Refrigerator Main Components and their Functions
In order to perform repair fixes on your computer, it is crucial that you have the ability to identify the different parts and crucial components of a standard refrigerator unit.

The condenser cools down refrigerant liquid that passes through its coil system. It is also the part of your cooling system where the Freon undergoes extreme pressure levels. The process of cooling the refrigerant liquid causes the condenser coil to increase in temperature and heat up at times.

The evaporator coil handles the cool air that initially passes through the condenser coil. It sits right next to the condenser coil and functions as the primary absorber of heat carried by air traveling through the system. It is commonly called the freezing unit of the refrigerator.

Refrigerator Repair Precaution

Before starting on any repair activity, make sure that the refrigerator is unplugged from the main electrical outlet for safety reasons.

Common Refrigerator Problems and Repair Solutions

Are you unable to make ice cubes or are they simply too small for you to even use? A non-working icemaker may mean that your refrigerator’s water supply is suffering from some form of blockage. There are three trouble spots that need to be assessed to identify if your icemaker is indeed experiencing a blockage problem.

When water pressure is low within the icemaker unit, the inlet may end up being blocked with ice. In this situation, the flowing water freezer even before it reaches the icemaker. A quick fix to this problem is easy removal of ice from the inlet tube. You may not place the components back to their original place and check after a few hours if the icemaker returns to its normal function again.

If your refrigerator’s icemaker is directly connected to your home water supply, the needle hole within the valve may experience clogging issues from time to time. This type of problem is relatively easy to repair since you will only need to clear the blockage once you have identified the saddle valve.

The electric inlet valve located at the back of the refrigerator unit turns the icemaker on and off. Before any replacement is performed, it is best to check that water is actually flowing to it. The water should first be turned off at the saddle valve and then disconnected from the supply tube from the inlet valve. To check water flow, hold the tube over a bucket, and then turn on the saddle valve back on again. If there is water running out of the valve, the problem lies in the inlet valve, which should then be replaced. After replacement, it is best to check for leaks before placing the refrigerator unit back to its original place.

Refrigerator Leakages

Not only do icemakers and water reservoirs create leakage problems. Condensation and melting ice may also cause your fridge to produce excess water, which in turn result in leakage under the refrigerator unit. Such leakages will create puddles of water in both inside and outside the refrigerator unit. Here are a few quick repairs that you can easily perform by yourself.

Check the icemaker and water dispenser for leaks. If you identify a leak in the inlet valve, all you need to do to solve the problem is to tighten the compression nuts. Replacement is necessary if you identify leakage in the plastic or copper tubing.

A badly positioned and tilted fridge can result in water spillage out of the pan which sits directly underneath the unit. By simply leveling the fridge, you resolve the water leakage issue.

A clogged drain tube in the freezer area causes leakage into the refrigerator compartments below or even onto the floor. Unplug the drain tube by removing the cover panel first. You may also need to unscrew the floor panel as well. To melt any ice buildup in the drain tube, use a hair dryer. Remove the melted water and finally clean the drain hole.
