Common Problems with Home Appliances & How to Fix Them

While our team is always happy to come to your house and perform professional home appliance repairs, we are even happier to help you find ways to save money. There are a few common home appliance issues that you can probably fix on your own. All you need is a little elbow grease of your own and our knowledge shared here.

  • Jammed garbage disposal: There is a long list of things you can put down your garbage disposal, and an equally long list of things you cannot. If one of these common “no disposal” items – including eggshells, coffee grounds, stringy vegetables, cooking grease, etc. – is placed into your garbage disposal, it can jam it and prevent it from switching back on. To fix it, shut off the garbage disposal and carefully remove any waste you can reach easily. Next, look under your sink, find the reset button on your garbage disposal, and click it in. Run water down your sink and try the disposal again. It should start running again. If it does not, call us.
  • Strange washing machine odor: Have you noticed that your clothing sometimes comes out of your washing machine with a strange odor on it? This bad smell might be similar to a moldy or musty odor. To help get rid of it yourself, leave the door open each time you run a wash to let it air out and dry. You can also run the machine with nothing but hot water and a mix of baking soda and white vinegar, which will power blast away the source of the smell in most cases.
  • Teetering washing machine: Speaking of washing machines, does your start to teeter whenever it runs? A washing machine that rocks each time it is used is probably no longer standing levelly on the ground. Closely examine the legs of the washing machine to see if any should be lengthened or shortened to improve balance. If it only wobbles sometimes, then that could be an issue with the way the laundry has been arranged inside of it. Experiment by rearranging the clothes you have loaded to create a more even weight distribution. If that does not work, schedule a repair with Mr. Appliance of Hackensack. The problem could be a loose drum, which can start to destroy other components as it throws its weight around.
  • Unlit gas stove: When you try to use your gas stovetop, you will have to turn a knob until it ignites the corresponding burner. If the burner never ignites and you only hear a clicking sound, then there is a problem with the igniter or pilot light, depending on the type of stove you have in your kitchen. Check that all burner caps are placed correctly, as some models will not ignite if they aren’t. You should also gently clean around the igniter since debris can clog it and prevent ignition. If you have an extinguished pilot light, you can lift the stovetop range and relight it with a match. Please do not attempt any stove repairs or maintenance you do not feel safe performing. It is better to stay safer and let our professionals fix it instead.
  • Warm refrigerator: A refrigerator that feels suspiciously warm when you open the door could be experiencing a problem with its coils. Dust buildup on the coils running along the back of the fridge can hurt the fridge’s efficiency, resulting in it struggling to match your set temperature. With a vacuum or good brush, you can dust the coils, after unplugging it, of course. If that does not fix the problem, get us on the phone to fix it. Otherwise, you could be putting your food and beverages in your refrigerator at risk of spoiling and becoming dangerous to consume due to sitting in an unsafe temperature.
