We use high-quality OEM parts whenever possible and make sure each repair is done with care and precision.

For reliable, friendly East Lake appliance repair, give us a call today and let us show you what dependable service really looks like. 61. Refrigerator Defrost Sensor Resistance Drift In Samsung, LG, and Frigidaire units, the defrost sensor (thermistor) may show inaccurate readings over time due to internal resistance drift. The control board receives a false low temperature, preventing the heater from cycling on and resulting in evaporator coil icing and restricted airflow.

Refrigerator Question: Why is my refrigerator running but not cooling? Answer: This could be caused by dirty condenser coils, a faulty evaporator fan motor, or a failing compressor. In brands like Samsung or GE, control board or thermistor failures may also prevent proper temperature regulation.

Washer Question: Why does my washing machine shake violently during spin? Answer: Excessive shaking is usually due to an unbalanced load, worn suspension rods or shocks, or an uneven floor. LG and Whirlpool front-load washers often display UE or UB errors when this happens.

Dryer Question: Why does my dryer run but not produce any heat? Answer: This can be caused by a blown thermal fuse, failed heating element, or faulty high-limit thermostat. In Samsung and Maytag dryers, moisture sensor issues can also interrupt the heat cycle.

Dishwasher Question: Why is my dishwasher not draining properly? Answer: Common causes include a clogged drain hose, blocked air gap, or a failed drain pump. Bosch and Frigidaire dishwashers may also have filter obstructions that need to be cleaned regularly.

Oven Question: Why does my oven take too long to preheat? Answer: A slow preheat could be due to a weakened bake element, faulty temperature sensor (RTD), or control board delays. In GE and Whirlpool ovens, calibration or relay board failure can also cause this.

COMMON EAST LAKE APPLIANCE ISSUES

PINELLAS COUNTY SERVICE AREA

Washer Rotor Position Sensor (RPS) Failure Seen in LG, Whirlpool, and Electrolux direct drive washers, the rotor position sensor can fail intermittently, causing erratic spinning or unbalanced load detection. Error codes like LE or E6 often appear, and voltage drop tests across the hall sensor confirm the fault.

Dryer High-Limit Thermostat Nuisance Tripping Common in Maytag, GE, and Samsung dryers, this occurs when the high-limit thermostat opens too early due to aging or poor ventilation. The heating circuit is interrupted prematurely, resulting in long dry times and a warm but ineffective cycle.

Dishwasher Float Switch Intermittent Contact In Bosch, GE, and KitchenAid models, a partially oxidized float switch can make intermittent contact, falsely signaling the control board that the tub is full. The fill valve shuts off early, causing dry cycles or failure to start.

Oven Relay Board Coil Burnout This failure is common in Whirlpool, Frigidaire, and Samsung double ovens where a weakened bake relay coil on the secondary relay board fails to maintain contact. The oven may click and light up but never heat, despite power being sent from the control board.

Gas Range Flame Roll-Out Due to Improper Air Shutter Position On GE, Frigidaire, and Whirlpool gas ranges, improper air-to-gas mixture due to a misaligned air shutter causes the flame to lift or roll forward, which can char the burner head or affect nearby control knobs. Proper adjustment restores safe combustion.

Microwave Door Latch Failure from Misaligned Interlock Switches In Samsung, Sharp, and GE microwaves, repeated slamming or misaligned hinges can shift the primary and secondary door switches, preventing startup. Resistance testing across the micro-switch terminals will confirm contact failure under pressure.

Garbage Disposal Thermal Overload Trips Prematurely Models from Moen, InSinkErator, and Waste King may experience this when the thermal protector has degraded, reducing its heat tolerance. Even minor jams or high load use can trigger shutdown until the unit fully cools.

Freezer Evaporator Fan Delay on Start-Up In LG, Whirlpool, and GE freezers, the evaporator fan motor may delay activation post-defrost due to a failed capacitor or aged fan motor windings. This causes temperature imbalance and inconsistent ice production or freezer warming.

Ice Maker Fill Valve Seepage and Overfill This is common in Frigidaire, GE, and Samsung ice makers where the solenoid valve does not seat fully closed, allowing a slow drip into the tray. Over time, this leads to oversized cubes, ice jams, and water spills in the freezer compartment.
