So, now I will be talking to you about the 5 most often troubles with
fridges.
First is a stuck freezer fan. When you open your fridge and it is running the sound you hear should be like you are hearing now, the fan motor blowing, sometimes what happens is the fan blades get lodged against the side or the fan blade settles so far back that it rubs against the motor and than the blades get stuck and won’t turn
Number two most often troubles with fridges is water leaking from the roof now if it is just tiny drops it can be caused by food put in that is still hot like boiling or items that had boiled and than placed in the refrigerator uncovered, the way to eliminate that is to keep a cover on the food
but if you see heavy drips from the inner portion here
then it might prove that you have a plugged condensate drain line
which is a very often trouble with fridges
Number three most often trouble with fridges is the compressor not
turning on. If you listen at the rear here you can kind of hear the run of
the compressor. So if you don’t hear that noise that low humming noise
that is different from the fan running than your starter might need to be changed out on the compressor.
The number four most often trouble with fridges is torn gaskets how
you stop that from occurring is to wash the seals here often and to wash
the refrigerator surface here regularly where it makes because what happens is sticky foods get stuck in there and than pulling apart from the seal eventually can rip the gasket or wear out the seals so that’s how to
kind of stop it. Every door manufacturer is not the same so you may have to look up your instructions on how to change out your seals some will have screws along the inner part here of the seal in order to replace it different ones will have a press in place channel that the seal gets pushed into
others the whole door portion will pull in half so that you can change the seal so every kind is a little bit different.
And the number five most often trouble with fridges is being out of balance ideally when you release an open fridge door you want it to self close smooth and easy and close completely. You want the fridge to angle towards the back slightly so that condensate drains and remains along the rear of the fridge and drops down into the pan that is on the back at the top of the compressor most often but regardless you want your fridge to aim towards the back just a little if your fridge is wobbling there is most often an adjustment screw here or some refrigerators have a wheel that is rotated here this ones got a wheel that is rotated as you can see one on either side and these can be positioned just by lifting up slightly on the refrigerator and than rotating this either with your hand or with channel locks.
So that is the five most often troubles with fridges.
