Fridge Repairs in Randburg — what we actually see here
The Randburg fridge fault we attend most is the one people fear most and understand least: the fridge has stopped cooling but everything appears to be working. The light is on. Something is humming. And yet the food is warm. That combination points squarely at the cooling system rather than the power supply, and it needs proper testing — compressor circuit, thermostat, evaporator fan, defrost heater, and system pressure where a gas loss is suspected.
The other pattern here is ventilation. Complex kitchens in Ferndale and Windsor are compact, and fridges get pushed hard into alcoves with no room to breathe. A fridge that cannot shed heat will run permanently and fail early, and sometimes the most useful thing we do on a Randburg call-out costs nothing at all: pull it away from the wall.

Fridge repair questions — Randburg
What customers in Randburg ask us most.
The light works but the fridge is warm. What does that tell you?
That the appliance has power, and almost nothing else. The lamp circuit is entirely separate from the cooling system — a fridge can be fully powered and perfectly dead as a refrigerator. The likely culprits are the compressor circuit (often just a start relay), the thermostat, the evaporator fan, the defrost system, or a refrigerant loss. All of them need testing rather than assuming, and this is by far the most common cooling call we take in Randburg.
How much space does a fridge need behind it?
More than most people give it. A fridge dumps the heat it removes from the cabinet through the condenser coils at the back or underneath, and if those coils are hard against a wall or packed with dust the heat has nowhere to go. The compressor then runs and runs, trying to reach a temperature it cannot achieve, and it dies years earlier than it should. Pull the appliance a few centimetres off the wall and clean the coils — it costs nothing and it works.
