Refrigerator or other Appliances (Not Working)
My appliance has stopped working.
- If the outlet your appliance is plugged into no longer works, check to see if any GFCI’s, breakers, or fuses have been tripped. If there is power at the outlet, then the problem is most likely with your appliance.
- Typically, residential refrigerators should not be plugged into a GFCI circuit. If your equipment trips out the GFI, it’s time for a new appliance.
- If your refrigerator or freezer is plugged into an outlet that has stopped working, get an extension cord designed for large appliances and use a different outlet until an electrician resolves the problem.
