There are some of the most common problems with kitchen appliances and how to fix them:

Clicking igniter on a gas stove

If you hear a clicking sound when turning the surface burner knob, it is an electric igniter trying to spark the burner. Normally it clicks up to 3 times before it sparks. If the igniter keeps clicking but the burner won’t light, try the following tips:

• Make sure the burner cap is on the right place
• Remove the burner cap and wipe away any debris
• Give the burner time to air dry

If you went through all of these tips and your stove still has a clicking issue, it can be the malfunctioning spark module, ignition switch, or the igniter itself. It is better to leave this job for professional appliance repair technician.

Electric stove burner won’t heat

If one or more burners on your electric stove stop heating, do not get upset and try the following tips:

• It may seem very simple but make sure the power cord is plugged in.
• Check circuit breakers or fuses. If the circuit breaker is tripped or the fuse is blown, the stove will not receive any power. In this case, the circuit needs to be restored.

If you tried the simple tips above and your stove burner still won’t heat, it may be necessary to contact appliance repair company for assistance as the surface element switch, surface element board, or coil surface element can be defective.

Oven temperature is not correct

If the food comes out of the oven burnt or on the contrary, it takes too long to cook your dishes, use a thermometer for the oven to check temperature settings. It is possible that your oven needs calibration. In that case, an appliance repair technician help might be needed.

Dishwasher won’t start

If you don’t hear a rush of water when the dishwasher is started, it can alert us. Do not panic as the problem may not be as serious as it seems. Look in the back of your dishwasher to make sure the float switch isn’t jammed. If something stuck in the switch, simply remove it. In case it didn’t help to return your dishwasher to normal operation, the thermal fuse might be blown, the door latch or door switch can be defective. Contact a professional to find the source of the issue.

Microwave doesn’t heat up

If your microwave isn’t heating up food, it could be burned out magnetron or high voltage diode, broken door switch. A qualified appliance repair technician only should replace these parts, as it can be very dangerous.
