    Unhappy Water leaking inside my Kenmore refrigerator.

    Help! I have a 6 year old Kenmore refrigerator model 106.70282991 that apparently has a plugged defrost tube or channel. I cannot figure out how to access the tube or channel to attempt to clean it. If someone is familiar with this model, I would appreciate any help.

    Thank you,

    Thank you Jake. I wasn't able to remove the back panel but once I got under the floor panel I thawed everything out, got the drain open and I could hear the water running into the evaporation pan under the refrigerator.
    Thanks again.

It may be iced up, you will have to clear all of the ice and run hot water down the drain hole.
