Could a failing Drain Tube Grommet/P-Trap cause the WHIRLPOOL WRS325SDHZ to have symptom: Leaking Water?

The most common failure mode in Whirlpool side-by-sides is a clogged 'duckbill' or drain grommet. When the evaporator defrosts, the water cannot exit via the intended drainage path to the pan; it eventually overflows the internal drain trough and leaks into the floor of the compartment and eventually the kitchen floor.

Could a failing Dual Water Inlet Valve cause the WHIRLPOOL WRS325SDHZ to have symptom: Leaking Water?

The polymer housing of the solenoid valve is subject to stress-cracking or internal seal failure over time. If the leak originates from the rear bottom of the unit, this component is the most likely pressurized failure point responsible for uncontrolled water flow.

Could a failing Water Filter Housing Assembly cause the WHIRLPOOL WRS325SDHZ to have symptom: Leaking Water?

The internal bypass valves or O-ring seats within the filter housing can fail, especially after a filter change or due to water hammer effects. This results in a persistent drip or leak localized in the upper refrigerator section that may migrate down the back wall.
