An acquaintance in the repair of equipment showed how to eliminate the cause of the noise of the refrigerator, leaks inside, and an unpleasant odor

We all cannot imagine our life without household appliances. How did we live without a washing machine, microwave oven, electric kettle and other useful appliances before? There is a technique that you can do without, and there are devices that you cannot live without. For example, a refrigerator.

Each device has a tendency to break. An unpleasant odor appears in the refrigerator, the sealing gum no longer fulfills its function. All this can be restored, repaired by hand.

Refrigerator drain pipe

Condensation appears, water appears under the fruit and vegetable drawers. This is a sure sign that the pipe is clogged.

If you call a master, he will take a lot of money for such a simple job. You can do everything yourself. There are two solutions. Do not forget to disconnect the device from the mains!

Option 1. Take a rubber bulb, pour warm water into it. Insert the end of the pear into the hole inside the refrigerator and press sharply. A strong pressure of water flushes and removes all blockages. Do this several times.

But remember that from below, after each procedure, dirty water must be removed from the tray (sump).

Option 2. You will need a piece of soft wire (copper) or wire to fit the drain hole.

Pass the end of the wire through the hole and twist (up / down motion) to clear the tube. Then, using a syringe or pear, pour the water into the gutter. If it starts to leave quickly, then the cleaning was successful.

There are brushes for cleaning the drain tube. They sometimes come with a refrigerator.

Elastic

If the gum is peeled off, cracked, torn, then warm air will penetrate into the refrigerator. The sensor transmits the task to the controller, and the motor starts to function at full capacity. As a result, it quickly breaks down. In addition, food deteriorates quickly.

Many run to the store to buy a new refrigerator seal and replace it. If it is torn or cracked, then this is the right decision. But for other problems, you can save money and restore the old rubber band.

Option 1. It is necessary to remove the rubber band. It's easy to do.

The part is sometimes inserted into a groove or fixed with foam on the door. So, we removed the part, now we heat the water to a boil and leave the gum in the boiling water until it cools. Then dry it and put it back on. This helps to make the drying gum practically new. The part will fit snugly.

Option 2. If all else fails, hang the door to the other side. Just do not forget that it will open in the other direction and take care of its free opening. This solution may not help. The method works 50/50.

The refrigerator is noisy

There are several reasons. The most commonplace is that the refrigerator itself is not installed according to the level.

First reason - the plastic drip tray above the compressor is not adjusted.

It is necessary to loosen screws or other fasteners and fix the pallet just above the compressor so that it does not touch it and does not make sounds.

The second: It was necessary to remove the transport plates. This is where the compressor is attached to the refrigerator. Fold back the retainer and remove the plates. Parents have had these plates and have been making noise for 5 years:

All of the above malfunctions can be performed, corrected by yourself in minutes and not wasted money.
