Default Puddle under kenmore side-by-side
Brand: Kenmore
Age: 5 - 10 years

i came home today for lunch and had apuddle on the floor under fridge. i know drain is clear as i checked it a month or two ago and it was clean and there is some water in drip tray, but not overflowing. found water to be coming out of the screw holes?!? on the back of the fridge at the top of the unit. screw holes meaning where the panels screw onto the back. there are also 4 hard plastic spacers i gues to keep it off of the wall behind the unit. when i removed one of these screws, water shot out of the hole. a friend said it could be where the water enters the back of the fridge at the top, the bushing/adapter could be leaking water into that area. any ideas or suggestions. i will start exploratory surgery tonight and also ppst model number. thanks in advance,

bill

looks like the fitting between the ice maker tube from outside the fridge and the tube inside the fridge, was plugged up with ice. this in between piece is rubber and split under the pressure. i have checked the diagrams and cannot find a definitive picture of it. i think the part number is PS46696, "assy, fill tube". if anyone can confirm this, i would be in their debt.
