Whirlpool Refrigerator EB9FVHXVB02 Leaking

The Refrigerator Drain Tube is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is the tube responsible for draining condensation and any other moisture that collects at the back of the refrigerator compartment. The drain tube guides liquid to the evaporation pan located below the refrigerator to be evaporated.

Symptoms of a bad drain tube include:

• Water collecting in the back of the refrigerator  
• Musty odors emanating from the refrigerator
• Water leakage from the bottom of the refrigerator

Causes of a bad drain tube can be blockages from food particles or debris, cracks or leaks that prevent proper drainage, or damage due to impact or kinking of the tube over time. 

This OEM replacement part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This refrigerator drip pan, also called an evaporator drain pan, mounts on the base to catch defrost water and allow it to evaporate. Replacing a cracked or warped pan helps prevent puddles and moisture damage around the appliance. What it does:

• Collects water from the defrost cycle and holds it for evaporation using condenser/fan airflow
• Helps keep water off the floor and out of the cabinet base area
• Typical failure symptoms include water under or behind the refrigerator, recurring puddles after a defrost cycle, visible cracks/warping, or musty odors
• Restores proper fit when the original pan is damaged, heat-distorted, or missing

• 1 refrigerator drip pan

• Disconnect power and pull the unit forward to access the rear; wear gloves and use caution around sharp metal edges
• Remove the lower rear access panel; carefully lift and remove the old pan from its supports
• Clean the area; transfer any pads or clips from the old pan if present; seat the new pan fully on the supports/locators so it's level and secure
• Reinstall the rear panel, return the refrigerator to position, restore power, and check for correct placement after the next defrost cycle
