Frequently Asked Questions - KitchenAid Appliance Repair in San Diego

KitchenAid appliances are well known for their quality and durability, but over time, they can sometimes develop problems. If you notice an issue, it's a good idea to contact MD Appliance LLC.

First, check if the condenser coils are covered with dust. This is the most common and easiest cause of cooling problems in KitchenAid refrigerators. If the unit is running but not cooling, other likely issues include a broken evaporator fan motor, a problem with the defrost system, or a faulty start relay on the compressor. Give us a call for a same-day diagnosis.

The most common reasons for this problem are a clogged drain filter, a blocked drain hose, or a faulty drain pump. Begin by cleaning the filter at the bottom of your dishwasher. This often solves the issue. If you still see standing water after cleaning, the drain pump may need to be replaced. If you need help, give us a call. We handle this KitchenAid issue all the time.

For gas KitchenAid ovens, a weak or failed igniter is the most common issue. If the igniter glows but does not light the burner within 15-20 seconds, it should be replaced. In electric models, a failed bake or broil element is usually the cause. A faulty temperature sensor or an electronic oven control (EOC) board can also cause heating failures in both gas and electric ovens.

Same-day and next-day appointments are available throughout San Diego County, Monday through Saturday. Call us at 619-339-5682 or book an appointment online.
