The Drip Pan is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. Located beneath the refrigerator, it collects and holds water that drips from the defrost system, preventing it from leaking onto the floor.

Symptoms of a bad drip pan include:

  • Water pooling under the refrigerator
  • Visible cracks, holes, or warping in the pan
  • Mold or mildew growth in the pan
  • Unpleasant odors emanating from the refrigerator base

Once you get the fan shroud out you can then pull the pan out and replace. Reassemble the unit in reverse.
