What to Check If Your Fridge Is Not Working Properly?

Though you are not a technician, you will still need to check a few things if your fridge is down. You should do this before you call the technicians in Blacktown, Auburn or Abbotsford providing the repairing services since it will help you to get an idea of what might be wrong in the fridge. Besides, you will be able to take the necessary safety precautions if you check these things beforehand.

Now, let us take a look at the things that you will inspect.

  1. Power Connection

If your fridge is not turning on, before calling the professionals providing fridge repairs in Blacktown, you will need to check the power connector. You will need to switch the connector off and unplug the fridge and if you experience a shock you must not touch the power connector as it indicates a short circuit.

However, if everything is normal, you can plug in another appliance or device in the power point to see if it is running properly. If not, it might be a problem with the point from which the electricity is flowing.

  1. Alignment of Your Fridge

A misalignment of your fridge can cause plenty of problems such as the fridge not turning on or not cooling properly, etc.

So, make sure that the floor is even. If not, you can try placing a carpet or pieces of paperboard at the base of the fridge. But if the problem persists, it means the problem is not with misalignment. Rather, you will need to call the professionals.

  1. Too Many Items

If you keep too many items in your fridge, it might not cool properly. So, remove a few items to check whether the cool air is flowing normally. But if it still does not cool, the problem might be with any of the components inside and you will need to call professionals providing fridge repairs in Auburn.

  1. Dirt and Dust on the Condenser Coils

If you are facing cooling issues, turn off your fridge to check the coils on the back, if at all possible since dirty coils can lead to cooling problems. However, if the fridge is heavy and affixed to the wall, and you find that pulling it is difficult, skip the process and let the repairers do the needful.

  1. Fridge Bulb if It Is Not Turning on

If your fridge is running but the light inside is not turning on, it can either be a problem with the bulb or any of the other components. So, turn off your fridge and unplug the bulb if possible to see whether it has become damaged. Otherwise, as usual, you should leave it to the professionals.

  1. Gasket

When and if you cannot close the door of your fridge, it is surely a problem with the gasket, and you can be assured of it by opening the door of your fridge. However, if the door hinge is damaged or the floor is not flat, the same issue can occur.

But whatever it might be, they have to be repaired by technicians providing fridge repairs in Abbotsford. Also, if you do not feel confident in checking any of these, then don’t, as it is always safe to leave everything in the hands of the professionals.
