KitchenAid Refrigerator; Oven/stove Repair – North Canton, OH (KSRS27FGSS14, KEWD105HSS1)

A North Canton customer called after having a plumber hook up water for ice on their KitchenAid refrigerator, but water was leaking and the plumber said it was the fridge leaking. They also couldn’t power on the warmer under their oven. We found both issues needed simple part replacements.

The Problem

The customer had a plumber hook up water for ice, but it was leaking and the plumber said it’s the fridge leaking. Additionally, they were unable to power on the warmer under the oven on their KitchenAid appliances.

Diagnosis

We diagnosed a faulty water valve on the refrigerator causing the leak after the water line hookup. The warmer under the oven had a failed cycling thermostat preventing it from powering on.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: WP4450934 cycling thermostat, W10408179 water inlet valve
• Work performed: Installed a new cycling thermostat on the warmer and a new water valve on the fridge
• Result: Both appliances restored to full function with no more leaking and working warmer

Is It Worth Repairing?

KitchenAid makes reliable appliances that are typically worth repairing, especially when the fixes involve straightforward component replacements like thermostats and water valves. These models are well-built and should provide many more years of service with proper maintenance.

Maintenance Tips for KitchenAid Refrigerators and Ovens

• Replace water filters every 6 months and check water line connections annually to prevent leaks
