I HAVE WATER ON THE FLOOR WHEN IT MAKES ICE - Maytag 25.6 cu. ft. Wide-By-Side Refrigerator with PuriClean II Ice and Water

Make sure normal drain line (located under the ice) is not clogged. Check gaskets and seals. Also make sure everyone who uses it closes the door completely and does not leave it cracked open. And make sure no one has screwed any thing into it and punctured through it. A screw alone will not keep the water in.

Defrost is not working and that is causing the leak.

check all water supply connections to the fridge,

Most times it's the water control valve on the rear of refrigerator and near the floor. And you can test the ice maker by filling with water. Let it freeze and if it dumps the ice and does not refill then the water control valve. If the water freezes and nothing happens the the ice maker is the problem. If you had your model number I could tell you part numbers. Anyway try that and let me know your findings. Kenmore uses a model number like 312.54689 for example found on front near floor and behind the fresh food section door. Let me know, Thanks Sea Breeze

Fill the ice maker with water. If it freezes and dumps the the water control valve on rear of the refrigerator and near floor is defective and will need replace. If the water just freezes then the ice maker thermostat is the problem, Let me know,Thanks Sea Breeze

I wonder if you just notice the noise now because the leak has you more aware? First things first. Lift up the arm on the ice maker (a few hours prior to attempting service) to stop it's operation. You need to roll the unit forward to give you access to the back. You'll see a plastic tube that runs from the bottom compartment (water valve) to the ice maker fill tube. Lower the arm of the ice maker and observe the plastic tube for the location of the leak. The most likely spot would be at the top. A hose clamp can be put on the fill tube after making sure the plastic supply tube is completely inserted into the fill tube. The fill tube is the piece that goes through the rear bulkhead and delivers the water to the icemaker. It may be neccessary to remove the icemaker to thaw out the fill tube using a hair dryer.

well theres a couple of things it will do at that frequency.defrost cycles and may be making ice.defrost water goes down a drain.ice maker fills thru tubes.also the defrost drain could be blocked you would see ice on frezeer floor.you have to us your fingers and trace out those places to find leak

Sounds like the water solinoid valves are wired wrong.One activates The water dispenser.The other the ice maker.That, why every so often the water shoots out on the floor.The ice maker is telling the valve to open.
