Default Water in bottom of fridge

Actually, a common problem. After you remove the ice from the freezer.
Look for a drain line (which is not really obvious) that goes from the
freezer compartment, to the tray under the fridge section. Take a
turkey baster and some hot water, and rinse out the drain line. The
defrost water is supposed to run to a tray under the fridge, and then
evaporate off.

Also, open the fridge, unsnap the cover at floor level. Pull the tray
out, and scrub it, as it's likely dirty. A splash of clorox bleach,
cause they grow mold and such. And put the tray back.

Subject line explains it. I did search for info, and found web
archives about removing ice from under the base-plate of the freezer
compartment. And there was indeed a big sheet of ice where there
supposedly should have been an air passage. Removed the ice. Fridge
dry for a few days. But now it's back, along with the iceberg.

This must be caused by something else. If it matters, the fridge model
is: GE TBXY14LPJRWH

I know it's a long shot, but maybe someone here is familiar.
