Could be that the fridge is not closing properly and gathering humidity.
Also could be a clogged drain pipe. On my fridge I had to empty my freezer.
Remove the bottom tray and back wall (about four screws total) at which
point I could see the defroster wire. The drain pipe in the rear was full of
ice, as well as under the tray. I removed what ice I could and then poured
warm water into the drain, then sucked it out with a baster... Eventually I
cleared the blockage.
