Refrigerator Repair
A refrigerator that stops cooling puts everything inside at risk. Food in a closed refrigerator generally stays safe for about four hours without power or cooling, so it pays to act quickly.

Do this right now
- Keep the doors closed as much as possible
- Check the plug, outlet and breaker
- Make sure the temperature dial wasn't bumped
- Clear anything blocking the vents inside
- Move perishables to a cooler with ice if repair will take a while
Warning signs
- Fridge or freezer feels warm
- The compressor clicks on and off or doesn't run
- Water pooling under or inside the fridge
- Ice buildup on the back wall of the freezer
- Loud buzzing, grinding or clicking
What the appliance repair technician will do
A technician will check the condenser fan, evaporator fan, start relay, defrost system, thermostat and sealed system to find why it's not cooling.
What affects the price
Fans, relays and defrost parts are common, moderate repairs. Sealed-system repairs (compressor, refrigerant leaks) are expensive and sometimes cost more than a new fridge. Providers set their own prices, so ask for any service-call or inspection fee and an estimate first.
Safety first
- Smell gas? Leave now and call your gas utility or 911 from outside. Don't use switches or the appliance.
- Burning smell, smoke or sparks? Turn the appliance off and unplug it or shut off its breaker.
- Water near an appliance's wiring? Shut off power at the breaker before touching it.
