If you are talking about the fridge drian, that drain should exit the exterior of the coach to drain thru the vent area. Mine over a short time got brittle and just snapped inside.

Take off the outside grill and using a Hair dryer should thaw it out

Are you parked where the outside temps are below freezing? Is a cold freezing wind hitting that side of the camper? Probably not enough heat being generated by the fridge unit to keep the cavity above freezing.

If the water in your drain tray is freezing or anything else in your frig, you have the cooling level set too high. Nothing should freeze in the frig. I look at mine every morning and adjust cooling level based on the temp in frig and ambient temp. These are not like home refrigerators, you have to interact with them. No set and forget.
