Inland heat is the big factor in Santee. A refrigerator in a garage or a warm kitchen works much harder in July and August than in spring, and a weak start relay, fan or dirty coil tends to fail during the first real heat wave.
Garage-installed refrigerators and freezers are common here, and on a hot afternoon a garage can run far warmer than these units are built for.
- Not Cooling
- Compressor Failure
- Not Staying Cold
- Runs Constantly / Never Cycles Off
- Bottom Drawer Not Cooling
- Refrigerator Gradually Warming Up
- Compressor Overheating and Shutting Off
- Water Dispenser Issue
Reading the symptoms before you call
Freezer cold, fridge warm: think airflow first. A failed evaporator fan, a frozen-over evaporator from a defrost failure, or a stuck damper all produce this pattern. If you hear the compressor running but no fan noise when you press the door switch on the freezer side, the fan is a strong suspect.
Both sections warming up: look at the condenser side. A condenser fan that has stopped, coils packed with dust, or a compressor that clicks on and off without starting (often a start relay) will warm the whole cabinet.
Water on the floor or ice under the crisper drawers: usually a plugged defrost drain, a loose drain pan, or a leaking supply line or water valve. Sheet ice on the back wall of the fresh-food side points the same way.
Frost on food and ice around the door edge: a door gasket that is torn, flattened or not meeting the cabinet, or a door that does not close on its own because the cabinet is out of level.
Clicking every few minutes with no cooling: the compressor is trying to start and the overload is cutting it off. Sometimes the relay is the problem; sometimes the compressor itself is.
