I have a Kenmore side by side model 106.58562891. I tried to search this model and couldn't find anything on it. The specific problem is that it started leaking water when the cold water dispenser is used. Everything else on the unit is working like clockwork. I would assume that the supply line leading to the dispenser is what is leaking. The connections at the supply are intact and are not leaking. I pulled the back bottom cover and can observe the supply line to travel upward behind the fridge section with another line traveling back down and forward toward the door. My leak appears to be before the line that connects to the door and I can find water on the line returning toward the door from the back of the unit. What I can't figure out is how I get to that particular line. It cannot be accessed from the back of the fridge as there are no removable panels on the back of the unit except for the small panel near the bottom of the fridge. Do I need to remove panels from the inside of the fridge in order to inspect and/or replace the line and if so where are they. The only thing that appears to be removable from inside the fridge is near the top left side and at the control panel at the top and front of the compartment. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Gary,
The water line (5/16") goes from the water inlet valve (on the back of the refrigerator) to the water tank in the fresh food compartment (behind the bottom drawer). It goes from the water tank though the refrigerator body into the freezer door (on the bottom). You can access the water line there by removing the bottom grill.
Gene.
