I have a Woods refrigerator

Hi Linda. We have the identical model of Woods all-fridge and experienced this problem several times over the course of several months. Hopefully this is still timely.The short answer is that the clear flexible-plastic drain tube that runs from the inside rear of the fridge down to the catch tray (underneath the cabinet, next to the floor, behind the kick-plate) is sufficiently plugged (with some kind of gunk, probably from a spill inside the fridge) to cause a back-up. I suppose the inner diameter of the tube is maybe 3/16" so it can easily get clogged. Consequently, the water runs down the inside back of the fridge & eventually ends up in the depressions below the crispers. In our case, after those depressions filled (and I hadn\'t noticed), the water would run out onto the floor.Initially, I used a fine wire to poke some of the gunk out of the tube but I didn\'t get it all out. Just enuff to let some of the water get thru, but the tube would plug up again. After a few repeats of the problem, separated by a month or 2 each time, I decided a more "drastic" tube cleaning was required.I suppose a good strong compressed air blast might clear the tube completely, but I didn\'t have that available so I had to use a semi-flexible wire & sorta gunk out the tube. It\'s been about 1.5 yrs. since that more thorough tube cleaning & the problem hasn\'t come back, so I think the tube got plugged from a spill in the fridge (which thankfully hasn\'t re-occurred... yet). BTW, I don\'t have the manual either, but the lower part of the tubing is accessible from behind the fridge. I didn\'t pull it completely out (which might have disconnected it from its fitting), I simply reamed it out while it was in-place.Hope this has been of some help to you.Norm.

How to defrost

easiest way is to unplug and get a heat gun and melt the ice. don't use anything sharp to scrape the ice, you could pierce the refrigerant line.

The fan does not run on my woods freezer.

just b/c the fan is not running does not always indicate a bad fan motor. there is a capacitor and relays and switches that can go bad, my guess would be the capacitor. you need an electrician to verify though.

Banging noise

Usually the condenser fan blade hitting on some part of the condenser or shroud.If you can access it, check the fan mountings, and blade for straightness.
