Norcold ?

Always seems to be alot of water in the evaperator pan on our 2011 with the norcold refrigerator that if pulling down the road would spill out into the compartment. Anyone else have this problem or is it something Im doing wrong?

Make sure the pan's grain hose is not plugged.

As Camper4 indicated make sure your hose is unblocked and not kinked. Also make sure it is connected and that the discharge end is outside the trailer and pointed down and away from the rig. Good luck. Dennis

Drain hose must be open since it drains down to the evaperator pan but pan just stays full all the time, not talking about the drip tray in frig. Thanks

The newer 4 door units and probably 2 doors have exactly that, an evaporator pan. If it is full then chances are that the weather in your area has been a bit wet and it isn't evaporating. I have had this situation several times in the recent past and it has been very wet weather. I just take a sponge and soak it up and ring it out on the ground till the tray is empty. In fact after reading this post I went and looked and have the same situation this moment. The older units had a hose that stuck the vent covers and often got brittle and broke off from exposure to the sun. I don't usually have a problem with this when the weather dries up a bit... Dave

Thanks Exnavdiver, yes it has been wet/damp here in Florida so maybe that is the reason.
