My GE Profile Side By Side Refig is freezing up in the bottom. I saw one solution regarding the drain plug, but how do I actually clear the drain? Sticking a close hanger down it? And where does the water go? I've never drained a pan (nor do I see one beneath my refig....
melt it out with hair dryer,slime builds up in the drain i use a steamer to clean out the drain line,if you have apiece of hose or something you can stick over or into the hole and blow it through or a compressor,you can try pouring hot water down the drain hole,sometime it's just ice in there or a plastic wire tie,i wouldn't stick anything metal down there alot of the lines are plastic, whatever you try to do to clear the drain just pour hot water down the hole and if it drains you'll know you cleared it hope this helps

- you need something that can blow out that drain line,slime forms in there or sometime food like a piece of corn falls out of the bag and ends up in the drain,it's not always ice,i use a steamer,it usually takes like 5 seconds and the line is clear, it is a shark super steamer i use it to clean my harley,this thing is great look it up online,it's like 40 bucks

Thanks. I did pour hot tap water + baking soda into the hole, but didn't see anything happen. I've left the frig off for 7 days, still backs up.
