How do you defrost the coils inside your refrigator
Forum Discussion
It's supposed to do so automatically. However in high humidity they will frost up. The ice is supposed to melt and drain into a tray below the fins. This tray will then drain into a 1/4" tube that feeds into a cup in the outside access compartment. It then evaporates. If that's not working here's a work around.
Use a turkey baster or similar and squirt hot water onto the fins to melt the ice. This will fill up the tray and the excess water will not drain fast enough. If you open the outside access you'll see the 1/4 hose, usually white. There is a small plug in the end of that hose where it feeds into the holding cup. Carefully remove that plug and let the water drain out. When finished, be sure to reinsert that plug into the end of that hose.....you're done....good luck...Dennis
