Clogged drain hole, disconnected drain tube, high humidity with frequent door openings
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before removing interior panels or working near electrical components.
Steps:
- Locate drain: Inside the cabinet, find the small drain hole or channel at the rear bottom.
- Clear blockage: Use a soft pipe cleaner or plastic zip tie to gently clear any debris from the drain hole.
- Flush with warm water: Using a turkey baster or syringe, flush a small amount of warm water through the drain to ensure it flows freely to the rear drain pan.
- Check drain tube: From the back, verify that the drain tube is properly connected to the drain pan above the compressor.
- Reduce condensation: Minimize door openings and ensure the door gasket seals properly to reduce moisture entry.
