Default refrigerator incontinence

What you're describing (cold coils in the floor of the
freezer) could only be a frost free model. If it's frost
free, it's got a drain. Wish I could give you more details.
The drain is always in the center, in the back. At least the
ones I've fixed.

You'll have to pull all the food, ice maker, shelves, etc,
out of the freezer. Take the back off, and also carefully
pull the bottom of the freezer out. The drain should be way
in the back, in the center. It may be full of a layer of
ice, that needs to be melted first. Drain is typically
about
1/4 inch diameter.


Actually, I had already removed the freezer floor. But, I
went back and
did it again. I still don't see a drain opening. There is
no ice
build-up. And, I don't see any evidence of a drain line
coming to the
bottom of the lower portion, where the drain to the
evaporator tray is.
Sometimes, I just miss things. But, is it possible that
some
refrigerators don't have a freezer drain? This is a
1980-ish model.
