The biggest problem is figuring out how to get a seal onto the tube so you can clear it Once clear it is a good idea to flush it out with a 10% bleach solution. This will kill any crud growing in the tube and hopefully also let you flush it out. Just be sure that you do not overflow the drip tray. Also wear old clothes, at least I have to as I always seem to get some of the bleach on my clothes. Thanks denman! Your suggestions really helped. I had this issue, and was able to get everything de-iced and working once again. The best part is, no more ice on the bottom! I'm not sure if this is exactly what you said to do, but I removed the back panel (could see the ice trail coming from it) and there were coils with a pan and a hole down the middle. The whole pan was filled with ice. I popped that out in big peices then got rid of as much water as possible. Then after pouring some boiling water in the tray, I heard it drain once more. Success!

Have had this peculiar problem with our LG refrigerator for the past year. The bottom loading freezer gets a collection of ice at the bottom of the freezer which I have to take out about every 2 weeks. Do not have an ice maker. Have called LG and they just state that I need a repair person to look at. The settings for the refrigerator and freezer are normal and food stays fresh in refrigerator and in freezer food is frozen as normal. I've vacuumed underneath the refrigerator. What gives?
