Ice forms on bottom inside of freezer, leaks out the door which will not close properly when the ice forms. Defrosted, removed all ice but problem returns.
The drain line is clogged go around the back of machine take off back cover and you will see a drain line coming through the floor and at the end of it is a rubber grommet.The rubber grommet is clogged up just take it off and throw it out and then turn off machine for 24 hrs with doors open to melt out all the ice
SOURCE: I have what appears to be a water leak of some
Check to be sure your ICE door chute is closed or closing properly! I have encountered many of these units that have had the flap break off the mounting tabs inside the dispenser opening. If the flap appears to be intact, I would next guess that your ice maker timing is allowing the ice maker to over fill and spill water into the ice bucket.
You can confirm this problem by looking at the ice maker and seeing if the ice cubes in it are filled right up to the center bar that drives the cubes out of the mold.
Let me know if you have any more questions!
Thanks, BOB

hi there,
you may have a kink in the water line leading to the icemaker. the leak is due to warm water entering the icemaker itself. i would also check the water valve in the icemaker itself and ice actuators or paddles to any breakage.

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 tube
may be stopped up with ice at the upper end because it drains too slow
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 baster
will usually clear it out. Flushing it out with hot water and clorox may
help
SOURCE: Ice build up on freezer
The drain in the freezer behind back lower panel
needs opening. You can see it at the bottom of the back panel
underneath the evaporator coils. (The cold coils)
Run Hot water in the drain until it clears or use a hairdryer.
When the defrost melts the water it goes down the drain
If the drain is clogged with Ice or ? The defrost water
overflows into the ref. or freezer or on floor
Run Hot water in the drain until it clears or use a hairdryer.
Also check fan undernearh Ref in the rear
Clean condenser coils underneath
