I just bought a home and it was bank owned. The bank installed new appliances to sell, but it seems they installed the fridge incorrectly. Will not get cold and styrofoam still attached where I dont think it is supposed to me. I don't want to break anything.

My Whirlpool dryer model #LER7648PT1 stopped tumbling. I was cleaning the inside of it and turned it the wrong dirrection apparently and I heard a loud noise. It works but the tub doesn't turn now.

1.30Gas water heater pilot light going out?
Q.We have recently had maintenance done to our water heater for the pilot light not staying lit. They replaced the the thermocoupler and said that should fix it but may not and if it goes out again it might cost us $300 next time. This is after we already paid $175 for the first repair. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
A.Assuming the maintenance or repair was done properly and it is not a draft issue or burner bowing it out on shut down the culprit is probably the gas control.
The control has an internal limit wired in with the thermocouple circuit that drops out the thermocouple when overheating takes place.
Sediment buildup in the bottom of the tank can also cause this as it will hold more heat and affect the limit.
This limit can reset itself when the temperature drops back down but like any mechanical switch it can reset but not have good contact explaining why it doesn't stay lit consistently.
This is an internal part of the gas control and would have to be replaced as one unit.
Not worth the repair unless it was in warranty.

1.10How much should an electrician charge to change a circuit breaker?
Q.Our stove stopped working. Appliance man came out and said the circuit breaker needed to be changed (wrong size, loose fitting). About how much should I expect to pay electrician?
A.Slippery slope. First Appliance repair means they don't know enough to get a real job. Leading a trade will sometimes get you paying more, ie you phone a plumber and tell him your hot water tank is gone, he will show up with a hot water tank, and sometimes even if it isnt gone, to save the time of returning it he will install it and charge you. I suggest you check the stove, is your start stop bake timer engaged, is your stove old, is the breaker in the panel old or new. If your breaker is newer, and if it is the first time it has gone off, chances are its the stove. If the breaker is the wrong size, which is probably bs, your breaker going off should be a somewhat regular occurence. 20 min on google should sort that out most stove breakers are the same size amperage wise. Loose fitting? I doubt you could fit an innapropriate( not made for it) breaker in the wrong panel. The amperage rating on the breaker is usually right on the individual breaker. If you do phone an electrician dont lead him or her just tell them the stove breaker popped and leave them alone, if they know what they are doing itll be quicker, and possibly less expensive than if they have to listen to the customer for twenty minutes

1.00Need names of companies which provide home service agreement plans for air conditioning, appliance, in s.fla?
Q.
A.American Home Shield
They have an excellent plan for under $500/yr. Service calls are $55 each to repair or replace. Some items have a 30 day waiting period for new customers. They cover not only appliances, but electrical, and plumbing as well.
I have used them for years.
In one year they replaced my 38 year old (orig. to the house) hot water heater, 38 year old (orig. to the house) dishwasher, and 38 year old (org. to the house) paper duct work. Each time it only cost me the service call. All work is guaranteed by the contractor for 90 days.
We recently moved, and they warranty my new house as well.

1.00Appliance repair?
Q.I have a modern maid gas wall oven #pko191 that is 75 degrees hotter than indicated on the control knob
A.It is hard to give a difinitive answer not knowing how old this oven is.
Most likely unless you can do it yourself any repair is going to be fairly costly. ... say over $100 since you'd have to pay for someone to come out.
An alternative is to get a thermometer for your oven. There is the very inexpensive kind which usually hangs off the rack and you can see through the window or have to open the door to read.d
You can also get a slightly more expensive kind which reads remotely so you don't have to open the door.
Then always make a note to set the oven to 50 or so degrees less than the recipe calls for. Then use the thermometers for a double check as you cook things.
I had to deal with this in an old house I rented some time ago.
best,
cez

1.00What is the hourly charge for in-home appliance repair?
Q.The appliance is a Whirpool electric range purchased in November of 2006. I live in the midwest-Indiana. Is a Whirpool tech more costly than a business which services several brands of appliances? Thanks for your replies.
A.Generally a Whirlpool tech is familiar with all brands. It just depends on who you get in to service your appliance.
I've seen them charge anywhere from $80 per hour all the way up to $150.00 per hour.
If you go with like Sear's they usually charge in between because they compete with the small home town appliance techs.
