Update to ""Flood" Problem in Refrigerator"
This is an update to my "Flood" Problem in Refrigerator thread:
http://groups.google.com/group/misc....00f478ce0fded6 I did not have the confidence to do this repair myself, so I called A&E Factory Service (an authorized Whirlpool repair shop). A technician came and did the job for $160 (expensive). The problem was just as those who responded to my posting said: a clogged drain tube located behind the back panel of the freezer compartment. Clogged with ice. Cleared with hot water. Problem gone. That was 12 days ago. Thanks again to all who responded to my original post. You guys were completely right on this one. ---With Appreciation ---TConrad |

If you hang a bare copper wire, 12 ga is best, from the defrost heater down into the drain the ice won't return. if you didn't, it will. |
