Why my refrigerator is leaking water from the top where the water filter is located?

My GE Profile PTS25SHSARSS is leaking water. I notice every time I get water from the water dispenser, water leaks from the top of the refrigerator, next where the water filter is located.

My LG fridge started to leak at the top hinge were the water line runs after I had changed my filter. I took it out and replaced several times to make sure I installed it properly. Still leaked. So I just shut the water dispenser off. That was 1 1/2 years ago. Got looking at it yesterday and was going to buy a new one but for some reason I decide to turn it upside down at the sink and shake all the water out of it. Reinstalled it it VIOLA! NO LEAKS.
So, the only change point was the filter. That had to be the issue. But, I don't no why. I ran about two gallons of wate4 thru it and the water is crystal clear. Since no water has passed thru it it's like brand new. Glad it's working and not leaking but would like to know WHAT was wrong with the filter.

Shut off water supply valve. Relieve water pressure by dispensing water. Unscrew water filter. Examine to see if the gasket is damaged or if filter was loose and just needed tightening. Or simply replace water filter with the correct water filter that your GE refrigerator calls for.

The area above my water filter in my refrigerator is leaking. I doesn't leak until we run the water in the front of the door or the icemaker runs.I have changed the filer and the problem persists. Is there a part above the filter that needs replaced? The model # is GE TFX26ZPDABB. Thanks.

Where are the duel water inlet valves located on ge fridge arctic profile

unless you have a water dispenser, top mount refrigerators usually only have a single inlet water valve. Either way, the valves will be located in the back on the machine and covered by the lower portion cover, but will have a small area for the water line to hook up. Just remove the lower panel in the back and you will be able to see it
