Yes it is located in the refrigerator on the bottom in the back. I assume you know how to clear it, Hot water plus towel to soak up excess water should take several tries of very hot water until it clears. Good luck

Below that panel in the freezer (evaporator cover) is the drain trough. Most likely it is clogged.

I have an Amana BRD18V1 or V2, bottom freezer. About every two weeks it leaks water on the floor on the right hand side and i have to defrost the bottom part to get about an inch of ice out. I trust...

I assume you mean water leaking on floor of bottom freezer? There should be a small hole in floor in back to drain defrosted water down to pan under unit. This line might be clogged with food or frozen water. Carefully pour some hot/boiling water down tube to clear. You should see it empty into pan under unit where fan evaporates it.

Whirlpool ultraease refrigerator (ED7FHG) making water sounds, and drips water onto steel pan in bottom rear of freezer side. Purchased new. This is an obvious change. Problem?

You have a water leak somewhere (I'm assuming this water sound is constant). If not write me back for other possible solutions.

The only place water comes into the freezer is for an ice maker or a door water dispenser. Check around the ice maker for a leak. If there is a water dispenser in the door then check the piping to it also.

There is a drain in the bottom of the freezer compartment which is there so when the frost is melted by the defrost heaters, it has somewhere to go. This drain drains into the "drip pan" (or condensate pan) in the bottom of the unit. Here the water will sit until it is evaporated into the air.

If this helps you, please select YES to the first two ratings questions. Thank you, and Good Luck.

Ice maker frozen, water leaks from bottom of refrigerator

I am assuming this is a refrigerator that has been in use for some time. The water line coming in is connected to a solenoid valve, this is activated when the icemaker cycling sends a signal for more water. There should be a downward tilt so the water drains from the inlet to prevent freezing of the line. If it is leaking low in the back where the water connects it may be that your solenoid valve is leaking and that you are not getting good water flow to the icemaker. Meaning two things no or very little ice and the possiblility of freezing.

Unless you know what a solenoid valve is and I suggest you call a repair man.
