Phillip March 20, 2024 for Model Number KRMF706ESS01 RC drain tube freezes up every 4 to 6 months causing standing water under drawer and eventually in floor. Have replaced drain pan to upgraded pan with no success Was wondering if part 819043, drain tube heat probe will work? Hot water and or hair dryer just does not get the job done. Thanks for your assistance
1 Answer Phillip, based on the information provided, it sounds like either the drain tube port in the compressor section is partially clogged or there may be a partial blockage in the tubing through the liner. A heater probe could be used to assist in reducing or preventing the frost and water build-up from occurring. However, we would not be able to guarantee the effectiveness as it does sound like there may be a partial blockage. Read More...

David September 09, 2022 for Model Number ED5PHEXN00 Will the 819043 heater probe work with my Whirlpool side-by-side to prevent drain line freezing...or is there a similar part specifically for this refrigerator? Is the defrost heater in this refrigerator a Calrod unit or glass tube? I ask because I think the heater probe only works with the Calrod.
1 Answer David, Thanks for the question!!! This model has a calrod heater and this part will work with any calrod heater. Read More...
Daniel April 30, 2022 for Model Number ET1FHTXMQ03 Ice is freezing up in drain pan, tube and bottom of freezer with some water leakage into the refrigerator section below. I plan on putting in a probe and a defrost thermostat but noticed the drip pan is about an eight of an inch above the plastic bottom of that compartment. Is it supposed to be that way? Also should there be a sealant strip on the inside edges of the freezer cover plate over the coils?
1 Answer Daniel, the spacing can be caused by ice expanding under the drip tray which should be able to be pressed down once the ice is cleared. It is recommended that the ice is cleared using hot tap water from the drip tray all the way through the appliance down to the compressor section. The defrost drain tube in the compressor section would need to be thoroughly cleaned as well. The evaporator cover in the freezer should have a gasket WP2254360 on the left and right sides.
