r/Appliances

Hello I am trying to avoid having to pay repairs because financially strapped at the moment. I initially heard this clicking and turned the breaker off on my oven since I can't access my plug without possibly pulling out the gas. I let it dry for several days turned back on still clicking let it dry for another week turn it on still clicking scrubbed it some more today at the igniter as I have read everywhere. Still clicking. I live in a very dry state so it's had plenty of time to dry up at any of the moisture so I'm not sure what to do next. It's only this burner doing the clicking and sparking. It all started in the middle of me cleaning the burners trying to use degreaser to get all the gunk up.

My kid and his girlfriend had been using it for a while and we're not very good at cleaning up after themselves. Please excuse the mess of the stove I was trying to fix it and here I am. I have a still picture in the very first comment after this because it wouldn't allow me to attach a photo with the video.

My husband thinks I just need to wait for it to cool off, but it's been plugged in for an hour and it's not just not cool inside, it's HOT inside. It buzzes loudly intermittently and there's a strong (not faint) burning plastic smell. I pulled it away from the wall and nothing is visibly melting, but the big black canister part in this photo is hot enough to burn your fingers. That doesn't seem right to me. Am I nuts, or is this thing super broken?

Woke up this morning to an E15 error code indicating water in base of dishwasher (washer had stopped overnight, dishes still dirty).

Pulled out dishwasher and watched it while running normal cycle to look for the location of the leak.

• no leak while draining

• no leak while filling

• leak appears immediately during prewash cycle, splashing pretty heavily out of the two holes circled in the picture

Behind those two holes and that entire piece of plastic itself there's nothing but a solid piece of styrofoam. The inlet valve doesn't seem to be close enough to be the issue.

I guess its leaking out of the tub from the circled area in the second picture? Is that possible? I don't know what's behind the plastic there or how I would go about taking it off...

BTW the black gasket that seals the tub's back wall looks perfectly fine. If it were to be leaking there, I don't think it could be leaking the amount of water that I saw coming out of those holes.

Thanks in advance for any advice given!

Hi all - just bought a house and moved in to discover the dishwasher is cracked and leaks some. The leaking is pretty minor and a small towel in front of the appliance would probably be sufficient. It’s mostly steam that is escaping from the area at the top, then water drips down. Apparently has been for some time because there’s existing damage to the bottom of the countertop.

Is this something fixable or would an adhesive be a waste of time? I’m not overly concerned with the water since it’s at the top of the machine and seemingly not leaking much but I don’t want to worsen the countertop damage.

Any ideas that I may not be thinking of? It seems the plastic is all one large piece which includes the front control panel. I imagine it might be possible to buy a new control panel for it but would prefer to repair if at all possible. A bandaid for now is okay.

Please see video attached - I can remove the bracket and everything works fine but is that what I am supposed to do? AI is telling me it serves a purpose so I wanted to check here first

Thanks!

I bought this toaster. It wasn't expensive, but I only needed it to toast bread. Seems fair enough. The machine smokes and burns after 10 seconds. Absolutely a faulty electrical part. There are no crumbs or even food in it. When I contacted customer service, they said they'd replace it as long as I PAID THE SHIPPING FEE! $12.49. The audacity to make someone pay for a piece of junk that set off my smoke alarm in unconscionable. I'm trying to attach a video but maybe I can get a screenshot. Anyone else have issues with this company? Thanks.

Maintenance has been ignoring me , is there anything I can do to fix this? When they were here last fixing my sink he mentioned that this tube is dirty and needs to be cleaned… my dishwasher works fine but it isn’t cleaning well. I’ve cleaned the filter and ran a white vinegar load through it. But there’s this one weird dirty film on the walls of it and my dishes come out smelling not so clean. It was just replaced in March when I had my
Unit renovated. Any advice is appreciated

Purchased over the range microwave January 6th this year. Well today sitting on the couch I heard the fan turn on? Figured someone did it..nope no one around, then random buttons started clicking by itself. I got up and checked now none of the buttons do anything at all. I unplugged it for a bit and it was fine again. Now a few hours later I’m just on the couch again and I hear the fan turn on again 😡. Bought from Lowe’s paid $400 and it’s been just over 7 months.

I have a KitchenAid dishwasher that started making odd sounds this past weekend seemingly out of nowhere. I was away for the week but my fiance says she didn't notice any issues when she used it during the week before. There is no water leaking that I can see but it does seem like it might be draining water slowly it's hard to tell. If you have any ideas of what could be causing the different sounds in the video please let me know what I could possibly do or look at to fix it if possible. Any help is appreciated as I'd prefer to fix this dishwasher rather than buy a new one. Thank you

I am use to DIY things around the house but this oven is giving me a bit more than Im use to. Any advice would be appreciated. I got an error code c20 or c21 I believe that meant the oven was overheating. It did have a bit of a burning wire smell to it. I unplugged it. I tested the oven temp gage and it was fine. Im not sure how to rest the panel. Also I am attaching what looks to be burned parts. I have heard sometimes in looks like this simply from cooking and over time smoke stains it. Do you think it is safe to use still ifni figure out the part that needs replaced. I would love nothing more than to hire a professional but I dont have the money for that. I have attached what my control board looks like and what the burnt parts look like.
