Kenmore Coldspot side by side model 106-52542101. We have water dripping out water spout. It isn't all the time, so we keep a glass under spout to catch it when it does. When it does leak, it will overflow the glass and go all over the floor. We have tried pulling back on dispenser after getting a glass of water and this sometimes stops the leak. It wasn't doing it for a while. We recently changed the water filter thinking it might be dirt in the line, but it still does it sporadically

Hi I dont have the knowledge of your fridge, but I'm just going to throw this idea your way , please forgive me if im wrong :)

Perhaps the problem is due to syphonage, the discharged liquids are creating a vacuum along the line.

Did you reposition the height of any supply hoses ? none of them should be above/higher the outlet source itself.

You could also try installing a inline reverse flow suppressor
(small plastic filter that only allows one-way direction of flow.

Water dispensers don't work like a faucet. When depressed a circuit is made electrically to the water valve in the bottom back of the machine. Water is, if working normally, either 100% on or 100% off.
If you ask for water, and the supply is normal, but fails to stop except for dribble, then the dual valve in the back of the machine is not sealing properly, and a new valve will have to be fitted.

Hello,

Ice makers and water dispensers are convenient to have on your refrigerator, but can also cause a lot of aggravation if they are not functioning properly.

If your water valves are not defective and you are still experiencing water or ice delays, you may have a clog in your refrigerator hose line.
Instructions and material needed to fix it up.

• Towel,Flathead screwdriver,New water hose

1. Turn off the water supply to the refrigerator and place a towel under the line to soak up any residual water that leaks from the hose when you remove it. Unplug the refrigerator.
   
2. Disconnect the hose from the back of the refrigerator by pushing in on the collar while pulling the water tube out. If you have a model with an ice and water dispenser, you will need to disassemble the dispenser on the front of the freezer in order to completely remove the water hose.
   
3. Remove the water drip tray from beneath the ice/water dispenser and locate the screws at the bottom of the cover (if any). Remove screws and pop off the panel that houses the dispenser. If the unit does not have screws, you will need to pry the cover off with a flat-nosed screwdriver.
   
4. Once the cover is removed, you should be able to see the screws that hold the dispenser unit in place. Remove these screws and reposition the unit so you can free the water hose, by pulling it through the dispenser.
   
5. Thread the new water line through the freezer door and reassemble dispenser unit. Push the new water hose into the fitting on the back panel, making sure it is properly seated. Turn on water supply and check for any leaks before moving the refrigerator unit back against the wall.

Hello,

Due to the blocked drain it sounds to me as if the vents in the ceiling of the refrig. has frozen over so no air can be circulated from the freezer into the refrig. section. This tip i wrote will show ya how to clear the drain and addation to clearing the drain the ice build up would need to be removed from the vents. Here is that tip, http://www1.fixya.com/support/r9945686-check_when_refrig_cools_ok_but_leaks
