Describe the appliance behavior instead of guessing the part: not starting, leaking, not heating, not cooling, making noise, stopping early, or showing a message. For refrigerator requests, common details include refrigerator not cooling, food freezing or temperature swings, and water leaks.
Cooling problems can involve airflow, dirty coils, fans, sensors, a compressor issue, or control failures. Share whether the appliance shows a code, makes a new sound, leaks, smells hot, or stops at the same point each time.

Describe the order of events, especially if sound, heat, water, cooling, movement, or display behavior changed together. It also helps to know which basic functions still respond, such as lights, controls, fans, pumps, motors, heat, cooling, or door locks. If water is spreading, protect the area only where it is safe and do not reach into standing water around electrical parts. That information helps separate appliance performance issues from immediate stop-use concerns.
Avoid forcing doors, latches, knobs, burners, bins, drawers, or controls. Forced movement can turn a repairable issue into additional damage.
Before the visit is discussed, write down whether refrigerator not cooling, food freezing or temperature swings, and water leaks is constant or intermittent and whether the refrigerator is built-in, stacked, or difficult to access.
