I've tried to remove but can't. I've now resorted to soaking up the liquid in the reservoir with kitchen roll then spraying with general household cleaner and once again mopping up with kitchen roll. You could try a weak solution of bleach or a mixture of bicarb and water instead of general purpose spray

I don't have a solution but I have the same problem with my Beka fridge. How can I clean the smelly reservoir if I can't get it out?

Bush ME5585UCL Fridge drip tray is filling with condensate.

Question edited for clarity and better English.

It is brand new from a shop? If it is, it is under warranty. Or you purchased it on the secondhand market?

In normal circumstances condensate from the defrosting cycle drops into a narrow gutter, to a hole and a tube to a tray on top of the compressor where it evaporates into the surrounding atmosphere. This is your fridge, it is dinky compared to my Canadian fridge, but I know British fridges well. I see a ledge at the bottom and what looks like a drain hole on the left side. Is there a hole in the bottom that is blocked? You should see the pipe at the rear behind the fridge. It is common for them to block. Clean it with wire, and put a teaspoon of bleach down it every couple of months

How to access and remove drip pan from Samsung 3 door refrigerator? Model is FGBH2866PF

There is a condensate tray under the evaporator coil inside the fridge and it can get moldy, It has a hose that runs down the back side to a tray that is under the frame. You should be able to see it from the back side. The interior one is hard to get to an requires removing interior plastic pieces.

We have a rls175 hotpoint larder fridge which is about 10 years old. The water is getting to the drip tray through the drain hole at the back of the fridge, but once there is not evaporating.

The drip tray should be firmly fixed to the top of the compressor unit - that gets quite warm during each cooling cycle. At the end of each cooling cycle the warming panel is switched on for a short time to melt the frost so the water drips into the tray shortly after the most heat is available to evaporate it and shortly after that the tray should be dry.

How can such a simple system fail?
Perhaps the tray is loose, perhaps the fridge is sited in a draught or perhaps there is a moist atmosphere in the fridge creating more frost and therefore too much water.

How do I remove the plastic drip tray from behind my Wesitnghouse Aurora Fridge Freezer.

we had a really bad smell coming from the back of our westinghouse aurora. and yes found it to be emanating from drip tray at the back. To remove this we had to undo 4 clips at the base of black motor thingy, that the plastic drip box sits on. Then we were able to lift whole thing a bit ,(10mm up and 50mm out, approx) so we could tilt everything forward and sweeze and wiggle tray out. then cleaned with bleach. also we unblocked hole inside fridge that allows water to drip into drip tray at back.

Milk which was spilled in the fridge has dripped into the drip tray behind the fridge and has created the most awful smell. Can the tray be removed for cleaning and if so how?

Yes, usually the tray can be removed for cleaning. You will have to pull the fridge out, unplug power, remove the rear access cover. Then you should see the evaporator / condensate tray and how to remove it.

Fridge drip tray removal

remove toe kick on bottom of fridge, should be some screws on both sides. tray slides out, maybe not all the way dont force, there is a float mechanism that will stop it from coming out all the way, use some paper towels or rags to soak up the stagnant water, this pan should have a heater hooked up to it to evaporate the water, the installer should have hooked this up on installation, they dont hook it up at the factory to get a better EER out the factory door, just trace back to the pan and hook up any unplugged wires going to it, good luck

Cleaning drip tray.

I have just removed the drip tray from my fridge freezer and it was relatively easy.

Do not remove the compressor unit.

The drip tray is held in place by a metal clasp which is welded to the top of the compressor. The clasp is a flat piece of metal which must physically twisted to align with the key way in the plastic drip tray. I used thin pair of pliers to grip the clasp and twist it clockwise to line up with the tray key way. The tray then has to be carefully manouvred off the compressor so as not to cause damage or spill it foul smelling contents. This I managed to achieve fairly easily.

Clean out and install then twist the clasp to clamp the tray into position. I don't know what would happen if you didnt lock the tray back in position as it does not seem capable of falling off on its own and it would be easier to remove next time.

Hope this makes sense
Mark
