Every minute a person is faced with various household appliances. Without many, he simply cannot imagine his life - a TV, computer, coffee maker, refrigerator. And if something suddenly becomes worthless, breaks down, then life loses its usual comfort, it is annoying, unsettling.
The first thing that comes to the mind of a Russian person with a breakdown of household appliances is to try to fix the problems on their own. But not everything is as simple as it seems at first glance. For example, repairing a refrigerator with your own hands is possible only if minor problems occur. This household device only looks simple and understandable, but the principle of its operation and the device are very complex.
What refrigerator problems can you fix yourself
During the operation of any household appliances, including the refrigerator, small malfunctions are sure to arise, which can be fixed independently, at home. There may be problems with the power supply in the refrigerator, a temperature mismatch with the set cooling mode, the light bulb may burn out or an unpleasant odor may appear in the freezer, or the device suddenly starts to make a very loud noise during operation. All these malfunctions are often caused by the usual inattention of the owner and can be eliminated very easily.
If the refrigerator does not work, the light bulb does not turn on, then, first of all, you need to check the connection to the mains and the presence of current in it. The cause of the failure may be a simple outage.
When the refrigerator does not freeze in accordance with the established temperature regime, the cause may be its overload or a layer of dust accumulated on the condenser (coil). For stable operation and high-quality cooling, the refrigerator requires not only power supply, but also regular care, cleaning not only the internal surfaces, but also the channels that drain the condensate, and the water drain tanks. In addition, when the seal on the door is worn, warm air from the room will enter the chambers of the refrigerator, and interfere with the cooling of products.
If the refrigerator starts to make too loud noises during operation, then you need to check whether the glass and metal containers are correctly placed in the chamber, if the legs of the appliance are loose, or if it touches nearby furniture or walls. The cause of loud work can also be worn out supports under the compressor.
