This hole is usually located under evaporator coils. One of the way is to trace the drain tube (#93 at the diagram).

Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for General Electric PFS22SBSCSS BOTTOM MOUNT REFRIGERATOR | AppliancePartsPros.com

ya found 93 in bottom back of frig no visible drain hole on inside of freezer looks like have to remove sliding door panel ,shelves, icemaker,ice maker power panel and back panel of freezer to get to drain area( poor design!) Is it possible to power down freezer for 48 hrs then blow out drain tube from backside to clear drain hole which is i'm guessing is behind back panel below defrost coils.Or remove panel :mad: clear drain and hang piece of #12 copper wire off defrost coil to prevent it clogging again?
