Hi, i have a GE Profile PFSS6PKWBSS that leaks water. Every few weeks water is collected and flooded below the Deli drawer, which overfills and leaks down to the floor. What is causing this? Thank you in advance.

Water found in deli drawer of refrigerator.

If it is okay when you go to bed and soaking wet in the morning, your defrost drain is blocked.

GE pfss6pkwbss profile WATER COLLECTING AND FREEZING UNDER THE DELI/PRODUCE TRAY

I have been getting these refrigerators steady for the past two weeks with the same symptoms. Problem involves removal of food from the fresh food compartment for twelve hours and leave the doors open with the fridge unplugged as to defrost the ice behind the back center panel so you will be able to remove that panel that has Styrofoam behind it without breaking the panel or the foam. There is a drain behind that panel that needs to be cleaned so water will flow freely to a pan below the refrigerator during defrost. I'm here if you have questions, John T

What can we do to resolve a water issue under the deli drawer? Every few weeks we are seeing water leaking under the fridge on the floor, take out the deli drawer, it's full of water and sopping it u

Your deli fridge is designed to cool and dehumidify the air inside the box. If you are having water issues on the bottom, you'll need to pull the drawers out and anything on the bottom to see if there is a drain plugged. If you find a drain, pour hot water in the bottom of the flush and clean the drain out. Once the drain is clean, reassemble the unit and make it part of your weekly cleaning procedures. If there is no drain and the issue has just started out of nowhere, check the door seals going into the unit. If you have bad seals or mis-aligned doors, your unit will produce more water because it is leaking unconditioned air into the box and your box is dehumidifying air that it normally wouldn't and that will add more water to the bottom of the box

Ice under the deli drawer

it could be that u have a leak.. sometimes this happens when to much water is delivered to the ice tray and it overflows a little leaking into fridge. if that is happening then u most likely have a problem with the water inlet valve at the back of fridge, u can buy the part on line at appliancepros.com. good luck

I have a GE Profile refrigerator, Model PFSS6PKWBSS, with icemaker on door. Water is collecting under Deli-draw and leaking down freezer door onto floor. How do I fix leak?

Hi

Try and access the ice dispenser assembly and check from where the water is leaking. You would need to disassemble the ice dispenser and ice maker to check this. The ice dispenser is located in the upper portion of the freezer compartment. This assembly stores ice made by the icemaker and dispenses ice on demand from the door dispenser target switch.
1. Remove the upper ice bucket tray.
2. Slide out the ice dispenser assembly.
3. Remove the ice cube solenoid linkage Phillips head screw and slide the linkage back.
4. Remove the ice crusher cover Phillips head screws (2) and remove the cover.
5. With a pair of pliers, twist off the backing plate tabs located on either side of the crusher.
6. With 2 small flat-blade screwdrivers, unlock the ice crusher locking tabs located at either side of the ice crusher.
7. Lift the ice crusher out of the bucket.
8. Remove the ice crusher back cover.
9. Remove the locking ring from the ice crusher auger.
10. Remove the plastic nut with a pair of pliers by turning it clockwise.
11. Remove the spacers and blades. The blades are numbered for reassembly.

Icemaker--
The icemaker is located in the upper rear of the freezer compartment and supplies ice to the dispenser tub.
1. Disconnect the icemaker cable connector.
2. Remove 1/4-in. icemaker mounting screws and slide out the icemaker.
This refrigerator is equipped with an Electronic Icemaker.

Hope this helps... Please post back if you need more information.

GE Profile side by side...water collects under the Deli drawer...it's so bad we keep the Deli drawer out and a towel in the space to soak up the water. Any thoughts?

Your evaporator coils frost up in normal use and every eight hours or so the entire unit shuts down and the defrost heater comes on to melt the frost. This cycle last about 20 minutes. The melted frost drips into a drain pan and through a drain tube to the drain tray under the freezer/refrigerator where it's evaporated by the condenser fan.


Your drain tube may be stopped up with ice at the upper end because it drains too slow because it's stopped up at the lower end in the evaporator pan under the unit at the floor. It can get dust and mold in it. Once you get the ice out at the top a little pressure with a turkey baster will usually clear it out. Flushing it out with hot water and clorox may help.
Make sure it drains quick enough to prevent refreezing. . The drain should be located below the evaporator coils on the lower back of the freezer.
