Residential Fridge

Has anybody removed the fridge on a 390BH-60?

The drain tube get blocked up. During the defrost phase because the tube is blocked water builds up under the freezer drawer a periodically overflows and the water leaks on the floor. I did a Google search for Whirlpool freezer leaking or something like that.
Does anybody know how the damn refer is secured?

I had the new drain tube installed last week. took it to my local rv dealer ( billy Sims ) and he replaced it for me. and didn't cost that much about 100 or so.

The problem with the BH floor-plan is the fridge is elevated almost a foot off the floor. I don't know how it is secured so it doesn't come flying out.

Paul,
Remove the gray plastic vent that covers the bottom of the refrigerator (it just pulls off). On mine, there are black plates that are screwed to the bottom of the refrigerator and to the cabinet. I believe that if you remove those that the refrigerator will just slide out. Not 100% sure but just from what I can see, that should allow you to remove it. I noticed on mine the other day that if you push on the top part of the refrigerator that it will rock back and forth. Seems very unstable to me.

I didn't know that they were elevated. Ours is right on the floor. Need to investigate more about this issue. Wonder if at anytime did they start putting the fix on the fridges from factory. if not need to find a vendor for the kit. You'd think they would give them out !

Good job Joe. You might be handy to have around. Even if you're not retired.
