Your freezer pan is filled with water, just remove freezer bottom panel and back panel with tower.
You will find the drain frozen up. I use boiling water and a turkey baster to unfreeze the drain.
After it is thawed, I wrap a piece of heavy gauge copper wire around the defrost heater and down the drain. This should fix the problem.
