Help! Whirlpool Refigerator water collects

Nov 08, 2004 3 Replies

I have a five year old Whirlpool refigerator, model number ET18GKXGNO.



It works okay, except that water collects in the bottom of the refrigertor. Below the crispers, there is a depression built into the inside bottom, Water collects there and it ices over. If I empty the water it refills. I can sometimes year the refrigertor making a sort of gurgling noise. The water doesnt overflow the depression that I can see.



There arent any other problems that I know of with the fridge.



Does anyone know what causes this and what I can do about it?



Thanks for any help.

Hi,

A clogged or restricted defrost drain can do this, if the defrost water cannot run down the drain it can/will spill out and run inside and settle under the cripsers.
