You have to remove the rear panel in the freezer to access it. Defrost it using a hair dryer and hot water. Make sure the other end of the defrost hose (on the back of the refrigerator) is clean. Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for General Electric GSS22WGPAWW Refrigerator \| AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.
