“I cannot always be right for sometimes I am left and not right.”
BFG (The Movie)
For this particular post we will explore and learn about 2 of the most commonly used tools by professionals in refrigerator repair.
Repair today for brands like Sub-Zero, Viking, Bosch and many others involve working with, evaluating and testing electronic controls.
Refrigerator repair technicians regularly work with both low voltage DC and high voltage AC applications.
The Digital Multi-Meter
Taking measurements with a multi-meter is how the best refrigerator repair service companies pin point both the issue causing malfunction and the solution for the homeowner.
Better quality multi-meters can check volts, ohms, capacitance, temperature and more.
Most appliances, including Sub-Zero built-in refrigerators, run on 120volts AC.
While inside the unit there will be various controls like an inverter that change the supply voltage around up or down, home refrigerators on Long Island start with 120VAC.
Our repair service will often test refrigerator and freezer defrost heaters and fan motors for 120volts.
Quick Temp Testing
While the multi-meter we use can check temps, our infrared temperature testing tool is our go to and 1st step for all of our long Island refrigerator repair service calls.
Curious to know why?
We take temperature readings as step # 1 because we want to know the exact state and condition of the appliance before we have the doors open too long during disassembly and diagnostics.
Knowing true temperature reading helps us to accurately navigate our quest and find the reason for repair in your home.
This holds true for all brands including Sub-Zero, GE Monogram, Liebherr and more…..

We believe using the right tools is a critical step in quality repair services.
“The right tool makes the job.”
