Sounds all the world like the draing tube to the tray underneath the fridge is plugged. It's there to drain the condensation and, especially, the water from the automatic defroster, if you have one (which is likely). Locate the drain entrance, which is probably on the bottom under the drawers. Run a small wire down the tube... gently. You may even be able to get a samll diameter bottle brush down it. While you're at it,be sure to clean the gunk out of the drain tray, which everyone overlooks. It'll be a tray about 1 to 2 inches deep directly uncer the fridge. You can also try to clean the drain tube fromt hat end... Best of luck!

I had the same trouble, and did as Clanad said. It only takes a minute or so to do, and works perfectly afterwards.

We have to do as Clanad states about every 2 months on our Candy frost free freezer.
