NOISY

Some units can be noisier than others, but if you notice any sudden different noise, chances are good that something’s going on, either with evaporator fan blades or a variety of other components. The refrigerator fan motor may be in need of replacing when it makes too much noise. You may also notice the fridge is not as cool as it normally is.

LEAKING

Fluid that pools around the bottom of the refrigerator could be bad door gaskets or a wide range of more other issues, from blocked drain lines to failed water inlet valves.

TOO WARM
A refrigerator that won’t cool properly could be caused by many different issues, including a bad evaporator fan motor. Ignoring this problem jeopardizes your food safety and can lead to bigger repair issues in the future. A fridge that won’t keep food cold is not much good to anybody. Replace the air damper, baffle, or diffuser to get cold air back into the fridge.  Temperature control is paramount for refrigerators. Check the evaporator fan motor, temperature sensor, or temperature control switch if your fridge or freezer is too warm.

TOO COLD
If items in your fresh food compartment have ice crystals, check the temperature settings and verify that the air vents aren’t blocked. If the problem persists, Call Us!  When a fridge is too cold, it may mean the air inlet damper is damaged. Too much cold air is entering the fridge. Also check the temperature sensor and control board. If your freezer is too cold, it may mean that you need to replace the temperature sensor or thermistor. It may also be that the air damper is letting in too much cold air, and needs fixing.

Motor Runs Constantly
While some refrigerator compressor motors seem to run a lot, most aren’t continuous. If your compressor never stops humming, it could lead to other issues. Have us troubleshoot your problem simply by calling us for an appointment.

ICEMAKER – NO ICE

If your fridge ice maker quits, inspect the water supply. Check the tubes, filter, and inlet valve at the back of the fridge for breaks or leaks.

WON’T START
Fixing a fridge that will not start begins by checking the relay capacitor, the temperature control, and the electronic control board.

NOT DISPENSING WATER
A broken water inlet valve or water dispenser actuator could be to blame when water is not available from your refrigerator’s water dispenser.

RUNS TOO LONG
A defrost heater and defrost timer will help control the temperature in the refrigerator. If it’s running too long, consider replacing these parts.

Why refrigerators stop working

Some people are curious to know what exactly made their refrigerator stop functioning. Here are some common reasons that fridges break down:

  • The condenser coil stops working. This component cools down refrigerant liquid as it passes through the coil system, where Freon undergoes extreme pressure levels. The coil actually heats up at times during the process of cooling the refrigerant liquid.

  • The evaporator coil stops working. The refrigerator depends on this part to handle cool air that initially passes through the condenser coil. This component is located right next to the condenser coil, acting as the primary heat-absorbing part. This part is also commonly known as the freezing unit.

  • Leakages from the icemaker. If the inlet valve is leaking, the compression nuts need to be tightened. If the plastic or copper tubing is the location of the leakage, those parts will need to be replaced. Leveling your refrigerator and cleaning the drain tube unit can also help resolve water leaking issues.

  • Other icemaker problems. A malfunctioning icemaker can means that the water supply of your refrigerator is suffering from some blockage. We usually check a few common trouble areas to confirm you are experiencing a blockage:

    • The water inlet tube for ice. The inlet can be blocked with ice if the water pressure is low in the icemaker unit, freezing the water that normally flows before it even reaches the icemaker. You’ll need to remove the ice from the inlet tube to resolve this issue.

    • The saddle valve is checked for blockages if your icemaker is directly connected to the home water supply.

    • We also check the electric inlet valve, which controls turning the icemaker on and off. Also, it’s important to make sure water is flowing to it. If the electric inlet valve is the location of the problem, we’ll replace the part and check for leaks to ensure the unit is working before putting the refrigerator back in place.

 Be Safe

If you do decide to attempt to repair your machine yourself, you’ll need to make sure the refrigerator is unplugged and if the unit is a capacitor-type refrigerator, make sure this component is turned off since it stores electricity when the fridge is unplugged. Performing these precautions will help you avoid receiving severe electric shock or electrocution while working on the fridge.

Of course, we highly suggest you call us to completely avoid any risk of injury or improper repairs to the unit. Save time and stress by calling us today!

WHY YOUR REFRIGERATOR STOPPED WORKING

Some people are always curious they want to know why their refrigerator malfunctioned when they least expected it. Below are some of the reasons.

  • When the condenser coil stops working: This component is responsible for cooling down the refrigerant liquid as it passes through extreme pressure levels in the coil system. Most times, the coil can be heated up during this process.

  • When the evaporator coil stops working: Cool air passes through the condenser coil, and the evaporator needs to be able to handle it abruptly. The evaporator is located next to the condenser coil in the refrigerator component. It absorbs heat thereby allow the refrigerator to cool form ice.

  • When the ice-maker leaks: ensure that the compressor nuts are tightened if you notice that there is a leak in the inlet valve. If the leak is coming directly from the plastic or copper tubing, then they will have to be replaced. Water leakages can also be resolved by leveling your refrigerator and cleaning the drain tube regularly also.
