A Crack Across the Glass Cooktop

Glass-ceramic cooktops are tough, but a dropped pot, a hard knock on the edge, or heavy heat under an empty pan can crack them. Even a hairline crack is a hazard: liquid can run through it to the heating elements and wiring below.

What to do right away:

• Stop using the cooktop, even the zones far from the crack.
• Turn off the circuit at the breaker for the range or cooktop.
• Don't wipe across the crack with a wet cloth.
• Keep children and pets away until it has been looked at.

Preventing the next one:

• Pick heavy pots up rather than dragging them across the glass, cast iron above all.
• Wipe up sugary spills promptly. Many manufacturers advise removing them while the surface is still warm, using a cooktop scraper and an oven mitt, because melted sugar can pit the glass.
• Use the cleaner the manual recommends, not abrasive powders or scouring pads.
• Don't store heavy things in a cabinet right above the cooktop.

When you book, tell the dispatcher the brand and model, which you'll usually find on a label under the cooktop or inside a drawer. The technician will check the glass, the elements and the wiring and replace the top if needed, then test every zone.

A Freezer Drawer That Won't Close All the Way

Bottom-freezer and French-door refrigerators use a pull-out drawer for the freezer. When it won't close completely, warm, humid air gets in, frost spreads, and before long the drawer is even harder to close.

Check these first:

• The baskets. An overfilled basket or a package sticking up at the back can stop the drawer short.
• The slides. Ice on the rails, or a slide that came off its track, keeps the drawer from rolling in.
• The gasket. A torn or folded seal won't close tight.
• The level. If the fridge leans forward, the drawer may not close on its own; the manual explains how to adjust the front feet or rollers.

What to do: empty the drawer, remove the baskets if your model allows, and let any ice on the slides melt, wiping up the water as it goes. Don't hack at the ice with a sharp tool. Put the baskets back in properly and test the drawer.

If ice comes back within days, the gasket is torn, a slide is broken, or frost covers the freezer's back wall, book a visit. A defrost fault or a worn gasket is often the root cause.

Power Back, but the Fridge Is Still Warm

After a storm, the lights come back on and the refrigerator doesn't seem to. Before calling, run through a few checks.

• The breaker. A surge can trip the kitchen circuit even when the rest of the house has power.
• The plug and the outlet. Make sure the plug is fully seated, and test the outlet with a lamp.
• The controls. Some models go back to default settings or show a power-failure alert that needs clearing; the manual explains how.
• The compressor delay. Many refrigerators wait several minutes before the compressor restarts.
• Time. A fridge that warmed up during a long outage needs several hours to cool down again. Keep the doors shut while it does.

If the fridge is silent after half an hour, clicks without starting, or still isn't cold after several hours, book a visit. Meanwhile, food that sat above 40°F for 2 hours or more should be thrown out, per USDA.

Ice on the Freezer Floor

A sheet of ice on the bottom of the freezer usually means the defrost water isn't draining. During each defrost cycle, frost melts off the coil and runs to a drain at the back; when ice or debris blocks that drain, the water freezes on the floor instead. Humid air slipping past a worn gasket adds to it. You can melt the ice with the fridge unplugged and towels down, but it will come back until the drain is cleared. A technician can clear the drain, test the defrost heater, check the gasket and confirm the water reaches the pan under the fridge.
