RSG5DURS - water leaking from underneath each door hinge

[fathertobe]

It's a side by side model - ie freezer on left, fridge on right.

I've got water pooling underneath each hinge - on freezer and fridge side. THere are various videos on Youtube attempting to fix this on various Samsungs but none I can see on the side by side models.

Do I need to go in from the front or the back to investigate - ie behind all the freezer/fridge shelves? Or from the back panel? Or both?

I've got a feeling this one is fixable but would really appreciate any pointers/experience.

I'm not a plumber (actually just popped on to see if someone had answered my question) but just wondered if your water filter was fitted correctly?

I know some of those types of fridges have inline water filters that are mounted at the back and an incorrectly fitted one could be causing a small leak and the water tracking along to the door hinge?

Just an idea but thought I'd mention it.

Cheers

thanks. It was indeed hell to fit the filter. But no, it isn't leaking. In fact I can't see any liquid inside the fridge or freezer - nor any evidence there has been a lot.
