This would not be normal. Whoever if the fridge is running and keeping good temperature I would have to say that it's likely that something was spilled in the fridge. If it's struggling to cool then you might have a damaged refrigerant line, and this would most certainly mean an emanate fridge failure.I suggest that you clean and replace the drip tray, and inspect the inside of the fridge for any spilled materials. I would also suggest that you look closely for any small rodent **** like mice. Mice can carry food and use this dark place for a home.

Water leaks

Need more information
Does the refridgerator have plumbing for water/ ice? Is the water connected? Check that fittings are tight and not leaking.

How old is your machine? Older refridgerator have a drip pan in order to be frost free. Drip pan could be not in correctly or the hose from compressor is not flowing to drip pan.

Is the refridge level?

My tuc-48 2 door undercounter refridge is dripping water from the drain lines even after cleaning all the crud out of the copper elbow

try taking a piece if small wire and run it up the drain lines. the clog is probably in the evaporators and this could break it free.

How do you clean the icemaker tray on the front of the refridge? Can it be removed?

If you're referring to the the drip pan that catches ice or water your glass doesn't, yes, they can be removed by pulling straight up. If never done, may be a little stuck from splashes of soda and stuff sticking it down.

Water was found leaking from my oil pan and car is overheating. I have a 95 Mazda MX3

Is it leaking FROM the oil pan, or dripping OFF the oil pan?

If its dripping OFF the oil pan, that leads me to beleive you have a coolant leak somewhere. Check the coolant level. Check for leaks.

Check your oil, if the oil is milky/coffee colored. Or if your coolant looks kinda nasty, you may be looking at a headgasket.

The water is coming out on the bottom

Hello and Welcome to FixYa!
Actually the leaking water is from the evaporator coil unit.... Under normal conditions,Self-defrost refrigerators usually dispose the water generated during the defrost cycle through a tube or channel that directs the water a pan (Known as Drip pan), commonly below the refrigerator unit....
The channel or tube is clogged and the water is leaking to the refrigerator unit, so you need to clear that contamination....Once the blockage is removed, the generated water will move through that channel/tube directly to the drip pan and there will no water on the top shelf in the refrigerator compartment. This is all you need to do....


Best of Luck,

Water pools under the veggie crisper

yoor problem is with the drain, when your refrig goes into self defrost the water melted from the defrost needs some where to go. There is a drain for this purpose....it is normally a tube that leads from the rear of freezer to pan by compressor. when this gets blocked the water has nowhere to go except into the freezer vent and down the bottom of the refridge compartment. you will need to clear the blockage in the drain tube...if you are still haveing a problem i can tell you how.

Drip pan needs emptying; had repairman out for other issues, now fridge keeps overflowing

The accumulated ice you saw is of course the source of the water. The refrigerator will eventually rid itself of the excess ice and the problem will therefore disappear on it's own after a while. The drip pan is normally filled with only a small amount of water, and that is dried up by the condenser cooling fan under the fridge. The pan is removable from most units, but not without making a mess. I suppose you can make and clean up the mess one time and be done with it.

Frigidaire refridge has water at bottom of interior pan is dry where is water coming from?

WHEN THE REFRIGERATOR GOES THROUGH ITS DEFROST CYCLE IT PRODUCES MOISTURE WHICH COLLECTS IN THIS PAN. THIS IS NORMAL. ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS DUMP THIS AND CHECK EVERY FEW MONTHS. HOPE THIS HELPS. GOOD LUCK.
