Hi folks,

Bumping up an old thread here to get some advice. I've had the unit for about a year now, and other than the compressor being a bit loud, it works great and stays cold. The one issue is the condenser leaks. Fact is, it's leaked slightly since about when we picked it up, and it hasn't gotten any worse, I'm just now getting around to go about repairing it.

I've attached a picture highlighting where it leaks. It's a small drip, coming from the bottom corner of the condenser. The plating around the area is pretty brittle (either from moisture or age?) and not completely sealed, which allows the drip.

Before I get a refrigerator guy out to look at it, I was wondering if the pros here had any ideas. Is the leak caused by the plating separating, or by something else? And if it's simply the plating, can that be repaired/replaced? I'm not expert on this stuff just trying to get an idea of what's going on....

Thanks in advance!
