Model 106.53359300. Filtered water dispenser on door will not shut off. Water continues to run after glass is pulled away. Is this a problem with a valve of some sort? We'd like to fix ourselves if possible...
It can be a defective=> W10408180 Water Inlet Valve
or the problem can be a defective=> 2162361 Micro Switch
2162361 Micro Switch Can you unplug the wires going to the W10408180 Water Inlet Valve? I am here to help you solve this problem if you like. If the wires going to the W10408180 Water Inlet Valve are disconnected and the water continues to flow the problem is most likely the W10408180 Water Inlet Valve being mechanically stuck open The 2162361 Micro Switch can be tested after we prove that the=> W10408180 Water Inlet Valve is not stuck open. I am here if you need me, Thanks Sea Breeze

It is probably your defrost cycle causing this. Obviously if you shut the water line off then it is not coming from there so there is only 1 other place it could be. Every 8, 10, or 12 hours depending on you defrost timer the refrigerator will defrost itself.......the frost melts into water and drains into a pan under the fridge. If the drain is plugged then it will just run into the refrigerator. If you have a freezer on top model then just remove the back wall inside the freezer, it will be a few 1/4 inch screws....If you have an icemaker then remove that too, it will be held on with 3 screws. Just look behind that wall and you will probably see ice at the bottom.....defrost the ice and pour a cup or 2 of water into the drain to make sure it is unclogged. If it is still plugged up then you have to find the clog....either in the back of the fridge behind the lower cover or in the refrig compartment near the back of the roof.

the ice maker unit prob' bad and if you sure it is on and the flag is not stoping it from runing you might need a new unit but there are other tests you can do before..

Have you tried adjusting the freezer temperature to a higher level? This worked for my Kenmore. It will take a couple of days to quit leaking.
