When repairing a refrigerator: Safety first!

Attention: If you are not familiar with the craft, it is better to consult a specialist. Especially with faulty electronics or a broken thermostat, under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the faulty part yourself unless you are absolutely sure.

Because if the cooling system of a Bosch refrigerator is damaged in such a way that refrigerant flows out, then this means the end of the refrigerator – in this state it is unrecoverable. In addition, for your own safety, before starting repairs, the master disconnects the refrigerator from the mains. In addition, the Bosch refrigerator should never be placed at an angle so that any part of it can be reached, as this may cause the device to fall on you and cause serious injury.

 1 Bosch refrigerator does not cool properly:

1. Faulty temperature display

If the temperature inside the Bosch refrigerator is too high, you should at first remain calm.

As a first step, the technician should check the temperature sensor inside. The adjusting dial may have been adjusted by accident. The technician should also check the same for the freezer compartment as the cold is transferred from there to the refrigerator.

The temperature in the refrigerator should be from 3 to 4 degrees, and in the freezer from -15 to -18 degrees.

2. Dirty vents

If this is not the cause, the technician should check the air holes. They are located between the freezer and refrigerator, as well as on the drain hose. If dirt and ice get stuck there, it can prevent proper temperature control.

Here, it is enough for a specialist to clean the air holes to solve the problem.

3. Porous or cracked seals

Porous or torn door seals can also be the cause of the problem. In this case, the device is not cooled enough because the doors can no longer close properly.

The seals are pre-cleaned and the presence of possible cracks and irregularities on the seals is checked. If the gaskets break, new gaskets are required. Replacement is carried out by our master.

1. Dirty drain pan

If water is leaking from your Bosch refrigerator, a dirty drain pan may be the cause. However, this problem can be prevented by annual cleaning.

2. Drain pipe clogged.

If this is not the reason, the first thing the master needs to do is check the drain. The drain pipe may be clogged. Through this pipe, thawed melt water is discharged to the outside. If the hole is clogged, water may leak out.

It is also extremely important to unplug the refrigerator when cleaning it. Any experienced technician knows this.

3. Wrong water filter

Another possible cause of water leakage is an incorrectly adjusted water filter. In this case, you first disconnect the refrigerator from the mains, and then the master will be able to remove the filter for water. If cracks are found on the head or body, the corresponding part must be replaced.

 3 Power supply is defective

Here the technician must first check if the plug is on. It could also be a broken outlet or a faulty extension cord. All malfunctions will be reported to you during the diagnosis by our technician.

A broken power cord can also be the cause of the problem. A bend, a protruding piece of cable, or a small cut can block current. However, a defective power cable can be replaced. The old cable must not be used after a defect has been discovered. For replacement, you need to contact our repair service.

 4 Bosch refrigerator hums

The optimal distance from the refrigerator to other surfaces.

Annoying hum coming from the refrigerator is a common problem. The reasons can be varied:

Seals are porous/cracked

The refrigerator has not been defrosted for too long: the problem is solved by defrosting the appliance.

The unit is too close to the wall: in this case, the technician should simply move the refrigerator a little further away from the wall, because enough air can only circulate at a sufficient distance. This is necessary for the Bosch refrigeration unit to work properly.

If none of these causes can be determined, this may indicate a more serious defect. In this case, you should contact the specialist of our Bosch refrigerator repair center in Jerusalem.

5 Bosch refrigerator does not turn on in a cold room.

When the room temperature is below 10 degrees, the refrigerator thermostat often does not turn on, because that the ambient temperature is almost the same as the temperature inside the refrigerator. It is important that the space around the refrigerator is always slightly warmer than inside the appliance itself.

6. The light in the refrigerator is not on

Usually, the light in a Bosch refrigerator always comes on when you open it. If this is not the case, it quickly gives the impression that the cooling device is broken. However, it is likely that only the lamp failed. A professional technician can check if the refrigerator stays cold and if you can still hear the com

 7 Compressor relay/start relay stops working

The relay is responsible for turning on the compressor. If it is faulty, the compressor will no longer start.

8: Bosch refrigerator compressor blocked

If the compressor is blocked or the internal winding is broken, it can no longer be turned on. If the relay has already been replaced and the problem still persists, the compressor may be defective. In this case, you need to contact a specialist.

9 Defrost thermostat does not turn on

In some Bosch refrigerators with the No Frost function, the defrost thermostat is connected to a fuse. It usually starts after defrosting. Otherwise, the refrigerator will no longer start.

The master also checks the thermostat with a multimeter.

 10: Faulty defrost timer

Bosch No-Frost refrigerators can start the defrost function automatically. If this function is broken, the compressor cannot work properly.

11 The cooling thermostat is defective.

If the cooling unit is not actually cooling anymore, a faulty cooling thermostat may be the cause. A broken thermostat prevents the compressor from turning on.

To test this, the technician needs to remove the thermostat from the refrigerator. thermostat, you should hear the thermostat click.

The master must decide whether to replace the thermostat.

12 Fan motor is defective.

This defect is manifested in the fact that the Bosch refrigerator is quieter than usual, since the fan is no longer audible. After several checks, the technician decides whether the fan needs to be replaced.

13 Faulty Bosch refrigerator control board.

The control board takes care of temperature control and starts the defrost function in No Frost refrigerators. For Bosch refrigerators with a built-in screen, one of the signs of a control board malfunction is the absence of an image on the display.

To make a reliable diagnosis, you can contact the specialists of the above category in Jerusalem. Our technician examines the refrigerator and always makes the right decision.

Using a multimeter in constant current mode, you can determine the malfunction of the display board. Insulating gloves are also absolutely essential here.

Preventing refrigerator defects in the long run

Prevent damage to your Bosch refrigerator.

There are a few things you can do to increase the run time of your refrigerator and prevent premature failure:

1. Defrost your refrigerator regularly! You should defrost your refrigerator and freezer at least once a year. Waiting too long can result in constant operating noises. In addition, a thick layer of ice significantly increases the power consumption of the device.

2.Cleaning the condenser coils: In order to properly dissipate heat evenly, it is important to clean the condenser coils regularly. This works with a vacuum cleaner or a brush. It is important that the device is turned off during cleaning. The coils on the back of the unit should be cleaned about once a year, and those on the bottom twice a year.

Drain pan cleaning. To prevent the refrigerator from leaking, it is necessary to clean the drain pan regularly. One cleaning cycle per year is sufficient here.

When should you buy a new Bosch refrigerator?

The service life of any household appliance is very limited. At the latest, when the coolant leaks out, it’s time for a replacement. Basically, however, we can say that after 10 – 15 years, the purchase of a new refrigerator is ripe. This is mainly due to energy consumption.

Inefficient old devices often consume too much electricity. This puts a strain on the environment and the family budget.
