Maytag Refrigerator French Door Freezer Ice Around The Fan

Hi i have a maytag model mff2558veb3 french door bottom freezer that has started leaking water from the right side bottom of the freeer door.

Maytag refrigerator french door freezer ice around the fan.

Wedge the door to keep it open for the defrost procedure. If the evaporator fan is not working the freezer or refrigerator will not cool adequately t to determine if the evaporator fan motor is defective try turning the fan blade by hand. This last week i have noticed that ice is building in the bottom of the freezer it s as if water is leaking from somewhere and pooling to the bottom of the freezer and freezing. Leave everything sit until all the ice has melted this is a good time to wipe down the inside of fridge.

Lay a deep pan or similar at the bottom of the refrigerator to catch the water when the ice melts. It has the ice and water on the door as well. An improper seal of the gaskets on the refrigerator or freezer doors could also cause humidity to form. Unplug the refrigerator from power and remove any drawers or shelves.

Blocked vents can cause a couple of different issues including moisture build up or excessive frost. I read some of the other posts and got all the water and ice out of the freezer bottom and about 7 8 hours later saw water puddling on the floor and in the freezer. Check the seal around the outside doors and the freezer door to make sure nothing is obstructing the gasket seal.
