Karen February 19, 2015 for Model Number MBF1953YEB My Maytag refrigerator keeps leaking over the floor (we don't have the incoming water connected) and the bottom of the freezer is a sheet of ice. I have previously cleaned out the freezer drain and it appears to have become blocked yet again. Will this part work for my refrigerator? If not, can you recommend another option?
1 Answer Hello Karen. It sounds like the drain is not cleaned out good. Try cleaning it out again. You can use a probe if needed on the unit. Read More...
Scott October 16, 2014 for Model Number ET21PKXFW01 Will this work on my Whirlpool model # ET21PKXFW01. The drain line keeps freezing up causing water to drip down into the refrigerator around the drain hole and ice builds up around the drain hole area. Thanks
1 Answer Hello Scott, This part 819043 may work on your unit but you need to make certain it cannot contact any plastic inside the freezer compartment. Since it get as hot as the heating element, this could damage the unit beyond repair. Depending on the application, this part may have to be trimmed down shorter. Read More...

Scott J. September 25, 2014 for Model Number KSSS42QDX05 Will this work for my Kitchenaid KSSS42QDX05? If not, will you please advise me of an alternate kit. Also, are there installation instructions included? Thank you
1 Answer Scott, Yes the 819043 defrost heat probe will work in your refrigerator. An easier and less intrusive part is the W10841299 "duck bill" which is installed in the end of the defrost pan drain tube and it's just as effective as the heat probe. Read More...

Mike C August 04, 2014 Will 819043 work on my 2005 whirlpool freezer with the glass tube heater element? I use copper wire on my Kenmore fridge and it works great. I was thinking of wrapping copper on the aluminum reflector surrounding the glass tube element, hoping the refelctor might stay warm enough to warm the copper and keep the drain hole open.
Woody May 05, 2014 for Model Number KENMORE REFRIGERATOR How do I know if I need to use the cylinder tube? Does it go into the hole?
1 Answer Hello Woody. 1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power. 2. Remove evaporator cover. 3. Remove drain pan. NOTE: On plastic liner design, remove nylon drain insert and discard. 4. Defrost the drain and clear any ice from liner bottom and drain hole. 5. Check and remove any foreign objects from drain hole. 6. Re-install drain pan. NOTE: On plastic liner design, place drain insert into drain hole flush with pan. 7. Place heat probe from kit over the heater so that the probe extends down into the drain. 8. Screw clip so that good contact is made with the heater surface. 9. Replace evaporator cover. 10. Remove unit cover (forced air models only). 11. Seal drain to metal cabinet using permagum. 12. Replace unit cover, if present. 13. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power. Read More...
