If your LG refrigerator isn't cooling in Las Vegas, try three things first: vacuum the dusty condenser coils, check that frost or food isn't blocking the air vents between the freezer and fridge, and note any FF or rF fan error on the display. If the fridge is still warm after that, the cause is usually a failed fan motor, a defrost fault, the linear compressor or a control board — that's when to call a technician.
When a Las Vegas summer hits 110°F, your refrigerator works overtime. If you open your LG fridge to warm air and melting groceries, start with these three checks.
Las Vegas is dusty. Desert dust plus pet hair clogs the condenser coils, usually at the bottom back or behind the front grille. When the coils can't release heat, the inside of the fridge warms up.
DIY fix: unplug the refrigerator, remove the base grille or back panel, and vacuum the coils with a brush attachment. Doing this every 6 months is the number-one way to extend a refrigerator's life in Nevada.
Freezer cold but fridge warm? LG refrigerators use a fan to push cold air from the freezer into the fresh-food section. If the automatic defrost fails, thick ice can build up over the evaporator coil and block the vents.
DIY fix: make sure food isn't blocking the vents inside the fridge. If you suspect heavy ice behind the freezer panel, you can defrost manually by unplugging the fridge and leaving the doors open for 24 hours. That clears the ice but doesn't fix the defrost failure that caused it, and 24 hours without a fridge in Las Vegas is tough — if you can't wait, call a pro.
DIY fix: a hard reset (unplug for 10 minutes) can clear a glitch. If ice is blocking the fan, the manual defrost above may help. If the fan motor has burned out, it has to be replaced.
LG linear compressors and electronic boards are complex. If you've cleaned the coils, checked the vents and the fridge still won't cool, working on electrical parts yourself can cause more expensive damage. We repair LG refrigerators across Las Vegas, Henderson and Boulder City, usually the same day.
Usually the fan that moves cold air from the freezer has stopped, or ice from a defrost failure is blocking the airflow.
It's a freezer fan error — the fan isn't running correctly, often because ice is blocking it.
Every 6 months, or every 3 months with pets.
Still warm after the three checks? Call (702) 744-2944 — the $75 diagnostic is credited toward the repair.
A Summerlin senior living care center asked us to automate its laundry: we installed detergent, softener and bleach dispensing on three commercial washer-extractors and repaired a faulty door lock on one of them.
Two stacked Maytag dryers in a Henderson home started squeaking and their drums began to wobble. Inside we found worn rollers and idler pulleys and a dangerous amount of lint; we replaced the moving parts and cleaned the dryers and vents.
A built-in Whirlpool refrigerator in North Las Vegas stopped cooling because its compressor failed. We replaced it on the R600a system with Vulkan Lokring fittings, no brazing, and saved the owner a new built-in fridge and a kitchen remodel.
An LG refrigerator in Las Vegas stopped cooling because its compressor failed after years of clogged condenser coils. We replaced the compressor and filter drier on the R600a system with Vulkan Lokring fittings, no brazing.
A Las Vegas business got a health department warning for its corroded Scotsman ice bin, and the ice machine kept overfilling or stopping. We fabricated new stainless door frames, replaced the scaled optical sensors and passed reinspection.
A Polin rotating rack convection oven in a Las Vegas bakery would not hold its set temperature. We serviced the burner, found an intermittent flame sensor shutting off the gas, replaced it and cleaned the draft inducer and exhaust blower.
A Las Vegas restaurant's Douglas commercial dishwasher stopped heating on the rinse cycle and its worn control panel had holes in it. A stuck contactor had blown two slow-blow fuses; we replaced both, plus the panel, and rinse heat is back.
A Las Vegas pizzeria's Roto-Flex rotating deck oven swung between flames shooting up and barely any flame. Another company had already replaced the thermostat. We found a clogged combustion blower and fixed it in one visit with no parts.
A Picard RE-8-24 revolving tray oven in a Las Vegas bakery had three problems at once: unstable temperature, squeaking and a drum that stopped turning. Flour had clogged the air intake and worn the drive; we cleaned, replaced the bearings and serviced the chain.
