Drip pan in the back bottom was cracked during shipping and leaked
We had periodic leaks from under the Unit from new, could never figure out where it was coming from. Finally as it began to cause damage to surrounding cabinets, we took the back off and found the multiple cracks in the drip pan. Someone had hand trucked it from the wrong side! It was difficult to figure out the fan removal (it sits in the pan) but push the top forward and pull the bottom back and the fan came out. Then the pan was simple to remove / replace, by reversing the removal procedure, the fan was re installed.

Pan is easy part, fan motor assembly is appliance orgami
Remove back cover Remove drip thing from top to tray in the back Remove fan motor assembly. This is squirrely. Top bends towards you, bottom pushes in to the unit. Not fun. CAREFULLY remove copper tube that rests on drip tray Remove tray - there are clips in the front that get released by screwdriver Clean up Replace new tray Replace copper tube Play with fan motor assembly till it fits. It doesn't look like it's gonna work until it does. See youtube videos on this. Replace drip thing from top to tray - I forgot this one the first time. Replace cover.
This is a simple, but squirrely, repair. Right on the border of easy (because so few tools and steps) and A Bit Difficult because of the patience required.

Every once in while i have a water leak at the bottom of the freezer doors. Is there a drain line that i need to relplace.
For model number MF12569YEBO
Hi Bob,
Thank you for your question. If there is water leaking from the freezer door, there may be a blockage in the drain tube preventing the water from draining. You will need to inspect the drain and clean any debris from it to resolve the issue. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Hi - we have ice build up in our freezer (bottom) model. We just replaced the drip pan unit (tubes) but we are still getting ice build up in the freezer. Now we're thinking there must be something going on with the actual drip pan? Your thoughts? According to website replacement is easy. Do you think this is the issue and is there a how-to- video? Thank you!

Hello Thomas, Thank you for contacting us. I suggest checking the following parts: PS11755733 Electronic Control Board, PS12584385 HARNS-WIRE, and PS3651266 Freezer Door Gasket - Black. You can test the electrical parts with a multimeter for continuity and inspect the freezer door gasket for signs of visible damage. I hope this helps!

Water leaks on floor on both corners on front of refrigerator by freezes door. What causes this?
For model number G16SDRXXQ06
Hi James,
Thank you for your question. If there is water leaking from the refrigerator, the drain tube may be clogged with food debris and you will need to clean it to see if this fixes the issue. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Have a problem with water leaking from bottom which is probably stopped up drain funnel. While researching i saw a replacement drain tube that eliminated the funnel, pn/ps8759745. I know i can clean this part as a temporary fix, but i have been trying to find the replacement drain tube that eliminates the problem, but i haven't had any luck. The kit i saw contained two different tubes for different size refrigerators, and the gasket to adapt the new tube where the funnel is now mounted. Are you familiar with this? Thanks.Tony
