      All Appliantology tech members are invited to join in this workshop on all things Appliantological. 
      We have a special session planned for this one. Instead of the usual Show 'n Tell on a technical topic, we're going to post tech sheets in the comments to this Calendar Event (scroll down to see what's posted so far) and ask specific questions that can only be answered by reading the tech sheet. If you at least try to answer the questions beforehand, you'll get a lot more out of it. The tech sheet and the questions are posted in the comments section below.
      Your mission, if you should choose to accept it, is to check out the questions for each one and try to answer them ahead of time. Then come to the Dojo to see how well you did! 
      Who: This workshop is only available to tech members at Appliantology.
      When: Saturday, April 27 @10:00 AM Eastern Time.
      Where: Online via Zoom
      How:

Kenmore Model 9751714 Dripping water from freezer into fridge area


Pochie

Recommended Posts

I purchased this new in December 1996. The only repair I had to make is a new water inlet valve in August 2019.  A month or so ago I noticed pools of water on the bottom trays in the fridge. So far I have fooled with the temp/air settings and have placed a bowl to the left of center in the fridge to collect the water, which now freezes so I empty it every 3-4 weeks. My icemaker works well. Thanks for any information.

A full model number helps. I assume it's a 106.9751714?

The dripping water is probably a defrost water from the freezer Evaporator area. The defrost happens every 8-10 hours, and if the drain is clogged up, the water will drip down into the fresh food section.

Remove everything from the freezer and pour some warm/hot water under the Evaporator coil. If the water is not going down, clear the drain tube. The clog could actually be on the bottom behind the refrigerator near the compressor. Make sure the water easily flows down into the defrost pan by the compressor.
