Hi the smell just appeared over a couple of days at first we thought it was a chicken which seem to lose it freshness but despite removing it and cleaning the fridge you can still smell this smell even when the dooris closed.

Our fridge smells when we open the doors. We've cleaned everything we could reach. didn't smell anything when we pend the back. My wife says it smells like chemical or plastic.

Can you describe the smell or relate it to something common? Plastic, burned wires, fishy, rotted meat, etc. Is it only when you open the door or can you smell it outside too? Are the temps normal in the freezer and refer sections? When did the smell suddenly get noticed?

My Maytag refrigerator has a horrible smell when we open the door where it is now smelling even when we do not open door.nothing in frig that is spoiled or spilt.very clean inside .this has happened t

Sure the temperature is in low enough? Sure there is not a dead mouse under or behind the fridge? Or even between food or what looks a closed bag or box? Keep looking what can be causing the smell, We can't help. because we don't have eyes on site

Why does my refrigerator smell so bad?

PUT A BOX OF BAKING SODA IN REFRIGE AND 1 INTO FREEZER ALSO. BUT TAKE EVERYTHING OUT, MAKE SURE NOTHING SPILLED AND IS UNDER A DRAW ROTTING. IF ALL IS CLEAN INSIDE, PULL OUT REFRIDGE IN BOTTOM BACK IS AN EVAPORATOR PAN FOR CONDENSATION, SOMETIMES SOMETHING CRAWLS UP INSIDE GETS TRAPPED AND DIES.

Bad smell from fridge (not mouldy food)?

There is no danger if there is a leak, but the refrigerator will quit cooling. I suspect perhaps you have a dead something underneath or behind the refrigerator. I hope this helps... but I also suspect you have cleared the problem by now.

Sour smell coming from back of fridge on outside

Check the drain pan under unit. Maybe something has got in there. May need to remove the back our go through the front. Can pour a very small amount of bleach our Lysol to kill in the drain pan to kill mold. Hope that helps.

Refrigerator smells horrible , but there is NOTHING spoiled in it.

You might have something smelly in the defrost drain pan. The easiest thing to do would be to take the back off the fridge and see if the defrost drain pan smells bad...if so just clean it out with soap and hot water. don't use anything too strong smelling to clean it though, you don't want your fridge to smell like bleach or pine sol.

Good Luck!
