means the water inlet valve that feeds the ice maker is bad. It can bypass a small amount of water and that water runs so slow that it freezes in the tube you are clearing.

The valve I am talking about is behind the frig on the bottom, it should be blue in color.

To clear the ice from the tube use hot water and a turkey baster, or a hair dryer.

The part number for the water valve is 4389177

My Kenmore refrigerators (model #79177990) ice
Ice inlet tube may be frozen up inside of Fridge. Thaw it out with a hair blower. Shut of water supply and disconnect the water line that goes into the back. Use a flexable item at the connection to see if will go all the way through to the icemaker. I used a zip tie.

If you still don't have water going to the icemaker, you may need to replace the "Water Inlet Valve" at bottom back right of your Fridge. Easy to Do.

ICE CUBE MAKER SMELLY ICE CUBES
your model will have a filter for it. it is located usually on the fridge side torwarss the top back of the fridge. it sounds like you need to replace the filter. it needs to be replaced every 4 monthes or so to keep the water clean. also you may put some water in a cup from the tap/faucet and make sure it is not the water it's self. if it is you may want to think about also having a water filtration system installed in your home.

Ice maker will not make ice
Water fill tube above I/M is probably frozen up. Remove I/M and see. If so, use spray bottle to melt out ice. Unplug and replug in ref when done to reset ice level sensor or it still won't work. If no ice blockage then I/M is bad and needs replacing.

We have a HotPoint fridge and around 1:30 in the morning we heard a large crash, sounded like ice falling in the freezer. When we opened the fridge the top shelf had completely shattered and all of the food fell to the next shelf. It was a huge mess. I had to take the fridge completely apart and clean it all out to get all of the glass out and I'm still worried that I didn't get it all.
