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.
