Refrigerator leaking water there is a problem that must be solved immediately. You don’t have to panic. We have prepared for you two easy solutions on how to fix leaking water problem in your refrigerator Viking VVCSB5423SS.
First solution is levelling refrigerator. Water (actually condensation) is supposed to run from inside the refrigerator into a drain hole, and then into a drip pan underneath, where it evaporates. If the refrigerator is completely level or tipped slightly forward, the water may not be able to flow into the drain. All you have to do to get it working is to adjust the front legs so that the refrigerator tips back slightly. Have a helper tip the fridge slightly back so you can get under it. Unscrew the front legs a couple turns to raise them. Put the refrigerator down. Use a level on the front edge of the refrigerator to make sure the legs are even. Partially open the door and walk away. It should close by itself now.
Second solution is to clean drain hole. If adjusting the legs doesn’t stop water from leaking, then you have to clear the drain hole. It gets clogged with food particles that can prevent water from being drained, leading to an overflow and leakage. Following steps help you to clean drain hole in refrigerator Viking. Locate the drain tubes at the rear of the refrigerator or freezer.Push a small plastic tube or a pipe cleaner through the tubes. Pour a mild solution of soapy water and ammonia down the drain tube to kill bacteria. If you have a turkey baster or syringe, use it to squeeze water into the hole. Check the drain pan under the refrigerator, on the left side, by removing the front grill. If the soapy water hasn’t drained into it, you still have a problem. Working inside the refrigerator, push the tube or pipe cleaner into and through the drain tube. Flush the hole with water again. You should now find water in the pan. If you do, don’t worry; it evaporates.
