Possible Causes
Food debris blocking drain channel, Frozen drain outlet, Misleveled appliance causing water to run forward
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the appliance before probing any drain openings.
Steps:
- 1. Find the drain channel: At the back of the fridge compartment, below the cooling plate, there is usually a small drain hole or channel.
- 2. Clear blockage: Use a soft pipe cleaner or flexible plastic rod to gently clear debris. Flush with a small amount of warm water until it drains freely.
- 3. Level the fridge: Adjust front feet so the appliance tilts slightly backward, encouraging water to flow to the drain.
- 4. Clean regularly: Wipe spills promptly and avoid pushing food against the back wall.
