If you have noticed water leakage inside your Samsung Refrigerator, and you don’t know where it came from, you likely have an ice buildup in the draining well. It is likely that the old evaporating clip is not doing justice and caused an ice buildup which led to the leakage.

This fix does not require any special skills. As long as you follow the guide with all safety precautions, you will be able to perform a successful replacement of the evaporating clip in your Samsung Refrigerator.

Problem only resolved for about 6 months post clip replacement. Now every 2 months back to defrosting my refrigerator, under the crisper drawer. Now the entire section of the drain is frozen. Very frustraing.
