Hey gang,

I've tried to get some help from several of the appliance repair forums, to no
avail.  So I thought I'd ask here, as there's nothing that someone here doesn't
know.

I have a GE vertical (refrig on top, freezer drawer on botom) model 
PDS20SBRARSS refrig.  It's about 4 yrs old and has worked great since we
bought it.

Last year we moved it over about 2 feet, swapped it's position with a set of
cabinets.  Since then, it has started leaking water about once a 
month. When I notice water on the floor in front of it, I open the 
freezer and see that there is ice covering the bottom of the freezer 
compartment. Otherwise it is working fine, the freezer area stays 
about 0 and the refrig area about 37 deg F.

I don't think it's a defrost problem, otherwise the 2 compartments would not
stay cold.

This unit does not have an ice maker. So no water is connected to the refrig.

I think it might be a clogged drip tube, but I don't see a drip tube 
(or hole)  when
I look in the freezer.

Nor do I see a drip pan looking under the refrig from the front.

Anyone have any ideas?

TIA

John
