Introduction

In more than 30 years of appliance repair, I've never seen a repair that is as quick and easy as this one. I've had hundreds of viewers to my video on this repair write to me saying: "It seemed like magic, and took less than one minute!

An oven door that won't stay closed wastes energy and can damage the stove when the oven heats up. And, when the door isn't completely closed, it's hard for the oven to get up to the right temperature.

To fix the problem, you have to reset the oven door springs. About four years into the life of the oven, the springs lose some of their ability to pull the oven door shut.

You'll be surprised how easy this problem is to fix.

  Cold Freezer - Warming Fridge - Iced Up If your freezer is cold but the refrigerator is warm, it could be caused by a number of issues. Here are some possible fixes: 1. Check the temperature settings - Make sure that the temperature controls are set correctly for both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. If they are set too high or too low, it can affect the temperature in both areas. 2. Check the door seals - Inspect the door seals to make sure they are clean, free of debris, and creating a tight seal. If the seals are damaged or loose, they can allow warm air to enter the refrigerator compartment and cause it to warm up. 3. Clean the condenser coils - Dust and debris can accumulate on the condenser coils at the back of or underneath the refrigerator, which can cause the refrigerator to work harder and warm up. Clean the coils with a brush or vacuum to improve the efficiency of the cooling system. 4. Check the evaporator fan - The evaporator fan circulates cold air from th...

 ✨  Whirlpool Washer Door Won’t Unlock - Easy Fix ✨ There are a few possible solutions to try if your Whirlpool front loader door won't unlock:  1. Check the wash cycle : Sometimes, the door won't unlock until the wash cycle has completed. This is a safety feature on many front loaders.  2. Check the water supply : Another safety feature is that the door won't unlock if there is still water in the machine. Check the water supply to make sure there is no blockage or interruption.  3. Check the drain pump : If there is water in the machine and the door won't unlock, the problem may be with the drain pump.    Take the drain tube from out of the standpipe in the wall behind the washer and put it into a bucket.    This will allow the water to manually drain out of the washer.    Now that the water is out, the door should open. 4. Check the power supply : If the machine has lost power or is malfunctioning, it may not unlock the door. Try ...
