Practical repair guides for common washer, dryer, and refrigerator problems, including what to check first and when to call for service.

Washer Won't Drain

A washer that will not drain is usually caused by a blockage or a failed drain-related component.

A dryer that runs but does not heat is usually caused by restricted airflow, a blown safety fuse, or a failed heating component.

A refrigerator that is not cooling properly can be caused by anything from dirty coils to a major sealed-system failure.

A loud washer spin cycle can be caused by a simple unbalanced load or a serious internal failure.
