The Fisher and Paykel fridge in your home is an appliance that can easily attract the attention of the guests due to its extraordinary design and the variety of features and no doubt it adds elegance to the home. However, just like any other fridge, it can malfunction due to problems in the inner components.

Fisher and Paykel Fridge Problem

So, when you call a technician for repairs, he will first diagnose the problems before starting the repairing process. And to do so, he will follow these steps.

Starting With the Thermostat

Before starting the Fisher and Paykel fridge repairs, the technicians will pull the fridge out of its position to check the power or the thermostat as this particular component is known to cause a variety of problems in a fridge.

After checking the thermostat, they will inspect the food section to see if any boxes or food items are blocking the vents from which the cold air flows and circulates in the fridge.

Diagnosing the Evaporator Fan

The next component that the technicians will check is the evaporator fan.

The thermostat deals with the temperature inside the fridge but the evaporator fan deals with the circulation of the cold air inside the Fisher and Paykel fridge. So, the technicians will diagnose for possible problems such as malfunctioning of the evaporator fan or electrical problems in the component.

As you can easily guess that problems in the evaporator fan will decrease the airflow in the fridge which will cause the temperature to rise. And if indeed the fan is not working properly, the technicians might need to replace it.

In the repairing process, the technicians will test the evaporator fan in diagnostic mode and if they see that the fan is running fine, the control board might be causing the problems and they will replace that. However, as we have mentioned above, if the evaporator does not work during the diagnostic mode, the entire component will have to be replaced.

Diagnosing the Compressor

If the first two components are working fine, the technician assigned for the Fisher and Paykel fridge repairs will begin inspecting the compressor.
The compressor injects vapour into the refrigerator coils placed outside the appliance. The technicians will listen for the sound made by the compressor’s motor when it’s running. If they do not find any sound, there might be a problem with the motor and they will either repair that or will replace that depending on the condition of the component.

Diagnosing the Condenser Coils

The last and final component that can cause problems in the fridge is the condenser coils. The gas inside the fridge is being converted into a cool liquid that results in the flow of cool air inside the fridge. This process takes place inside the condenser coils and if there is a problem inside the coils, the fridge might malfunction. So, the last step is to check this component for problems after checking the rest of the Fischer and Paykel parts and if they find that dirt and dust inside the coils is the reason behind the problem, they will remove that so that the fridge works as it should. Else, they might need to replace it entirely.
