About three weeks ago water started leaking from the bottom of my Amana freezer-on-the-bottom refrigerator. There was no water inside the refrigerator or freezer compartments, but the freezer was warmer than it should have been. I took the panel off the bottom of the back and found that the (non removable) drain pan was overflowing. I bailed out the pan and cleaned all the coils and everything looked good.

Today it happened again. :( I don't think the problem is a plugged drain, since the drain pan is filling and there is no water inside. So it seems to me that the water is not evaporating from the pan as it should. Looking in the opening at the bottom of the unit in the back, with the panel off, on the left side there is a fan. This seems to be running OK. So can anyone tell me why the water is not evaporating and how to fix this? Thanks!

BTW, the unit is two years old and so out of warranty. I called Amana and they said they couldn't help me and that a service manual was not available.
