These are some of the most common refrigerator problems we’ve seen in our clients:
– Refrigerator not cooling: This is a common issue and can be caused by various factors such as a faulty thermostat, malfunctioning compressor, or a problem with the condenser coils.
– Excessive frost buildup: If you notice a significant amount of frost or ice buildup in the freezer compartment, it could be due to a faulty defrost system, including a defrost timer, defrost heater, or defrost thermostat.
– Water leakage: Leaking water inside or around the refrigerator can indicate a problem with the water supply line, defrost drain, or a malfunctioning water dispenser.
– Strange noises: Unusual noises like buzzing, rattling, or grinding sounds could be caused by a faulty fan motor, worn-out condenser coils, or a malfunctioning compressor.
– Ice maker issues: Problems with the ice maker can include failure to make ice, producing small or misshapen ice cubes, or water leaking from the ice maker.
– Faulty door seal: A worn-out or damaged door gasket can result in warm air entering the refrigerator, leading to poor cooling efficiency.
– Unusual odours: Foul odours emanating from the refrigerator can be caused by spoiled food, mould growth, or a malfunctioning defrost system.
– Constant cycling on/off: If your refrigerator frequently cycles on and off, it may indicate an issue with the temperature control thermostat, compressor relay, or overload protector.
Troubleshooting and repairing refrigerators can be complex, and it’s often best to consult a professional appliance technician to diagnose and fix these issues.
Depending on the age and features of your refrigerator, you may wonder if it’s best to repair it or purchase a new one. Call us and we’ll help you figure out what’s best for your needs.
The most common issues we’ve seen and repaired in washing machines include:
– Failure to start: When the washing machine doesn’t start at all, it could be due to a faulty power supply, defective door lock or switch, malfunctioning control board, or a problem with the motor.
– Water leakage: Water leaking from the washing machine can result from damaged hoses, a loose or worn-out door seal, a faulty water inlet valve, or a clogged drain pump or hose.
– Excessive vibration or shaking: If the washing machine vibrates excessively or shakes violently during operation, it may indicate an imbalance in the load, uneven levelling, or worn-out shock absorbers.
– Poor drainage or not draining at all: When water doesn’t drain properly after a cycle, it could be due to a clogged drain pump or filter, a faulty drain pump, or a blocked drain hose.
– Noisy operation: Unusual noises such as grinding, rattling, or squeaking sounds during operation can be caused by a faulty motor coupling, worn-out bearings, a loose drum belt, or objects stuck in the drum.
– Lingering odours: Foul smells can result from mould or mildew growth inside the washing machine, often due to excessive moisture or using low-temperature wash cycles without proper cleaning.
– Inadequate spinning or excessive spinning: If clothes come out overly wet at the end of a cycle, it may indicate a problem with the motor, belt, or drive pulley. On the other hand, if clothes come out too dry and tightly twisted, the spinning cycle might be too aggressive.
– Error codes: Many modern washing machines display error codes to indicate specific issues. These codes can vary depending on the brand and model of the machine, and they usually require referencing the user manual or contacting customer support to troubleshoot the problem accurately.
As with refrigerators, it’s best to consult a professional technician for proper diagnosis and repair of your washing machine issues.
A skilled repair tech will diagnose and fix the issue, or suggest if it’s cheaper for you to buy a new appliance altogether. Call us today to get that sorted out!
The most common problems that can occur in ovens include:
– Oven not heating: If your oven fails to heat up, it could be due to a faulty heating element (either the bake or broil element), a malfunctioning temperature sensor, a defective igniter (for gas ovens), or a problem with the oven control board.
– Uneven heating: When the oven cooks food unevenly, it may indicate issues with the heating elements, temperature sensor, or the oven’s internal thermostat. Improperly placed racks or obstructed airflow can also cause uneven heating.
– Oven not reaching the desired temperature: If the oven does not reach the set temperature, it could be due to a faulty temperature sensor, a malfunctioning thermostat, or issues with the oven control board.
– Malfunctioning doors: Problems with the oven door can include a loose or broken door seal (gasket), a misaligned door hinge, a faulty door latch, or a broken glass window.
– Self-cleaning problems: Self-cleaning ovens can experience issues during the self-cleaning cycle, such as malfunctioning door locks, excessive smoke or odour, or errors in the self-cleaning process.
– Faulty oven controls: Issues with the oven control panel or knobs can result in inaccurate temperature settings, unresponsive buttons, or error messages on the display.
– Malfunctioning oven light: If the oven light does not turn on when the door is opened or the light bulb needs frequent replacement, it could indicate a problem with the light socket or wiring.
– Strange odours or smoke: Unusual odours or smoke coming from the oven can be caused by food spills or residue burning off, a malfunctioning element, or problems with the electrical connections.
Some of these issues can be fixed by following the troubleshooting instructions in the owner’s manual. However, other problems may be complex, requiring an expert.
Oven repairs often involve working with electricity and high temperatures, so it’s key to have the necessary knowledge in order to avoid accidents or further damage to your appliance.
If you’re unsure, please seek help from a professional appliance technician. They’ll diagnose and resolve the problem safely and swiftly.
