Self-diagnosis

Diagnose your issue in seconds

Step 1 — Select appliance
Step 2 — What's the issue?
Step 3 — Your diagnosis
Fridge · Not cooling properly
Dirty coils or worn door seal
Likely Cause

Most commonly caused by dirty condenser coils, a worn door seal, or incorrect temperature settings. Coils accumulate dust over time, forcing the compressor to overwork.

Try This First
  1. 1Pull the fridge from the wall and vacuum the condenser coils on the back or underneath.
  2. 2Test the door seal — close it on a piece of paper; it should hold firmly when pulled.
  3. 3Check temperature settings: 4°C / 40°F for fridge, -18°C / 0°F for freezer.
Still not cold enough? (902) 609-5652
Fridge · Making loud noises
Evaporator fan or compressor issue
Likely Cause

Buzzing usually points to the compressor; rattling to loose drain pan or condenser fan; clicking on/off cycles may signal a faulty relay or start capacitor.

Try This First
  1. 1Pull the fridge from the wall and check if the drain pan underneath is loose — reposition it.
  2. 2Listen closely: noise from back = condenser fan or compressor; noise from inside = evaporator fan.
  3. 3If clicking repeats every few minutes, unplug for 30 min then plug back in to reset.
Noise persists? (902) 609-5652
Fridge · Leaking water inside
Clogged defrost drain
Likely Cause

Water pooling inside is almost always a clogged defrost drain. Ice or food debris blocks the drain hole, causing meltwater to collect on the bottom shelf instead of draining away.

Try This First
  1. 1Locate the drain hole at the back of the fridge interior (usually under a cover panel).
  2. 2Use a turkey baster with warm water to flush the drain clear.
  3. 3Wipe out any standing water and monitor over 24 hours.
Still leaking? (902) 609-5652
Fridge · Freezer frosting over
Defrost system failure
Likely Cause

Excessive frost buildup usually means the automatic defrost system has failed — either the defrost heater, timer, or thermostat. A damaged door gasket letting warm air in can also cause rapid frost.

Try This First
  1. 1Empty the freezer and manually defrost it — unplug and leave the door open for 24 hours.
  2. 2Check the freezer door gasket for cracks or gaps that let warm air in.
  3. 3Plug back in. If frost returns within a week, the defrost heater or timer needs replacement.
Frost keeps coming back? (902) 609-5652
Washer · Won't spin or drain
Clogged pump filter or lid switch
Likely Cause

If the drum fills but won't spin or drain, the most common culprits are a clogged pump filter, a faulty lid switch (top-loaders), or a blocked drain hose.

Try This First
  1. 1Locate the pump filter (front-loaders: small door at bottom front) and clean out lint and debris.
  2. 2Check the drain hose at the back for kinks or blockages.
  3. 3On top-loaders, press the lid switch manually — you should hear a click. No click = faulty switch.
Still stuck? (902) 609-5652
Washer · Vibrating excessively
Unbalanced load or worn shock absorbers
Likely Cause

Heavy vibration is most often caused by an unbalanced load or the machine not being level. In older units, worn shock absorbers or drum bearings are common culprits.

Try This First
  1. 1Open the drum and redistribute the laundry evenly, avoiding single heavy items alone.
  2. 2Check that all four feet are touching the floor — adjust the leveling feet until stable.
  3. 3Place an anti-vibration mat under the machine to dampen movement.
Still shaking? (902) 609-5652
Washer · Won't start at all
Power supply or door latch issue
Likely Cause

A washer that won't start is usually a power issue, a door latch not engaging, or a control board fault. Check the basics before assuming a major failure.

Try This First
  1. 1Confirm the outlet works — plug in another device or check the circuit breaker.
  2. 2Make sure the door is firmly closed and latched — most machines won't start with an open door.
  3. 3Unplug for 60 seconds and plug back in to reset the control board.
No luck? (902) 609-5652
Dryer · Not heating up
Clogged vent or blown thermal fuse
Likely Cause

A dryer that tumbles but produces no heat almost always has a clogged exhaust vent or a blown thermal fuse — a safety device that trips when the dryer overheats.

Try This First
  1. 1Clean the lint trap thoroughly — a blocked trap restricts airflow and causes overheating.
  2. 2Disconnect the exhaust duct from the back and check for lint blockages the full length of the duct.
  3. 3Check that the exterior vent flap opens freely when the dryer runs.
Still cold? (902) 609-5652
Dryer · Takes too long to dry
Restricted airflow or failing heating element
Likely Cause

When clothes take 2+ cycles to dry, restricted airflow from a clogged vent is the most likely cause. A partially failing heating element or moisture sensor can also extend dry times.

Try This First
  1. 1Clean the entire exhaust duct run from dryer to exterior — even partial blockages cut efficiency significantly.
  2. 2Wipe the moisture sensor bars inside the drum (two metal strips near the lint trap) with a damp cloth.
  3. 3Avoid overloading — fill the drum no more than ¾ full to allow proper air circulation.
Still slow? (902) 609-5652
Dryer · Making squeaking noise
Worn drum bearing or support rollers
Likely Cause

Squeaking during tumbling almost always points to worn drum support rollers, a dry drum bearing, or a worn idler pulley. These are mechanical wear items that need replacement.

Try This First
  1. 1Check if the noise changes when the drum is empty vs full — helps isolate the component.
  2. 2Inspect the drum seals around the front and back for worn felt strips causing friction.
  3. 3If squeaking started recently and is getting louder, avoid heavy loads to prevent further damage.
Squeaking won't stop? (902) 609-5652
Dishwasher · Not cleaning dishes
Clogged spray arms or filter
Likely Cause

Poor cleaning is most often caused by blocked spray arm holes, a clogged filter, or insufficient water temperature. Hard water deposits build up over time and restrict water flow.

Try This First
  1. 1Remove and rinse the filter at the bottom of the tub — soak in warm soapy water for 10 min.
  2. 2Remove spray arms and clear each hole with a toothpick to remove mineral deposits.
  3. 3Run an empty hot cycle with a cup of white vinegar on the top rack to descale.
Still dirty dishes? (902) 609-5652
Dishwasher · Leaking onto the floor
Worn door gasket or loose hose connection
Likely Cause

Leaks from the front usually mean a worn or dirty door gasket. Leaks from underneath often point to a loose drain hose, water inlet valve, or cracked pump housing.

Try This First
  1. 1Inspect the door gasket around the full perimeter — wipe clean and check for cracks or tears.
  2. 2Run a short cycle and watch where the water appears — front, side, or under the unit.
  3. 3Check that you're using dishwasher-specific detergent — regular dish soap causes excessive suds and leaks.
Still leaking? (902) 609-5652
Stove · Burner won't light
Dirty igniter or clogged burner cap
Likely Cause

Gas burners that won't ignite are almost always caused by food debris clogging the burner ports or a dirty igniter tip preventing a spark.

Try This First
  1. 1Remove the burner cap and grate — clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush to clear all ports.
  2. 2Dry thoroughly — a damp igniter won't spark. Use a hairdryer on low if needed.
  3. 3Gently clean the igniter tip with a dry toothbrush — do not use water directly on it.
Still no spark? (902) 609-5652
Stove · Igniter keeps clicking
Moisture or misaligned burner cap
Likely Cause

Continuous clicking after the burner is lit is almost always caused by moisture in the igniter or a burner cap that's misaligned after cleaning.

Try This First
  1. 1Check that the burner cap is seated flat and centered — even slight misalignment causes clicking.
  2. 2Dry the igniter area with a hairdryer on low for 2–3 minutes to remove moisture.
  3. 3If clicking continues on only one burner, that igniter switch likely needs replacement.
Won't stop clicking? (902) 609-5652
Oven · Not heating evenly
Faulty bake element or temperature sensor
Likely Cause

Uneven baking usually points to a partially failed bake element (electric ovens) or an inaccurate temperature sensor. In gas ovens, a weak igniter that struggles to maintain flame is common.

Try This First
  1. 1Place an oven thermometer inside and preheat to 180°C / 350°F — compare actual vs set temperature.
  2. 2Visually inspect the bake element at the bottom for cracks, blistering, or burn marks.
  3. 3Try rotating your baking pan halfway through cooking as a temporary workaround.
Uneven baking persists? (902) 609-5652
Oven · Door won't seal
Worn door gasket or bent hinge
Likely Cause

A poor door seal lets heat escape, raising energy use and increasing cook times. The most common causes are a worn or hardened door gasket, or bent door hinges from the door being opened too forcefully.

Try This First
  1. 1Run your hand around the door edge while the oven is on — feel for heat escaping at any point.
  2. 2Inspect the rubber gasket around the door frame for hardening, tears, or sections pulling away.
  3. 3Check both hinges at the bottom of the door for visible bending or misalignment.
