Kitchen Aid refrigerator repair issues we can handle
The appliance repair experts at Sears Home Services handle Kitchen Aid refrigerator repairs big and small. During a service call, we recommend routine maintenance, troubleshoot common issues, and make repairs fast.
Refrigerator not cooling
Cooling issues in a KitchenAid refrigerator can be linked to clogged coils, the condenser fan, or failing gaskets. Homeowners should start by checking to see if food packaging is blocking the vents. If the cause isn't obvious, count on the experts at Sears Home Services to take a closer look.
Refrigerator leaking water
An experienced technician can diagnose why a KitchenAid refrigerator is leaking. Water leaks are often caused by a clogged defrost drain. In some cases, you might need a new water inlet valve for your water dispenser. During service, the technician can also rule out a cracked pan, bad valve, and check all connections.
Refrigerator is constantly cycling
If it sounds like your KitchenAid refrigerator is always running, then dirty or dusty coils, a faulty defrost timer, or failing capacitors or relays could be to blame. You may want to start by checking the temperature settings on your appliance, but if that doesn't help, reach out to schedule service.
Ice maker not working
It's not uncommon for KitchenAid refrigerators to stop making ice over time. This can be caused by a faulty ice maker fill tube, ice clogs, and changes in water pressure. Our repair technicians know just what to look for when the ice maker on your KitchenAid appliance isn't working as expected.
Ice build up in freezer
Ice buildup leads to freezer burned foods and reduced efficiency. If you're noticing changes in your KitchenAid freezer's auto-defrost cycle or finding more ice build up than normal, start by checking the temperature settings for your freezer. If you're not able to identify a cause, we'll help you troubleshoot. Ice build up isn't a problem isolated to KitchenAid refrigerators, and the team is knowledgeable at servicing all major appliances facing this issue.

Scheduling regular appliance service on your KitchenAid refrigerator helps to ensure that it'll work efficiently and effectively over the course of its life.
