Asking yourself, “Why is my fridge not cooling?”? A refrigerator that stops cooling can cause major inconvenience—spoiled food, unpleasant odors, and stress about repairs. If you’ve opened your fridge only to find it not cold enough, you’re not alone. At Express Repair, we specialize in diagnosing and fixing refrigerator issues across Canada, and we’re here to help you understand what might be wrong and what you can do about it.
Dust and debris on the condenser coils reduce your fridge’s efficiency. When these coils can’t release heat properly, your fridge may stop cooling. Cleaning the coils—usually found at the back or bottom of the fridge—can restore function.
The evaporator fan circulates cool air throughout your fridge. If this fan fails, your fridge may stay warm even though the freezer still works. You may hear strange noises or notice uneven temperatures when the fan is malfunctioning.
The thermostat regulates the temperature inside your fridge. If it’s broken or inaccurately calibrated, it might not trigger the cooling cycle when needed.
The compressor is the heart of your refrigerator’s cooling system. If it fails, the fridge won’t cool at all. Diagnosing a compressor issue requires professional expertise.
Modern fridges have electronic control boards that regulate everything. A faulty control board may disrupt cooling even when other components are working correctly.
If your fridge is too full or vents are blocked by food items, air can’t circulate efficiently. This can lead to warmer spots or overall insufficient cooling.
Before calling a technician, try these basic troubleshooting steps:
Check the thermostat setting: Make sure it hasn’t been accidentally turned up.
Ensure power supply: Verify that the fridge is plugged in and there’s no tripped breaker.
Clean the condenser coils: Use a vacuum or brush to remove dust.
Inspect door seals: Worn-out gaskets can let cool air escape.
If none of these solutions work, it’s time to call in the professionals.
