A blocked defrost drain is one of the most common causes of water leaking from your refrigerator and is a good place to start troubleshooting. The small drain opening is easily blocked by food particles or ice, preventing water that accumulated during the defrost cycle from draining to the pan.
Why is my refrigerator leaking water? A: Leaks from the refrigerator often occur due to a broken drain pan. During the defrost cycle, water drains to this pan, and the fan and warm air from the condenser coils cause it to evaporate away. However, if the pan breaks, the water leaks onto the floor. Other potential sources of leaks are a door that doesn't seal or a water line to the ice maker.
