Ice builds up on the bottom of the freezer and eventually starts leaking on the floor. The water line, (ice maker) is not attached so I don't know where the water is coming from. I have to remove everything in the freezer, remove basket and break the ice out and then its fine for about a month. Has anyone ever heard of this before, this started about a year ago.

This can be cleared using hot tap water and a turkey baster to inject the hot water into the drain port. The drain tube 5251JA3003B in the compressor section would also need to be replaced.
