Whirlpool Refrigerator Drain Pan Replacement

Giriş

Use this guide to replace the drain pan in your Whirlpool Refrigerator.

The drain pan collects water from the defrost drain that eventually gets evaporated by the condenser. If your refrigerator is leaking water onto the floor, your drain pan might be bent or broken.

This guide will work for most Whirlpool refrigerators. This guide is written with a model WRS315SDHW refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.

Note: Some photos show the doors removed for clarity purposes. Removing them is not required and will not change the procedure.
