My side by side with water and ice in the door leaks water down the back of the freezer and it builds up on the light bulb. I think this occurs when the ice maker is trying to fill. :confused:

The fill tube at the back of the ice maker could be blocked with ice forcing the water out the back.
The water inlet valve on the back of the unit where the water supply comes in can have a slow leak and will cause ice to buildup and block the fill tube. Disconnect the ice maker line from the valve and watch to see if it has a slow drip. It doesn’t take much to eventually block the fill tube.
The valve can leak because of sediment in the water preventing it from closing or low water pressure
