This is most likely due to the defrost drain being restricted, here is a link to help explain how to correct the problem. Let me know if this helps. Thanks.

Why is water leaking at the bottom in front refigerators

Water leaking in the freezer and on the floor in the front of your refrigerator usually is caused by a blocked evaporator drain line.

Hotpoint. Water is leaking from behind light bulb

The drain hose in the back of your freezer is frozen shut. The water you see is coming from the defrost cycle. Turn off the refrigerator. Remove the floor from your freezer and remove/thaw all of the ice. Locate the drain in the back of the freezer. It may be behind the back panel. Thaw the drain until water flows freely through it. Reassemble the freezer, and you are back in business.

Refigerator is leaking

There are many types of leaks and where they begin. It is my understanding that you are speaking of the inside back of the refrigerator. Below is a link that covers many different ways they happen. So if I am mistaken by what you are saying please don't rate me low because your meaning was something different. Just tell me what the problem is an where. Thanks, Sea Breeze

Our Whirlpool top freezer unit is leaking water into the refrigerator. The model number is ET21NKXGW01 and at the top of the inside of the fridge, water is draining out into the fridge. The defrosting...

We were able to fix the freezer water leak. We unscrewed the false freezer floor and the inside back panel. Ice had accumulated on the freezer floor and the defrosting drain was frozen. We removed the ice by using a blow dryer then poured boiling hot water onto the frozen drain hole. The frozen water in the drain pipe hole eventually melted and the water released into the defrosting drip pan at the bottom of the refrigerator. Problem solved. We no longer have water leaking into the refrigerator.

Water leaking inside

Unforturnately, I have the same problem. You have to take the bottom panel of you freezer off. You will have ice built up. You will have to remove the ice. In the back, there is a hole that drains to the drip pan, that has become frozen solid. I have this problem about every 30 days. I wish I knew how to fix the problem. My dad has the same refigerator freezer, it's a problem for him too.

Kenmore refrigerator not cooling

Is there frost on the back wall? If so your coil is frozen up and you have a defrost problem. The water coming out of the freezer door could also be caused by the same problem.
