Water leak after de-winterize

[workingdan]

So i have a water leak coming from the back of my residential refrigerator after de-winterizing on my 2016 fuzion 414. Any idea how to get to the back of the fridge to check the ice maker line? I guess i didn't do a good job of winterizing it. I choose to blow out my lines instead of using antifreeze.

I'm not familiar with your coach, but on most of the Montanas I have seen with the residential fridge there is a metal "strap" horizontally across the front between the top and bottom doors, attached at the sides of the fridge with bolts.

Thanks for the reply, i guess i should have said how do i get access to the back without being able to pull it out of the enclosure. My counter is in front of the refrigerator. Im heading back up to the camper today and im going to measure to see if it will come out with the doors off. I would hope they left room to get it out without removing the slide.

Looks like i can remove freezer door and move fridge out enough to gain access to the back of the fridge. I just need some wood to make floor level with the slideout.

You might also consider dissemble of the theatre seat. If I recall, the seats are mounted but the center section can be removed easily. During our PDI this was done for me. After that if the seat section next to the fridge could be removed more easily, you might get the access you need behind it.

Finally pulled fridge out and found the leak. Looks like something happened to the water solenoid. Probably froze. Have to run to appliance parts shop.

Glad to hear you found it, after you get it replaced I would suggest you develop a winterizing plan for that Frig. If I recall from the diagram John posted it could get a little tricky, especially since not easy to get to the back of the frig. Now your reward is to get out and camp

Yes better winterizing plan is a must. Never being in freezing temps would be a good plan lol. 10 more years before that can happen.
