My Kenmore 253.73873300 is leaking water from the inside of the fridgerator part. In the back along the top, there is an assembly with a curved cord or hose that is dripping water at it's lowest point. I have attached a picture for reference. I looked in the freezer portion, and I can't see that the floor of the freezer can be removed. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Is the freezer and refrigerator staying cold enough? If it's a frost free freezer you may have a plugged drain line. I'm not familiar with this model but, most freezers will go into a defrost cycle about twice a day. When this happens the ice melts off your coil in the freezer and the water runs out a drain down to the bottom of the refrigerator where it is evaporated using the heat from the condenser. If the drain line gets plugged the water will run down into the refrigerator.

Jack is correct, sounds like a frozen or clogged drain tube that runs out the back of the fridge where you took the picture!
