If your refrigerator quit working totally, the main thing to check is the thermostat — odds are that you need a new one.

If your unit is making peculiar or loud commotions, this could be an indication that the compressor engine is coming up short or the fan is broken.

If the fridge is leaking, a stuffed drain hose or defrost drain opening could be at fault. Otherwise, the gasket around the door could be broken.

If your fridge is experiencing difficulty keeping up its temperature, the thermostat, door gasket, or a blocked drain could all be at fault.

In the event that liquid has collected in the fresh food compartments of your fridge, it could be the consequence of broken door seals.

Usually, this is caused by a tripped, off-balance switch from an imbalanced load that can be easily fixed by redistributing clothes. Otherwise, you might have an issue with your outlet or the timer circuitry.

If you have a damaged pump, worn out drive belt, or a clogged drain hose, then water will remain in the drum. If it doesn’t drain properly, then it could lead to serious problems.

When clothes are soaked at the end of a cycle, it may indicate that the washer is not spinning. This could be due to a broken lid switch or lid plunger, broken or worn-out drive belt, burned-out spin solenoid, damaged wires, or a bad timer contact.

If you notice the vibration, your washer may not be leveled or could be located on weakened wood floors. Snubber pads or worn damper pads might also be the reason.

Stuffed drain pipes, excess soap, loose hoses, and leaking tubs, pumps, or tub water injection hoses may be the reasons for leaks and other damages.

There are many reasons for no agitation, including a drive spindle, worn drive belt, wigwag plunger/lifter, transmission mode lever, or an agitator assembly. It may also be caused by a bad internal timer contact, defective lid switch, or a broken pressure switch.

There may be sediment buildup in the valve or the cold water valve may be turned off.

A broken timer contact or a sediment-clogged cold water valve may be the reason for soap left in your clothes.

Spots that aren’t removed with soap and water may be caused by the oil from an unfunctional transmission.

Low water pressure (below 20 psi), can hold back the water supply to your ice machine. Additionally, when the water inlet valve is out of order, the water supply is cut off.

Clogged filters easily prevent the flow of water to your ice maker, thereby preventing ice production.

If cubes look oversized, a leaky water inlet valve may be the reason.

If your machine is too warm, then production will decrease, because the ice maker takes much longer to produce a batch of ice.

The water may be shut down if the temperature is too high due to other appliances, such as a dishwasher pumping hot water into the cold water line.

If there’s a clogged water filter or supply line, issues may cause the evaporator to freeze because of a low water flow, thereby creating undersized cubes or ending production.

It must be between zero and five degrees Fahrenheit for it to properly work.

This switch may be either damaged or possibly turned off in some cases.

This usually happens because of a bad switch.

Exchange it for another burner to see if it is the burner, the receptacle, or the actual switch.

This may be because of a damaged self-clean latch switch or function selector.

A defective bake igniter or valve may be the issue, which may need new parts.

In most cases, this is because of a bad or damaged switch.

You might have to replace your bake or broil heating elements. Depending on the type of oven you may have, this could happen for other reasons. Call Panther to discuss with experts.

A defective bake oven igniter, temperature sensor, or selector switch may be the problem.

When the dryer doesn’t work, check to see if a circuit break has been tripped or if it is unplugged. You might also have a broken thermostat, defective terminal block, or damaged start switch.

Clogged vents, a bad thermostat, or defective heating coils might lead to overheating. If your dryer gets too hot, it creates a potentially dangerous situation and should be taken care of right away.

If the dryer drum is spinning but not giving off any heat, it may be due to a defective fuse, thermostat, temperature switch, or heating coils.

If the motor in your dryer is running effectively, but the drum doesn’t spin, it’s most likely due to a broken belt. A bad roller, motor, or idler pulley could also be the cause.

Dishwashers that runs too long may experience issues when finishing the cycle. If that happens, then it could be the thermostat keeping the cycle from progressing or your timer may be broken.

Reasons why your dishwasher may not load with water can be a damaged water inlet solenoid, a broken valve, a damaged overflow switch, or even a defective timer.

Too much or incompatible soap is a common cause of leaks. The issue could also be worn-out door gaskets, tub-to-motor gaskets, spray arm assemblies, or a leaking pump/motor assembly.

A stuffed drain line, worn down drain solenoid, or a drain impeller could all be reasons preventing water from being properly removed from your dishwasher.

Cloudiness possibly indicates a poor rinsing prior to loading or extremely hard water throughout the house that may require a softener. Contact Panther for more advice.

In the event that you see that your dishwasher makes humming noises and then shuts off, it likely means the machine needs a new motor. We can help you clearly determine if this is the case.

When dishes are not properly cleaned, it may be due to clogged spray armholes, a worn-out pump assembly or wash impeller, or a burned-out heating element.

If you’re certain the microwave is connected to the outlet and the door is shut closed, the problem is likely to be the circuit. If the electrical current gets very strong or you shut the microwave door very hard, it could bring the breaker to blow. If reinstalling the circuit works, you may have a defective door switch.

This may be the result of foil or utensils in the microwave, food splatters that ignite, a shorted high voltage diode, or a broken stirrer resulting from a damaged fan motor or stirrer belt causing heat to focus on one area.

If your turntable isn’t spinning, the carousel may need to be re-adjusted on the turning instrument. It will likewise be brought on by a worn out or split turntable drive bushing. Another issue that can precipitate this is a damaged tray motor.

If your microwave isn’t warming your food and you hear a loud strange noise, you could have a damaged magnetron, capacitor, or diode. This should be reinstalled or repaired by experts. Call Panther for help.

Your microwave’s touch pad may break down from water or insect infestation, stopping you from normally selecting settings for your food. This means you will need to either replace or fix the touch pad for proper function.

This could be for a variety of reasons. Make sure that you check for defective fuses, tripped breakers, and loosened power cords.

Depending on which model it is, this could be due to condenser or compressor issues, thermostat problems, or evaporator fan motor damage.

Compressor models may leak water if the door is still open, door seals are damaged or dirty, or a drain hose is stuffed.

Popping and cracking is normal due to temperature changes, if it’s moderate. If there are vibrating noises, make sure the cooler is leveled. If you hear grinding or squealing, call Panther for service.

Ensure that the surface is leveled. If it is and the problem continues, check for dirty door gaskets or improperly set shelves.
