From a quiet hum to dead silence, we find the real cause
Common Refrigerator Problems We Repair
Most refrigerator breakdowns come down to a short list of parts. Here's what usually causes each symptom.
Not cooling at all
Often a dirty condenser coil, a failed compressor, or a low refrigerant seal starving the whole system.
Fridge cold, freezer warm (or reverse)
Usually a failing evaporator fan or a defrost system that's stuck, blocking airflow between compartments.
Loud humming or clicking
A failing compressor relay or a fan motor hitting ice buildup — both are quick to diagnose in person.
Water leaking onto the floor
A clogged or frozen defrost drain line is the most common cause, followed by a worn door gasket.
Ice maker not working
A jammed water inlet valve, a frozen fill tube, or a failed module — see our ice maker repair page.
Door won't seal properly
A worn or torn gasket lets warm air in, which raises your energy bill and makes the compressor work harder.
Signs You Need Refrigerator Repair Now, Not Later
Food is spoiling faster than usual. Even a slight temperature rise shortens how long groceries last — a sign the cooling system is struggling.
The motor runs constantly. A fridge that never cycles off is working overtime, usually because it can't reach its target temperature.
It's over 10 years old and acting up. Past that age, a second or third repair often costs more than it's worth — we'll tell you honestly which makes sense.
You see frost inside the fresh food section. That usually points to a seal or defrost problem, not just cold air escaping normally.

Is Your Refrigerator Worth Fixing?
Repair usually makes sense when:
- The fridge is under 8–10 years old
- The repair costs less than half of a new unit
- This is the first major repair it's needed
- It's a premium built-in model you'd rather keep
Replacing may make more sense when:
- It's over 12–15 years old
- The compressor has failed more than once
- Energy bills have risen noticeably
- Repair costs approach the price of a new fridge
