How to repair a leaking refrigerator with top mount freezer :
If your refrigerator leaking water from the freezer section in to the refrigerator most likely you have a frozen drain line .
Here is couple simple steps how to repair it.
STEP 1
Unplug the refrigerator
Empty the freezer
Remove couple screws holding floor cover , back cover and fan cover. You need to get access to the drain line,
STEP 2
After removing all panels defrost and clean all the ice formed underneath the floor cover:
Remove all ice and clean the floor , you should see something like this :
STEP 3
DEFROSTING AND CLEANING OF THE DRAIN LINE
Usually whole drain pan is cover with ice , please defrost it and using turkey baster or syringe filled with hot water please defrost the drain line. Make sure that the drain line is defrosted completely ( all water drains easily through the drain line. Do NOT USE TO MUCH HOT WATER ( two or three cups should be sufficient to defrost the drain line) if you use to much water you will overfill the drain pan underneath the fridge and it will leak on the floor.
Basically you are all done. Now you do have to decide if your refrigerator needs drain line heater.
Most of the refrigerators will be fine after just defrosting and cleaning the drain line at least for a while. If this happen in your fridge for the first time you dont really need to do anything else just install all covers in revers order . If this happen multiple times already and you had to defrost the line couple of times you can consider installing a DRAIN LINE HEATER . In couple next steps i will explain how to do it.
STEP 4
DRAIN LINE HEATER INSTALLATION
Drain line heater is like an upgrade for your refrigerator. Because it is an universal part there is a lot of different types of the drain line heaters. one of the most common is SUPCO SH201
this heater is string type heater , very simple to install with good quality leads , very flexible.
depending on the refrigerator model you will have to determine how to install the heater. Usually what i do is putting it in half and wrapping whole thing in aluminum sealing tape leaving 2" of open heater LIKE THIS :
DO NOT PUT MORE THAN 1.5" OF THE HEATER INSIDE THE DRAIN LINE, Usually 1" its enough. If drain heater will be to long it could melt the plastic drain line inside the walls of the refrigerator
Now you need to hooked it up to the main defrost heater :
The simplest way to do it is locating main defrost heater terminals and hooking up the drain heater to it. sometimes you do have to extend the wires to accomplish that.
You can use regular wire nuts for all connections.
You need to wire new drain line heater parallel with main heater something like this :
Use zip ties to secure all loose wires.
WITH this type of the connection when main defrost heater turns on also drain line heater is on and defrost any ice buildup in the drain line.
Now you only need to close the patient :-)
NOW THE FLOOR COVER
AND EVAPORATOR FAN COVER
CONGRATULATIONS YOU ARE ALL DONE !!!!!!!

SAMSUNG REFRIGERATOR LEAKING WATER IN THE FRESH FOOD DOOR SECTION
Many models of SAMSUNG refrigerators sooner or later developing a leak in the fresh food section of the refrigerator. This problem is related to a frozen drain line.
Technical background:
Every frost free refrigerator on the market is equipped with some sort of defrost system. Defrost system its necessary to get rid of snow accumulated on the evaporator coils during cooling cycle.
Defrost system usually including : defrost heater , defrost thermostat and some kind of controls ( defrost timers or electronic control boards ).
During the defrost cycle heater heats up the evaporator and melts the snow ( frost) from it. Water from the snow supposed to be collected by the gather under the evaporator and drain through the drain line under the refrigerator where evaporating every day from the drip pan. If the drain line is frozen or clogged all the water starts filling up the gather and eventually overflows it and starts leaking outside ( for example in to the crisper drawers or underneath.
Here is couple steps how to repair this problem:
You will need: phillips screwdriver , flat head screwdriver, excessive moisture kit from Samsung DA82-01415A ,( optional ) evaporator cover DA97-07190G
STEP 1
Empty the refrigerator compartment and remove all shelf including crisper drawers and crisper drawer cover ( lift and pull )
Refrigerator should look like this
STEP 2
Removal of the evaporator cover :
there is 4 screws holding evaporator cover in place
one on the top behind small plastic cover
and three on the bottom :
after removing evaporator cover screws there is 6 small tabs on the edges of the cover marked with small triangles . You need to use flat screwdriver and push it between refrigerator wall and the cover and simultaneously pulling cover away from the wall. If the refrigerator is defrosted it will be very easy if not defrosted pour some hot water through vent holes and around the edges of the cover to melt ice holding everything together. I usually use a big towel on the bottom to catch all the water. You need to pull from the bottom first and work slowly upwards. after all tabs are released gently pull down the cover , there is two plugs behind the cover ( evaporator fan motor and sensor ) just push the tab on the plug and pull.
You should see something like this:
AND HERE IS THE PROBLEM : FROZEN DRAIN LINE
STEP 3
You have to defrost all the ice from the gather and the drain line . I use turkey baster and hot water and I am pouring hot water till all the ice is gone and the drain line draining freely .
Next you have to release the upper evaporator holder tab:
THIS STEP IS VERY IMPORTANT : BE VERY CAREFUL !!!!!!! You need to bend the evaporator lines to get the access to the back of the gather.
release the tab
pull a little bit towards you and up
try to pull it enough to be able to free the bottom of the gather from the back wall. DO NOT FORCE IT. DON'T BRAKE THE EVAPORATOR LINES . DO NOT BEND TO MUCH
you only need 4 or 5 inches from the wall.
now you need to dry the back and the bottom of the gather
excessive moisture kit includes two foam strips , bottom foam pad , drain line heater and two duckbills
install two long foam strips on the edges vertically and the sealing pad underneath
this is how it approximately supposed to look like from the back
Bend the evaporator back in to its original position , lift it a little bit and reinstall:
STEP 4
Install new drain line heater like this :
Long peace goes inside the drain line and wide portion wraps around the defrost heater.
It is all done . reinstall the cover ( don't forget the plugs ) in revers order.
OPTIONAL - in my case i decided to replace the whole evaporator cover because heat damage to the foam. you can skip this if your cover looks good.
STEP 5
Install two new duckbills behind the refrigerator in the compressor compartment. slide the refrigerator out to get to the back of it.
remove all the screws holding the back cover and install two new duckbills :
LIKE THIS :
Reinstall the back cover .
YOU ARE ALL DONE. NO MORE WATER IN THE REFRIGERATOR !!!!!
