Hello! I have a Kenmore refrigerator model #10656576400. It stopped making ice for a while but then started up again. Now it is leaking water and filling up the tray underneath the ice cube mold. Is it filling the ice cube tray up too full? I don't know what the problem seems to be.

The water supply solenoid valve may be malfunctioning or the fill tube to the icemaker may be mis-positioned.

Defrost is not working and that is causing the leak.

yes the lever needs tp be push lightly down and then the ice maker will be in on position again. then the ice maker will call for water then it should start making ice in a few hours.

I have a Kenmore Coldspot Model #69207990 and have the same problem. Water from the freezer drains into the refridgerator onto the shelves and sheets of ice form. A repairman pointed out that the tube leading down from the freezer onto the drain pan was frozen. By pouring hot water down the tube, he reopened this drain line. Problem solved for six months and the drain line froze again. My question is how to stop this drain line from freezing up again.

there are 2 pipes going from the pump at the bottom of your unit ... 1 to the ice maker and the other to the filter for water.
make sure the pip for the ice make is tight in the connector of the valve ... let me know...

Your water valve is stuck open. Is it for the ice maker or the water dispenser? It could be the switch in the door calling for water instead of the valve. Does it stop when you unplug the refrigerator?

hi debie normaly the life of these ice maker range from 3 to 4 years then the wtr hardness eats them up and the mold start leaking wtr but if is a fairly new model the you have a faulty wtr vale that is not closing sending wtr all the time to the ice maker repl the ice maker is you see is peeling of the texture inside if it is ok repl the valve

sounds like the flap that u can usually hear once the ice has stoppped coming out it sounds like a pop or thud ...what happens is the magnet goes bad and keeps the ice maker constantly open to the outside air causing ice melting and massive ice cubes.....usually a costly repair...check and lemme know

ps. id have a licenced repair guy check it out

ok there's a handle in the ice maker 1 position turns it on another turns it off just do that and the ice should stop coming down if it dosent just remove the water connection to it
