    Refrigerator leaking
    My refrigerator is leaking. Seems like it starts at the freezer and water slowly floods each shelf. Do I need a new refriderator?

    I have been letting refrigerator questions go because another guy seemed to know more than me was answering them. He hasn't answered any questions in over a month. Ok, the B team is back. Likely this is part of the frost free cycle. A heating element may kick on to melt the frost in the freezer. Check the freezer compartment to see if there is a drain and make sure it isn't clogged up.

    I am having the same problem with my refrigerator. It has been leaking for awhile, but only recently has it gotten so bad that the water is pooling on multiple glass shelfs, as well as the bottom underneath the crispers.

    I pulled everything out of my freezer and eliminated all the ice that had clogged up the drain, and that seemed to work for a few days. But a week or so later, it's back again.

    I am going to do the "defrost" routine again this weekend, but I think it may be more than that.

    Help anyone??

    My refrigerator is also seems to be leaking from the freezer down to the shelves in the refrigerator and now to the floor. I will check the drain as was suggested, but could this have anything to do with the fact that I have my freezer jam packed full now?
