Is your Miele refrigerator not cooling? This easy-to-follow guide from the Onefservice team will help you find and fix common problems, and prevent them from happening again. Follow these simple steps to make sure your appliance works well and keeps your food at the right temperature.
- Condenser Coils
They are located either at the back or bottom of your device. If they are dirty, your refrigerator may not cool properly. Cleaning them regularly is important. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust and dirt. Clean coils help your appliance work better and maintain temperature. - Evaporator Fan Motor
It moves air over the evaporator coils to cool your whole appliance. Listen for a soft humming noise. If you hear strange hissing or vibrating sounds, the malfunction may be in the motor. Check if the fan blades turn easily. If it is faulty, replace it to restore proper air circulation and cooling. - Condenser Fan Motor
This part may be found near the compressor and helps cool the compressor and condenser coils. If the fan blades are blocked or the motor is not functioning, your unit will not cool. Check the fan blades and ensure they spin easily. If the motor is defective, replace it. - Start Relay
It works with the compressor to start the cooling cycle. To test the relay, remove it from the compressor and shake it. If you hear a rattling sound, it is broken and needs replacement. - Start Capacitor
It gives the compressor the boost it needs to start. Test it with a multimeter. If it doesn’t show the correct readings, it has a defect, replace it. A working part is needed for the compressor to begin its cooling cycle, and ensure the appliance stays at the right temperature. - Evaporator Coils
Too much frost on them can prevent proper cooling. To check them, remove the back panel in the freezer compartment. If you see too much frost, defrost the coils manually using a hairdryer or let them thaw naturally. After that, the refrigerator should cool properly again. If frost keeps building up, there might be a problem with the defrost system that needs further inspection.
Other Possible Issues
If these steps don’t solve the problem, the issue can be with more complex parts like the compressor, motherboard, or temperature control board. These problems are not so common but can affect the refrigerator’s performance. Ask professionals to check these components.
