Default Defrost drain continues to freeze up
Model Number: 106.71182100   Brand: Kenmore   Age: 5 - 10 years   

Hi Guys, We bought this refrigerator new from Sears about 6.5 years ago. We never had a problem with it until 3 months ago when we found water on the top shelf and under the crisper.
I then found your repair forum, and from there, I removed the interior freezer panels, thawed the frozen water trough and frozen drain opening using a hair dryer. I then poured hot water through the drain tube which ran immediately into the catch pan underneath the refrig. I also pushed plastic trimmer string through it as well. Then, a month later it froze up again, and I performed the same procedures a second time. Now, another month later, it’s froze up for a third time. I’m about to hang a can under the vent between the freezer & refrig. Is there anything I can do, or buy from you guys, to fix what has turned into a monthly problem? Thank you. Keith
