Please any idea would help! I cannot find anywhere to "unscrew" this tray.... my model Kenmore 60089 (20.4 cu. ft) seems different from this video - please help ?
@@WtTw-x2l The only thing I can think of if it’s not screwed on, there has to be a latch (latches) somewhere that hold it in place. Unless it’s glued on. Your best bet would be to search for a manual for your particular model to see how the assembly is held in place. Good luck!
@@weekendwarrior3814 Thank you for taking the time to reply! Also, your video is very good, especially it explains clearly why (as opposed to just how to do), thanks!
Thank you Weekend Warrior! I am a 54 year-old petite woman and I just fixed the water leak at my 85 year-old parents’ house thanks to your clear instructions. My parents think I am a genius! What a fun day!
Haha funny I am an almost 54 year old woman who is here to try and fix my own fridge again.. I fixed the freezer fan in the past which had stopped running simply because of ice caught in the blades and my sons were impressed. I aim to do it again! Receive a pat on your back from me… 😂
Thank you. It took me 8 hours to fix my fridge because I was using one of the multitude of videos that had me go through the freezer. It was when I saw that your fridge light thing was the same as mine that I knew I had found the right place. Thank you
Mine is flooded from the freezer and it's enlarged the hole and pushed the insulation into the fridge, because maintenance was lazy and didn't care that I was using 2 rolls of towels a day
What do I do if I have only one nut or bolt holding the thing in place and it doesn’t look like a socket driver is going to work? It looks like a socket, it’s inside the ring, not outside it.
Thank you! That was so easy! I actually contacted a plumber and he said he would have to charge over $200 to do a cleaning or something ridiculous! Thanks so much!
Thanks to your video, my 1973 "Custom Crafted No Frost" Harvest Gold Hotpoint refrigerator is back to it's old self, with no water under the crisper pans. I would never have thought to check under that panel on the inside top of the fridge compartment and it took a Philips screwdriver. I'm 72 years old and on a fixed income and this saved me a ton of money and having to buy a smaller fridge. I know I'll have to replace it eventually, but not today. Thank you thank you thank you!
Just saved me a big hassle and money. Initially, I tried clearing out the drain hole in the freezer, but that wasn't it. This was exactly my problem. Thanks for the vid!
3 years after this video was posted, it is still has relevant as it was the day it was posted. EXACTLY the same fridge, EXACTLY the same issue and... THANK YOU... I remember drains in old fridges (I'm over 60 y.o.) but, couldn't figure out where the drain was on this fridge! Fixed my problem! Thanks a lot!
OMG Thank you so much. I have been struggling for months. I had not only a clog but ice in the tray blocking everything. You are amazing. Frigidaire couldn't even help me. You saved me having to call repair company.
My fridge has been leaking for a while. Thought I’d have to take out all the food and defrost it. So glad I decided to look for a video to see what there was. This video helped so much. It took me longer to take the stuff out of the fridge then it did to fix it. Thanks
This was so simple a fix !! But it took me a very long to find this one of a kind video. Its identical to my fridge. Just a suggestion more people who need may find faster if "Frigidaire " is in the title. Was actually a block of ice, water had frozen in the tray plugging exit.
I have a Kenmore I bought new in 2007 that is identical to your Frigidaire, has been working like a charm until the leak started a few months back. Your video helped to identify the problem and the fix was ridiculously easy and simple. Many thanks!
This is a spot on- easy to follow video. I am, uh, not young. I followed the guidance in this video. I fixed my refrigerator and saved a bunch of money. Thank you!
Thank you so much for posting this video! It took 12 minutes from the time I turned off the power to unclog the drain. I wouldn't have had a clue without watching this!
T H A N K Y O U !!! We have a Frigidaire Gallery refrigerator and your video was E X A C T L Y C O R R E C T !!! Found a big plug in the exhaust tube and a block of ice. 5 sec fix. Worked just as you showed. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
This video was very helpful. This was my exact brand refrigerator & the exact water leak problem. I attempted the job, fearful at first, but hopeful, with much prayer. I was able to complete it as instructed. It took me 1 hour. I thank God for helping me & I am greatful to the person who created this post. Thank you very much🤗
We bought a place with large kitchen appliances and have been mopping the water under the crispers for 8 months. We bought a new fridge last week and I listed the old one in the local BST. I got to feeling bad about selling a leaky fridge but so glad I found your video, which gave me (66 y/o grandma) the confidence to fix it! Turned out the bio-slime plug was lodge way down-inside the channel running inside the body of the fridge, so I snaked it out with some flexible wire, ran hot water through it using a long flexible funnel. Now I can sell this old fridge and not worry about it being someone else's problem.
We have a Kenmore fridge model 253. Same exact problem. The fix worked perfect. We were about ready to go this Sunday to drop $1000 on a replacement. Thank you. I just subscribed.
Thanks, I had changed the inlet to the ice maker thinking it was the problem. I took off the tray you showed, it was clogged and full of ice. Thanks again.
Thanks for the clear cut video w/fix! My garage fridge was exactly how you showed it would be! The electrical panel that I removed had the ice buildup. The hole in the back of the fridge was clogged w/debris. After clearing the obstruction w/a round brush, and squirting water in the hole to make sure there wasn't an obstruction further down in the line I put it back together and plugged it in. Thanks again!
This video helped solve my issue!! Thank you!!!! 🙏 I found that there was a drain clog causing leaking… but also that the ice buildup was so bad that it was blocking the airflow from the freezer to the fridge. So my fridge was not cooling like it should have been! Seriously. As a single gal this was a simple fix I was able to do on my own. Thank you!
I have this exact refrigrator and was ready to buy a new one due to a water leak. This video was amazing! Thank you so much for producing it. Problem solved after viewing this video.
UPDATE: I went ahead and did this, and it worked like a charm! Thank you so much for the advice! Thank you! I probably should call my landlord before attempting this, but it is good to be able to tell him what I think the problem is, and that it probably won't cost much if he prefers to send someone over. My apartment has had many problems (none of which I caused) from the time I moved in, so I just hate having to ask for help again.
It's pretty painless. Take out the four screws, unplug the tray from the nipple in the back. I put a nylon over the hose of a vacuum cleaner, and sucked goop out of the drain hose in the back. With the nylon to catch it, I could see exactly what was in there. You can do this in less time than it would take to call the landlord.
Thank you! I just ran into the same exact problem with my Frigidaire and followed your exact steps. Your video was detailed and allowed me to get the issue resolved without having to call for professional services.
Thanks for the great video. I had some food particles that lodged further down the drain tube and I was unable to clean it out with a wire because the drain tube is not straight and narrows as it travels to the bottom. I was also unable to clean the tube from their bottom. What I did to clear the drain hose was to squirt liquid bleach into the top drain hole with a turkey baster and let it set until it cleared the blockage. I then rinsed it with plain water until the blockage was completely gone.
You are the best of the best. I was using kotex to catch the overflow. Then trying to let it dry, to re-use. There's a gel in there binding the water. Kotex, after kotex. This is now 2 weeks. Well, my hole was filled with what appears to be cat hair and mildew. I removed this thick plug. I cleaned out the catch basin after removing the ice-skating rink in it. Then with shout, followed by WD40, then windex. The unit is spotless and reassembled. I can't thank you enough, kind sir!!!!!!
Thank you so much for the video on repairing my refrigerator. It was so easy my sister and we’re able to do it ourselves which was an accomplishment as we are both in our 70’s haha. It saved us a lot of money. Thank you again.
This was exactly the problem with my Fridgeadaire. The drain nipple was totally clogged with smeg to the point where ice was forming in the tray and water then running out and over into the bottom of the fridge. Great video.
Thanks so much for sharing because this saved me a whole lot of money. Our refrigerator has been leaking water for months, and now it doesn't. Thank you for the clear directions and letting us know what tools were used also.
Thank You so very much this video actually resolved our refrigerator problem. The hole in the drain tray was plugged with gunk once removed and cleared like shown in the video, our refrigerator worked even better than before. This video saved us from buying a new refrigerator and it was EZ to do because the refrigerator in the video is similar to ours. 8/28/22 update our refrigerator is still working really good problem solved.
Worked great on Frigidare model FGHT1835SF1. It uses one 1/4" hex-head screw, located in recessed hole near the front center. Remove that screw and then slide/pull the console forward (toward door) to release from the two square retainer tabs.
You really just helped me fix my fridge THANK YOU SO MUCH....I lived life on the edge by not unplugging it or turning off my breaker BUT I was done in no time.
God bless you! This made repairing way easier. The usual defreeze trick didn't work, and when I unscrewed it I found some algae looking gunk blocking it up.
First of all, let me say thank you for this video. I had the exact same problem with my fridge, albeit a different brand but similar in design. After watching your video it took me approx. 15 minutes and I was back up and running. Keep up the awesome videos.
I really appreciate you for sharing this video you just saved me $ 1000 dollars I was about to buy a new fridge again thank you so much for showing me this video you are absolutely a savior
Thanks. I have the same kind of Frigidaire refrigerator with a water leak problem. This video is really helpful! I followed your video and fixed the issue! Thanks again!
This video is perfect, exactly what we needed to fix our fridge ourselves, it worked!! We saw a few videos before, tried a few things but hit the jackpot here. I'm so grateful... Thank YOU!! 🙏
Thank you so much for this! It took me only five minutes to remove that gunk! Exactly the same gunk that is stuck in that drain! It took me more time to look for my 1/4 inch socket, now i have to re-organize my tools! Thanx again
I have a Kenmore (Sears) that I bought in 2012 but it exactly matched the innards of this Frigidaire, and I FIXED IT!!!! Thank you very much for your video! :)
Thank you so very much - I found many other you tube videos but none matched my model. I had our fridge repaired in less than 5 minutes with your video !!!!
worked great I looked at a couple different videos but this was the exact model but what I did as well was take a shop vac and take off that piece of cardboard in the back on the bottom of the fredge and if you look you will see a black hose . slide that off and put the shop vac on it and if you go inside the fredge see if it has suction on the tube hole. that way you make sure its all unclogged. also but removing that cardboard and doing this you can clean out all the dust it builds up alot.
Thank you so much for this video. Saved me a ton of time and expense! I had looked a bunch of other videos and websites but this video had my exact problem for a fridge like mine. From an ice buildup in the tray right down to the sludge in the back of the drain!
Great video. This is exactly what was wrong with our fridge. I went to ACE, got the 1/4 inch tool, removed the casing, wow, a complete blockage. Removed the blockage and it's a brand new fridge. Thanks
Please any idea would help! I cannot find anywhere to "unscrew" this tray.... my model Kenmore 60089 (20.4 cu. ft) seems different from this video - please help ?
Incredible. I got a feeling this could be my situation. Funny I was just ready to buy a new fridge now with big sales going on. I have mopped up this water for a very long time. I can handle this repair myself. I accidently found your video today after googling some of the new mechanics on the newer models. And then I got a link that brought me here. What a blessing. Thank you a million times. You said word for word what I have seen and experienced. Take care and stay well my hero.
My fridge is a Kenmore (Sears), but has the same assembly. This video's instructions are identical to my needs, and I easily removed the assembly and then removed a big block of ice from the pan, and a big piece of schmutz from the nipple, just like in the video. THANKS tons! You saved me from an expensive service visit, or even a new fridge.
Wow this was happening to my fridge. I followed the steps here and come to find out a the hole on the tray had got plugged up with some tomato piece of sort. I removed it and now fridge is no longer leaking. Thanks for posting this 👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have the exact same fridge shown in your video and have been having water pooling at the bottom for years. I’d just been mopping up the water every other week with a towel! Lol. Now it’s fixed and it was amazing to see ice in the tray and a lot of gunk in the ‘nipple’. You just saved me an expensive repair bill. Merry Christmas! 🎅🏻
Omg. I just did this in my fridge because was leaking. It just took my less then 10 min to take apart, take out what was blocking it and put back. It was ice and some nasty gunk. Thank you so much for this video 👍👍👍
Thanks for this video. It was a great help. I had ice up in the recess space, but no water in the light fixture. At least I know where to check going forward and what to do. Thanks much!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Took about 10 minutes to fix something that was a pain in the posterior for a long time and causing unnecessary anxiety.
This was incredibly helpful. I followed instructions -- a snap, if you have a 1/4 socket driver -- and it all worked exactly as described. I found some slimy goo in the nipple and in the tray, and cleaned them both out. I suppose it's possible that there's a blockage somewhere in the drain line, causing it to back up, but if that had been the case, I'd have expected to find water in the drain line, and I didn't. So, I think this solved the problem. If not, I'll try to snake it, perhaps with a bit of coax cable, since I've found that to be an ideal snake for certain plumbing applications. At any rate, thanks for this. In their wisdom the Frigidaire folks don't seem to have any online information on how to do simple repairs like this, and the manual doesn't even mention that there's a drain line back there. The word "nipple" doesn't come up either, but there might be something else going on there!
Thank you for the information👍 It took me 2 min with your video... A helpful hint... Use the screw driver/rachet socket without a socket, in my case I have a Kenmore refrigerator.... Thanks again👍
Please any idea would help! I cannot find anywhere to "unscrew" this tray.... my model Kenmore 60089 (20.4 cu. ft) seems different from this video - please help ?
Thank you for the explanation and demonstration: this is extremely useful information. I cannot believe how much water pools at the bottom of the fridge due to this problem. Frigidaire in general is not as reliable in terms of longevity as it used to be (minus this problem). God bless you!
Man. I was searching Maytag manuals, videos, and forums for this exact problem, but didn’t trust my luck removing anything. Thanks for this video - it’s compatible with Maytag model MTB2193AR! Fished out a whole lot of yuck from the clogged drain!

@@arleneraygoza40 hi it’s a quarter inch screw socket. You can take a screenshot of the video where we demonstrate the tool to have a picture.

Just curious was the water leaking out through the door seal or vents that he explained or was it coming directly from underneath the fridge itself?
Mine is flooded from the freezer and it's enlarged the hole and pushed the insulation into the fridge, because maintenance was lazy and didn't care that I was using 2 rolls of towels a day
Does RUclips not allow you to save the video anymore?
What do I do if I have only one nut or bolt holding the thing in place and it doesn’t look like a socket driver is going to work?
It looks like a socket, it’s inside the ring, not outside it.
@@Aggression-hc3yp Not sure what you mean. You need a screw driver handle with a nut driver end. Or a long correct size socket with a rachet handle.
This was our exact model refrigerator and our exact problem. We were able to fix the problem, saving us from buying a new refrigerator. Thanks
Same here, same model,same pblm,same solution
Thank you! That was so easy! I actually contacted a plumber and he said he would have to charge over $200 to do a cleaning or something ridiculous! Thanks so much!
Thanks soooooo much. I'm a 79 year old female and I'm gonna do it myself to save money. I do screwdriver stuff. Appreciate you!!!
Thanks to your video, my 1973 "Custom Crafted No Frost" Harvest Gold Hotpoint refrigerator is back to it's old self, with no water under the crisper pans.

Thanks! My dad died in 1998. I would have loved to show him how videos like this have made home & auto repair so much easier.

Thank you. The Clogged has been cleared. Effortless procedure. Worked like a charm with your directions
Thank you so much for this video. Saved me a ton of time and expense! I had looked a bunch of other videos and websites but this video had my exact problem for a fridge like mine. From an ice buildup in the tray right down to the sludge in the back of the drain!
Thank you for mentioning the tool needed! Now I can go to the hardware store and ask for the correct item!
Great video. This is exactly what was wrong with our fridge. I went to ACE, got the 1/4 inch tool, removed the casing, wow, a complete blockage. Removed the blockage and it's a brand new fridge. Thanks
Thanks- my daughter and I fixed it within 15 mins.! Very easy to understand your instructions.
Was it easy I'm going to do mine tomorrow?
Please any idea would help! I cannot find anywhere to "unscrew" this tray.... my model Kenmore 60089 (20.4 cu. ft) seems different from this video - please help ?
Incredible. I got a feeling this could be my situation. Funny I was just ready to buy a new fridge now with big sales going on. I have mopped up this water for a very long time. I can handle this repair myself. I accidently found your video today after googling some of the new mechanics on the newer models. And then I got a link that brought me here. What a blessing. Thank you a million times. You said word for word what I have seen and experienced. Take care and stay well my hero.
Thank you so much!! This video saved us from buying a new refrigerator!
First of all, i want to thank you, man, for this video. It solved my 2 year leaking problem with my fridge, greatly appreciated!!
My fridge is a Kenmore (Sears), but has the same assembly. This video's instructions are identical to my needs, and I easily removed the assembly and then removed a big block of ice from the pan, and a big piece of schmutz from the nipple, just like in the video. THANKS tons! You saved me from an expensive service visit, or even a new fridge.
Thank you I was shopping for a new fridge when I happened to look on RUclips for a fix! Took me all of 5 minutes and fixed!!
Excellent video! I could never find a video like yours. Now it is fixed because of your video! Thanks!!!
Wow this was happening to my fridge. I followed the steps here and come to find out a the hole on the tray had got plugged up with some tomato piece of sort. I removed it and now fridge is no longer leaking. Thanks for posting this 👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have the exact same fridge shown in your video and have been having water pooling at the bottom for years. I’d just been mopping up the water every other week with a towel! Lol. Now it’s fixed and it was amazing to see ice in the tray and a lot of gunk in the ‘nipple’. You just saved me an expensive repair bill. Merry Christmas! 🎅🏻
Thank you, this video saved us 100 dollars !! Worked as shown. There was a blockage. This video was very easy to follow. Thank you again !
Fixed mine in 10 minutes. Spent more time looking for my socket adapter.😢. Felt very confident while doing the work.
Great video. To the point!
Thanks, I was able to fix our fridge and look cool in front of my husband 😁 took no time at all
Same, except I was able to fix our fridge and look cool in front of my wife!😄
Thank you so much,I did what you thought me and my fridge is fix now.Didn’t need to buy new fridge.
Omg.
I just did this in my fridge because was leaking. It just took my less then 10 min to take apart, take out what was blocking it and put back. It was ice and some nasty gunk.
Thank you so much for this video 👍👍👍
Thanks for this video. It was a great help. I had ice up in the recess space, but no water in the light fixture. At least I know where to check going forward and what to do. Thanks much!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! Took about 10 minutes to fix something that was a pain in the posterior for a long time and causing unnecessary anxiety.
Wow! This is great. My exact style of Frigidaire, too. In my case water is collecting on the top shelf but I’m going to try this fix today! Thank!!!
This was incredibly helpful. I followed instructions -- a snap, if you have a 1/4 socket driver -- and it all worked exactly as described. I found some slimy goo in the nipple and in the tray, and cleaned them both out. I suppose it's possible that there's a blockage somewhere in the drain line, causing it to back up, but if that had been the case, I'd have expected to find water in the drain line, and I didn't. So, I think this solved the problem. If not, I'll try to snake it, perhaps with a bit of coax cable, since I've found that to be an ideal snake for certain plumbing applications. At any rate, thanks for this. In their wisdom the Frigidaire folks don't seem to have any online information on how to do simple repairs like this, and the manual doesn't even mention that there's a drain line back there. The word "nipple" doesn't come up either, but there might be something else going on there!
Thank you. The water under the fridge was driving me crazy. Thank you again!
THANK YOU! That was exactly it. Your video was much more helpful than anything else I could find.
Have never seen an excellent video like this. Indeed Thank you for your Help!
Thank you for the information👍 It took me 2 min with your video... A helpful hint... Use the screw driver/rachet socket without a socket, in my case I have a Kenmore refrigerator.... Thanks again👍
Thanks a bunch. This was very informative and truly help me with my leaking refrigerator.
Glad it helped!
Easy fix! Thank you it's just what I needed. The thumbnail image is perfect, I could recognize my fridge model from it 💯
Thank you so much for posting this video. I have the same model and found your video. I successfully unclogged the water line!
It took me a long time of mopping water to finally find this and fix in 10 minutes.
Please any idea would help! I cannot find anywhere to "unscrew" this tray.... my model Kenmore 60089 (20.4 cu. ft) seems different from this video - please help ?
Weekend Warrior to the rescue ! Thanks for your simple explanation and excellent video - worked like a charm.
Glacial melt is now back to normal :)
Thank you for the explanation and demonstration: this is extremely useful information. I cannot believe how much water pools at the bottom of the fridge due to this problem. Frigidaire in general is not as reliable in terms of longevity as it used to be (minus this problem). God bless you!
Thanks, this was exactly why mune was leaking, easy fix!
Man. I was searching Maytag manuals, videos, and forums for this exact problem, but didn’t trust my luck removing anything. Thanks for this video - it’s compatible with Maytag model MTB2193AR! Fished out a whole lot of yuck from the clogged drain!
Thank you for taking the time to put together all of your helpful tips and tricks.
