Possible Causes

Blocked defrost drain hole, frozen drain tube, misaligned drain pan, cracked drain tube

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the freezer before removing interior panels. Use towels to catch meltwater.

  • Access drain: Remove the interior rear panel to expose the evaporator and drain trough.
  • Clear blockage: Locate the drain hole beneath the evaporator. Use warm water in a turkey baster or squeeze bottle to flush the drain until water flows freely to the drain pan under the unit.
  • Defrost tube: From the rear, locate the drain tube leading to the pan. If iced, gently warm with a hair dryer on low.
  • Check drain pan: Ensure the drain pan is properly positioned and not cracked.
