When you are having trouble with proper functioning of your home appliances the most important thing to remember is not rushing into fixing it yourself. There are of course a few situations that may cause false alarms, but these are obvious and can be seen and repaired in an instant such as appropriately plugged in cord or an on button switched off. After you have made sure the problem is due to none of the above prerequisites, it is time to call in professional help.

  1. The first thing to do is, of course, check the guarantee to see if you can get your appliance fixed by the supplier for free, if so do not hesitate to use their help to your benefit. If however, the guarantee has expired the next step should be running through the manual to get informed on the possible malfunctions. This way you will acknowledge the damage to be fixed and estimate the probable total cost of the repair.

  2. Dealing with a major appliance malfunction is obviously hard considering it Is a machine with much more complexity where even details may cause failure. If you have decided to try and take care of the problem on your own, many of recently manufactured appliances include an electronic diagnostic display to alarm when a vital failure occurs. The diagnoses can be interpreted in coordination with the manual. This way you will get to pinpoint the base of the problem by acknowledging if it is a control device or a mechanical device that is causing the malfunction.

  3. There is a great deal of appliance failures caused by improper power sources since most of your appliances operate on the home electrical system. It is important to connect the device to the proper outlet accordingly with its voltage and performance demands. Take for an example small appliances, they work on 120 volt circuits and have cord plugs with two blades, whereas major ones such as dryers, washing machines and air conditioners require 220 to 240 volt wiring which means that you cannot plug them to a 120 volt circuit but instead to a grounded outlet. Make sure you read the voltage label placed either on the metal plate or the casing.

  4. Before you start engaging into repairs be very careful in assuring all the power, gas or water sources to the appliance to be fixed are disconnected and unplugged. This is not only a personal safety measure to be implemented it will also guarantee that no damages will be made to the nearby surrounding whatsoever.
