Default Water Accumulation in Bottom of Frigidaire Refrigerator

SNIP
MORE INFO:

I found a YouTube video of someone modifying a similar "contraption"
to mine that causes water to drip on top shelf. I assume the water on
top shelf in my refrigerator migrates to the bottom.

Also, this "contraption" might be an "automatic defrost control"???

Again, Thanks in advance, John


You just need to unclog the drain in the bottom of the freezer. The
water will drip out into the tray under the fridge and be boiled off
by the condenser coils. That is how it works.

I did NOT see a drain in the freezer (after I removed the rack
type drawer).

Did you remove the back panel inside the freezer section ? That's where
the drain tray and tube are, and where it freezes up. BTDT.

It's item 10 in this parts diagram

Maybe I missed the model number but on my side by side Whirlpools (2)
it is right in the middle of the freezer compartment.
No matter what, it will be at the bottom of the sloped floor.


Hi,

, Thinking LOGICALLY, if a drain in the FREEZER was clogged, why isn't the
water (becomes ice) collecting in the FREEZER since it CAN NOT drain???

How is the water getting into the refrigerator with a clogged drain in the
freezer. Note: The freezer is on top of the refrigerator.

Again, Thanks in advance.
