Refrigerator Repairs
Serious problems with your refrigerator are best left to your refrigerator repair professionals. However, there are a few basic steps you can take while you wait for the refrigerator repair services to arrive. Remember to switch off all power supply to your refrigerator, before you attempt to troubleshoot it. Here are a few common situations, and basic refrigerator repairs you can perform to fix these. If your refrigerator seems to have stopped running completely, confirm by switching the light on and off, to see if the refrigerator turns on. Also, check if there is any humming sound coming from the refrigerator. Set the thermostat to a colder reading, and look if there is sufficient power supply to the unit. You can do this by plugging a lamp into the refrigerator's power outlet. If none of these work, then call in a professional refrigerator repair service to look into the problem.
If your refrigerator doesn't seem to cool properly, check if the thermostat is turned to a proper setting. If there is no problem with the thermostat, check if the compressor motor is functioning properly. A compressor motor that is running will make a continuous humming sound. If there is nothing wrong with the compressor motor, you may have a more serious problem on your hands, and need to call in a professional refrigerator repair specialist. If the refrigerator makes a lot of noise, it could be because the fan has become worn out overtime. Other causes of a noisy refrigerator can be the condenser fan motor in case of a self defrosting refrigerator, the defrost timer or the compressor. In case the compressor is making noise, then refrigerator repairs will involve replacing the motor altogether. There are no compressor repairs that can be done to reduce the noise. In case of a noisy condenser fan, clean the fan using a soft brush after unplugging the refrigerator. A noisy defrost timer will have to be replaced.
Other common refrigerator repair problems include freezing of the food in the refrigerator. Check the internal temperature of the appliance, and set it to a reading between 35 and 42 degrees. If the temperature is set to too cold, and you can't change it by turning the thermostat, then you may have a defective thermostat that must be replaced. Reduce the need for refrigerator repairs by undertaking periodic maintenance of your refrigerator. Make sure that the condenser coils are cleaned regularly, and clean out the drain pan often.
