Troubleshooting section of manual (Model TPX2 4PRYFBB) sites "drain in bottom of freezer clogged" as possible cause of "water on kitchen floor or on bottom of the freezer."

Nothing in manual, however, on location of drain or how to clean. I see no evidence of drain anywhere. Can you tell me where it is?

I do not know this particular fridge, but just try to assist you...

Normally the drain is somewhere against the rearwall of a fridge. Do not use a metal pin once you find the hole, but use something made from wood (kebab-skewer) or plastic.

Advice : check the rear : the water outlet is normally located above the compressor to allow the leakwater to evaporate again.

Note : often water assembling in the fridge indicates a leaking door gasket , so please check that too !

Thanks. I found it behind a plastic covering about 18 inches up the rear wall. Sure enough, it was frozen solid. I removed all ice, then tried to inject hot water plus baking soda in the hole (not very successfully). The drain pan filled with the hot water, then slowly drained, so I thought the problem was solved. This morning, however, the pan was half full with ice and the drain hole appeared frozen over. Is there a plan B? Is there something I can use as a "snake" to get a clog out in the line? I appreciate your initial answer (the only one I got), as I was on the verge of scheduling a service call.
