    2019 Solitude 375res with refrigerator drain not working?

    Have 2019 Solitude 375res It appears the drain hose from the refrigerator condensation pan is plugged. I have blown on the drain and put a wire down it to attempt unclogging.

    By chance is there a valve that needs opened under the camper?

    Any suggestions or advice is welcome.

    Thanks

    I assume this is a Norcold absorption refrigerator? Have you looked at the outside end of the drain tube? Ours had a little plastic thing in the end of it with tiny holes that used to clog up with algae. I just removed the plug and it did fine after that.

    Is it that the pan under the refrigerator is overflowing or is the overflow inside the refrigerator compartment (at the back)?

    Samsungs have a pretty bad reputation for the de-icing drain to freeze up causing an overflow in the refrigerator compartment. You can find lots of YouTube videos about it and some fixes folks have applied.

    Mine froze up twice. The second time I applied a "fix" of copper wire around the heating element and into the drain (also learned on YouTube).

    on edit....
    ah --- didn't realize it was an absorption frig..... moving on.......
