Quick troubleshooter
What's wrong with your appliance?
Pick your appliance and what it’s doing. You’ll see the most likely causes, one safe thing to try first, and a one-tap way to book the repair.
What is your refrigerator doing?
Refrigerator Not Cooling
Most likely causes
- Evaporator coil iced over because the defrost system failed
- Evaporator or condenser fan motor stopped
- Dirty condenser coils or a failing compressor start relay
Try this first: Make sure nothing is blocking the vents inside the freezer, and vacuum the coils at the bottom or back if you can reach them. If it’s still warm after a few hours, call me.
Freezer Cold But Fridge Warm
Most likely causes
- Frozen evaporator coil blocking airflow to the fridge side
- Failed evaporator fan
- Stuck air damper between freezer and fridge
Try this first: Listen inside the freezer with the door switch pressed. If you hear no fan, that’s a strong clue for the technician.
Refrigerator Leaking Water
Most likely causes
- Clogged defrost drain freezing over
- Cracked or loose water line to the ice maker
- Failed water inlet valve
Try this first: Turn off the water supply valve behind the fridge to stop the leak, and dry the floor to protect it.
What is your ice maker or freezer doing?
Ice Maker Not Making Ice
Most likely causes
- Frozen water fill tube
- Failed water inlet valve or clogged filter
- Faulty ice maker module
Try this first: Check that the ice maker is switched on and the bail arm or sensor isn’t in the off position, and replace an overdue water filter.
Ice Maker Freezing Up
Most likely causes
- Ice buildup in the door compartment (common on some Samsung models)
- Door seal letting warm air in
- Fill valve dripping and over-filling the tray
Try this first: Empty the ice bucket and break up clumps. If the ice keeps welding together, the cause needs fixing.
Freezer Not Freezing
Most likely causes
- Defrost failure icing over the coil
- Evaporator or condenser fan failure
- Compressor start relay or control fault
Try this first: Keep the door closed and move frozen food to a cooler while you wait for service.
What is your washer doing?
Washer Not Draining
Most likely causes
- Clogged drain pump or pump filter
- Kinked or blocked drain hose
- Failed drain pump motor
Try this first: On a front-loader, place towels down and open the small pump filter door at the bottom front to check for socks and coins.
Washer Not Spinning
Most likely causes
- Lid lock or door lock not engaging
- Worn or broken drive belt
- Motor control board fault
Try this first: Redistribute the load and run a drain and spin cycle. If it still won’t spin, call me.
Washer Leaking Water
Most likely causes
- Torn front-loader door boot
- Loose or cracked inlet or drain hose
- Pump seal leak
Try this first: Turn off the hot and cold water valves behind the washer until it’s repaired.
What is your dryer doing?
Dryer Not Heating
Most likely causes
- Heating element or thermal fuse (electric)
- Igniter or gas valve coils (gas)
- Cycling thermostat failure
Try this first: Clean the lint screen and check that the outside vent flap opens when the dryer runs. Restricted airflow is a common root cause.
Dryer Won't Start
Most likely causes
- Blown thermal fuse
- Door switch or start switch failure
- Broken drive belt or failed motor
Try this first: Check the breaker. Electric dryers use a double breaker, and one half can trip on its own.
Dryer Takes Too Long To Dry
Most likely causes
- Clogged vent or lint buildup
- Weak heating element
- Faulty moisture sensor
Try this first: Run the dryer and feel the air at the outside vent. Weak airflow means the vent needs attention before parts fail.
What is your dishwasher doing?
Dishwasher Not Draining
Most likely causes
- Clogged filter or drain pump
- Kinked drain hose
- Clogged garbage disposal or knockout plug left in
Try this first: Remove and rinse the filter at the bottom of the tub, then run the garbage disposal before starting the dishwasher again.
Dishwasher Not Cleaning Well
Most likely causes
- Hard water scale in the spray arms
- Weak wash motor or low water fill
- Inlet valve partly clogged
Try this first: Pull the spray arms and clear the holes with a toothpick, and always use rinse aid with East Valley water.
Dishwasher Leaking
Most likely causes
- Worn door gasket
- Pump or motor seal leak
- Loose inlet or drain connection
Try this first: Use only dishwasher detergent (dish soap foams over), and dry the floor to check where the water appears first.
What is your oven or range doing?
Oven Not Heating
Most likely causes
- Weak gas igniter (glows but won't light)
- Burned-out bake element (electric)
- Temperature sensor or control board fault
Try this first: On electric ovens, look at the bake element for blisters or breaks. Don’t touch it until the oven has cooled down.
Gas Burner Won't Light
Most likely causes
- Clogged burner ports
- Wet or cracked spark igniter
- Spark module or switch fault
Try this first: Make sure the burner cap is seated correctly. If you ever smell gas, leave the house and call your gas company first.
Oven Temperature Is Off
Most likely causes
- Failing temperature sensor
- Control board needs calibration
- Door gasket letting heat escape
Try this first: An inexpensive oven thermometer will tell you how far off it is, which helps me diagnose it faster.
What is your garbage disposal doing?
Garbage Disposal Humming But Not Spinning
Most likely causes
- Flywheel jammed by something hard
- Failing motor start winding
- Seized bearings in an older unit
Try this first: Switch it off right away so the motor doesn’t burn out. Never put your hand inside the disposal.
Garbage Disposal Won't Turn On
Most likely causes
- Tripped reset button
- Wall switch or wiring fault
- Burned-out motor
Try this first: With the switch off, press the red reset button on the bottom of the unit once. If it trips again, call me.
Garbage Disposal Leaking
Most likely causes
- Bottom leak: worn internal seals (replacement needed)
- Top leak: sink flange putty or mounting ring
- Side leak: dishwasher or drain connections
Try this first: Put a dry paper towel under each connection, then run water. The first one to get wet shows where it’s coming from.

How much is a service call for appliance repair?
$65, or $125 for stacked washer and dryer units. That covers the trip and the diagnosis, and it’s waived if you approve the repair.
Do you offer same-day appliance repair?
Same-day and next-day appointments are often available, but I can’t guarantee them. Call or text (480) 292-4746 and I’ll give you the earliest opening. I’m open Monday to Saturday, 9am to 6pm.
What areas do you serve?
Phoenix and the East Valley: Phoenix, Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, Scottsdale and Paradise Valley, Tempe, Queen Creek, San Tan Valley, Apache Junction and Gold Canyon, Florence, and Coolidge. See my service areas.
What appliances do you repair?
Residential refrigerators, freezers and ice makers, washers, dryers, dishwashers, ovens, ranges and cooktops, microwaves and garbage disposals. I don’t work on commercial equipment or wine coolers, and I don’t install new appliances.
Do you offer a warranty on repairs?
Yes. Labor is covered for 1 month, and parts are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
Is it worth repairing an appliance or should I replace it?
A good rule: if the appliance is less than about 10 years old and the repair costs less than half of a comparable new one, repair usually wins. I’ll give you an honest recommendation either way. Sometimes that means telling you not to fix it.
