It’s not the outlet because I ran an extension cord from an outlet I know was working.

No lights, no sound, nothing.

Anyone know any good refrigerator repair people? Or some obvious problem i’m Overlooking?



Update:thanks quiet tiger! Let’s see if it stays on and cooling now

Checked the breaker, everything else on in kitchen. Ran an extension cord from other room to make sure it wasn’t outlet.
Power is getting there...just not making anything happen as far as I can tell

Check one of the GFI receptacles to see if it needs to be reset.

I figured it was a Samsung or LG. My 5 year old LG has been a tPOS. I'm going to throw it out on the curb soon. I refuse to spend any money on that thing.

The guy who came and serviced our Fridgeaire told us that the only fridge he would buy is a Whirlpool side by side fridge. Pretty much the less bells and whistles on your fridge, the better.

Outlet not the issue. Plugged something else in and it works fine. Bathroom GFCI was tripped by apparently that’s not the issue

I've been looking at Kitchen Aid. I did zero research when I bought this one. Just walked into Best Buy and found a stainless one for around $1500 that would fit in our new place.

Is it worth it to fix it? It was a 1500$ fridge that I got for half price because the packing had a crushed corner. Nothing wrong with the fridge when I got it
