A refrigerator that stops cooling puts every item inside at risk within hours. Our licensed Taunton technicians diagnose the real cause — not just the symptom — and carry the parts to fix most refrigerators the same day you call.
These are the most common signs our Taunton technicians hear about before a refrigerator repair call.
Food staying warmer than it should, even with the thermostat set correctly.
A puddle forming under or inside the fridge, often from a clogged defrost drain.
The compressor never seems to cycle off, running non-stop day and night.
Buzzing, clicking, or rattling sounds coming from the back or bottom of the unit.
Excess ice forming inside, often linked to a failing door seal or defrost heater.
No ice, slow production, or small/hollow cubes coming from the dispenser.
The heart of the cooling system — when it fails, the fridge can't maintain temperature at all.
A cracked or loose gasket lets cold air escape, forcing the compressor to overwork.
Dust-covered coils can't release heat efficiently, reducing cooling performance over time.
Circulates cold air through the fridge — when it stops, cooling becomes uneven or absent.
Electronic faults can cause incorrect temperature readings or erratic cooling cycles.
If your fridge has already stopped cooling, our guide on seven causes we see most often is a good place to start while you wait for a technician.
Tests electrical draw and how long the compressor runs per cycle to catch a sealed-system problem early.
Compares temperatures across the sealed system with a probe to confirm refrigerant is actually flowing correctly.
Manually triggers the defrost cycle to confirm the heater, timer, and thermostat are working together.
Checks gasket suction and door alignment, since a slight gap can mimic a much bigger cooling problem.
Clears the defrost drain and checks the drip pan, the most common source of “mystery” puddles.
