Common Symptoms

  • Frozen or clogged defrost drain
  • Water leaking from the freezer or refrigerator
  • Frost or ice buildup associated with a blocked defrost drain

Check Before Replacing

  • Inspect whether the drain strap/heat probe is present and attached to the defrost heater.
  • During a defrost-drain inspection, check whether the probe reaches into the drain opening and is centered with the drain hose.
  • If the drain is frozen or blocked, verify the drain path and defrost components before attributing the issue to this part.

Pro Tip

The probe must be positioned near and centered with the drain opening so heat can reach the drain hose effectively.
