Defrost water leaves through a defrost drain at the bottom back of the freezer, which can clog and let water puddle and leak past the bottom door seal. Source: Whirlpool - Why Is My Refrigerator Leaking Water?

Common Whirlpool Ice Maker and Freezer Problems

• Small or hollow cubes / low ice production. Low water pressure, a kinked line or a clogged or poorly seated filter can all cut flow to the ice maker, and a new install can take about three days to reach full output. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Low Ice Production - Side by Side Refrigerator
• Ice dispenser not working. First confirm whether the ice maker is producing ice at all, and if ice is made but not dropping, unplug the refrigerator for about a minute to reset it. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - Not Dispensing Ice - Refrigerator

Before You Call: The Whirlpool Reset

If the ice maker has a reset button, press and hold it for a few seconds; if not, unplug the refrigerator for 1 minute and plug it back in. Source: Whirlpool Product Help - How to Turn the Ice Maker On and Off
