I have a Kenmore side-by-side (Model # 106 9555610) with the water inlet to the ice maker keep running that flooded my kitchen floor. I turned off the water supply, pulled/unplugged the ice maker but the water will keep running out from the fill tube. Please help, thanks!

you need to locate the shutoff valve, because if water is still coming out you don't have the water supply shut off.

If the water line was attached to a main water supply with a self tapping valve,a small brass valve with a t shaped handle,these often go bad with time.The peircing point often rusts away etc so it may be this valve is no longer stopping water flow.
