Possible Causes
Clogged condensate channel at rear wall, Food debris blocking drain hole, Ice build-up in drain due to poor defrosting
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug before inserting tools into the drain.
Steps:
- Locate drain: At the back of the fridge compartment, just above the crisper, find the small drain hole in the condensation channel.
- Clean channel: Wipe away slime or debris from the channel with a cloth and mild detergent.
- Unblock drain: Use a soft, flexible cleaning tool (e.g., plastic drain cleaner or pipe cleaner) to gently clear the hole. Do not use metal objects that can puncture the liner.
- Flush with warm water: Use a syringe or turkey baster to flush warm water through the drain until it flows freely into the rear drain pan.
