Refrigerator not cooling properly — Madrid, Madrid
When a refrigerator stops maintaining temperature, food spoils quickly and the compressor often runs continuously trying to compensate. Common culprits include dirty condenser coils, a failed evaporator fan, a malfunctioning defrost system causing ice buildup on the evaporator, or a refrigerant leak. An appliance repair technician can diagnose whether the problem is mechanical, electrical, or a sealed-system issue and replace the failed component before the food loss adds up.
