Brown Leak

Has anyone ever seen this before?

It’s a brown syrup liquid coming from above the fridge or from the top of fridge. It surfaced within the last 3 weeks.

We professionally closed the trailer and door was open for duration of storage time.

We did have our road recently paved and I wonder if the heavy machinery could have disturbed something.

Any thoughts?

I would check the vent for old wasp nests. I would also check the roof for leaks.

Check the back of the fridge and see if the cooling system tubes are leaking.

How old is your rig?

Taste the brown stuff. Maybe you have a honey bee colony.

Hopefully I am wrong on this...
When I had similar color liquid it was when the roof had a leak. I don't know if it is the glue, the wood or what but this was leaking down my walls.

Does the freezer have the same stuff in it? The refrigerator needs replaced. It has a hole in the lining somewhere letting moisture in.

I've heard this as well. I think it's the insulation and moisture combo...but don't quote me on that.

I'd pull it out and check. Hopefully, it's just isolated to the fridge.
