Check the tube for cracks. Does it leak all the time? If so, might be a faulty water valve. Possibly calcification build-up not letting it close all the way. Remove the ice maker, and observe. If it leaks without any call to make ice, then suspect the water valve. Does it build up slowly? Rakes a while to build up enough ice to freeze everything solid? If so the tube might be cracked. But if it happens fairly quickly then the water valve is most likely not seating fully, and will need replaced. You can try and take it out, clean it well with vinegar to dissolve calcification, and see how it does then. But thats not a guarantee. It could be weak solenoid, weak spring, or damage to the actual mechanism preventing it from seating fully.
