Coolers are essential appliances, particularly in warm climates or during the hot summer months. They ensure our food stays fresh and beverages remain cool. However, like any appliance, coolers may eventually need repair or maintenance. Addressing these needs promptly can prevent many problems and save you considerable money in the long run.
Coolers can suffer from various issues, including temperature inconsistencies, leaks, and motor problems. Understanding these common issues can help you identify signs of trouble early and take actions to address them before they escalate. For instance, temperature fluctuations could indicate a faulty thermostat or insufficient insulation. Knowing the root causes allows you to make informed decisions about whether a DIY fix is feasible or if professional help is warranted.

On the morning of September 10, a customer from Burlingame contacted Triton Appliance Repair with an urgent request— their refrigerator had suddenly stopped working. With a large house party planned for the weekend, they were understandably stressed. However, Triton Appliance Repair immediately stepped in, offering a same-day appointment. The customer was relieved, as they hadn’t expected such a quick response.

After a comprehensive diagnostic, our technician—who has over 5 years of experience—identified the issue: both the compressor and condenser fan motor were not receiving power due to problems with the control board, which had several blown condensers.

Initially, it wasn’t a major concern. However, after an unexpected weekend away, the customer came back to find the washer overflowing—a clear sign the issue required immediate attention.
During our initial inspection, our technician, with over 6 years of experience, performed diagnostic tests, but no error messages were displayed, and the washer seemed to be functioning normally. However, after carefully waiting 30 minutes between test cycles, we noticed a subtle internal water leak coming from the detergent dispenser. This led to the discovery of the root cause: a faulty water valve solenoid that wasn’t sealing properly, allowing a small but continuous flow of water into the machine.
