Mod #25370609410 KEN Top-Mount Ref

[mike11484848]

Kenmore  refrigerator  Model #25370609410 was bought from sears about 2 yrs. ago. . It has started to form ice on top of freezer in front mostly in the middle & some on the door shelf on top part. It has even formed ice cycles hanging down from middle of the top of freezer just inside of where the freezer door shuts. Ice was 1/4 inch  thick or so back about 5 in or so. Theres a lot of water finding its way to the refrigerator coming out of the refrigerator air vent where fan supply's the air to refrigerator. No defrost problem. evaporator  was clean no frost, no ice in drip pan, no blockage in drain hole  poured hot water to make sure hole drained good.  

Freezer  fan motor blows & sounds good. Door gaskets are like new did the dollar bill test all around make sure was no leakage. The Ice maker went thu a cycle while i was standing there

water came in no leaks the only thing was that it looked like the heater in ice maker may not of been working seems like the cubes shot out like the heater didn't heat them much  or not at all

when harvest time came but i don't see how that would effect the water and ice problem. That was the only problem i found that was off. lol

 The water is freezing just in the front or where the door of freezer closes back about 1/4 in. or so and some on freezer door top shelf with ice cycles hanging down in front on top of freezer front... right in front of where door closes
some reason its like the top of the freezer is sweating or getting moisture from some where and was draining towards the front and freezing in top  front of freezer

It has been doing this about 6 months first 1 1/2yrs. everything was fine. Refrigerator works fine cycles on / off,   freezer freezes fine no problem with the operation of ref.

Got me stumped anybody got any suggestions  would be highly welcome

thank you for any and all help mike

If it is near the front of the freezer near the door, then the door is not sealing properly. You have warm air entering in that area.

ya I had someone send me a service flash on it being behind the gasket, problems with the liner staying sealed, then went on to say would be fixed if still under the warranty lol

gives you a few things to try using silicone sealer if that don't work they tell ya buy new door lol
