My refrigerator is leaking water at the ice maker site. It is dripping on the ice that is already made. All of the ice cubes are refreezing in large clumps due to the drops of water. Can you tell me what part might need to be replaced? I can see the drops of water at the end piece of the ice maker. Thanks

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 or drip like yours is doing. 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.
