If your oven/stove/range is having any of these symptoms, then replacing the hinge roller could solve your appliance problem. 1) Oven Door will not open and/or close Tools used for this repair/replacement: 1) Phillips Screw Driver 2) Pliers GE Part Number: WB14X103
Solution:
Unplug the power cord and check for voltage at the outlet. Inspect the
cord for any damage or burn marks. Because of all the safety devices
in a microwave oven, any one of them could be the cause. You will need
to remove the outside shell of the microwave. Unscrew the screws
underneath and on the back that hold the shell in place and slide it
off. Here's a list of things to check that may be causing this problem.
The fuse could be blown -- Remove the fuse
with a set of fusepullers. Place it on a paper towel so it doesn't roll
away. With your VOM set to RX1, place a probe on each end of the fuse.
The reading should be zero. If not, replace the fuse with an identical
one.
Door switch could be bad -- Locate the door
switches and remove the leads. With the VOM on RX1, probe the
terminals. The reading should be infinity with the door open and zero
with it closed. If not, replace. Check both door switches.
Fan
motor could be bad -- Locate the fan and remove the leads. With the
VOM set to RX1, probe the terminals. If the reading is infinity, then
it is bad.
Summer is near and it is supposed to be one of the hottest summers we’ve had in a while.Does your refrigerator have an icemaker? Is your icemaker
not working like it used to?Now is the time to take care of it. Did
you know most refrigerators can have universal icemakers installed on
it? And if you already have one installed on it, they are pretty easy
to replace.If you fall into the category of already having an icemaker
but it’s not working like it used to, you may want to look at changing
the water filter or the water valve.
Make sure you have
the ice cubes ready for the summer to help keep you and your pets cool.
Ice cubes can be left in the pets bowl so they have fresh cold water
when you have to leave them alone at the house. I’m still working on
training my dogs to get their own food and water…wouldn’t that be
something :). Whatever your need for ice is, know that it is easier to
install than you think it is and something you can do today.
A sink full of dirty dishes will always drive home the importance of a functioning dishwasher.
Not only is it a convenience to simply load the machine and have it do
the hard work for you, but dishwashers have also been shown to
sanitize dishes far better than hand-washing could ever manage. When
the dishwasher has problems, the complex internal mechanisms should be
serviced by a professional, but Jeff says one of the most common
complaints is simple to remedy. “Seventy percent of customer complaints
are that the wash quality is poor,” he says. “One of the best ways to
help the dishwasher work more efficiently is by not pre-washing or
cleaning the dishes before putting them into the machine as well as
using quality soap and the correct wash cycle.” Since the phosphate ban
a few years ago, manufacturers have changed the way dishwashing soaps
work. Surprisingly, soaps now work more effectively when they meet
correct water temperatures and food particles, which get its chemical
reaction going. Jeff recommends only scraping dishes to remove leftover
food and not rinsing or brushing them before they go into the
dishwasher.
As
the one kitchen appliance that is always running, the refrigerator
should be expected to suffer some wear and tear. But Jeff points out
that a refrigerator problem often subtly announces itself through the
appearance of condensation or frost—long before the time comes when a
breakdown might be imminent. “Visually check the fridge, maybe once a
month,” says Jeff, “and if you see condensation or frost around the
insides of the doors, then that means you have an air leak.” Any pooling
water in the bottom of the fridge might indicate that the drain needs
to be looked at and possibly cleaned out. While replacing the gasket
and clearing the drain line are tasks that a homeowner can sometimes
complete, Jeff recommends they be left to a professional repairman to
avoid any mistakes that might create bigger problems later. Catching
the problems early is definitely a matter of making a visual
inspection of the refrigerator a regular part of your kitchen duties.
Another culprit that often contributes to refrigerator malfunction is
dirty condenser coils. Usually located on the back, top, or bottom of
the refrigerator, these coils help to cool the refrigerant. If the
coils accumulate lint, they can’t get rid of heat efficiently, and the
refrigerator’s compressor will work harder and use up more energy as a
result. So not only is regularly cleaning the coils an easy way to
prolong the life of your appliance and avoid repair calls, but it can
also save you money monthly by reducing power usage. And in a machine
that is always on, this can put a few extra dollars a month back into
your pocket.
From heating up coffee to cooking a full meal, the microwave has become
one of the most depended-upon appliances in the kitchen. Given its
frequent use, when a problem does arise with the machine, it can be a
real disappointment to the home cook looking for a speedy answer to
meal preparation. Fortunately, the most common enemy of microwave
operation is also the easiest to overcome. Accumulated food particles
and grease that have hardened over time are the main things that
interfere with the microwave’s operation. “That hardened food will
collect around what’s called the stir cover and in the corners of the
microwave,” says Jeff, “and it will eventually burn.” This can cause
sparking in the microwave, and, if allowed to remain over time, it can
damage the interior of the microwave and create exposed areas and holes
that can cause sparking or potential fires. Regular cleaning can
eliminate the problem and prevent extra wear on the microwave in
addition to maintaining the machine’s efficiency in cooking.
Because a majority of the microwave’s operating parts are internal,
most of the common things that go wrong with it will need to be serviced
by a qualified technician.

Do it yourself tips on how to clean the sump of a dishwasher. White film, grit, and grime are problems I've been having with our Kenmore Ultra dishwasher
the last couple of days. After doing some online research, I found the
likely causes were hard water, too much detergent, and screen or
filter problems. It looked to me like the problems were more like
filtering problems because I had what looked like dirty water bypassing
somewhere in the dishwasher being applied to the dishes. So I decided I
would clean the sump in the bottom of the dishwasher to see if that
would cure the problem. Video covers removal of the parts in the
dishwasher necessary to access the sump in the bottom of the
dishwasher. From my research online, I learned that this type of
maintenance should work on Whirlpool and Kitchenaid dishwashers also.
My AC stop working and blows hot air. The fan wasnt blowing when the AC
was on. I opened the panel and saw the run capacitor bulging out. The
run capacitor stores up charge to kick start the compressor and fan. So,
if thats broken, then may be thats why my fan isn't running. So, i
bought one for $25 on the internet and it fixed the problem This is for documentation and reference only. I am not a professional. Many
asked where to buy a run start capacitor? Search "HVAC supply" in
google maps and a local AC supply store sells it. Or go to online
stores like Amazon. The following link goes to Amazon's capacitor section appliances

does match the décor of your kitchen.
