2. How to handle some common errors of Toshiba refrigerators

Check out how to fix some common Toshiba refrigerator errors at home below!

2.1. Toshiba refrigerator is still running but not cold enough

If the Toshiba refrigerator has the phenomenon of not being supplied with enough cold air, please check the following parts:

• Thermostat: Usually, the refrigerator will be set at 0°C, and the freezer will be around -17°C. Everyone check to see if the device is within this temperature level. If unfortunately the knob is at the wrong temperature, please adjust it so the refrigerator can operate normally again
• Food: People need to put less food outside the refrigerator, because the amount of food inside the refrigerator exceeds the allowed capacity and the refrigerator will not work well.
• Door: Everyone check the rubber gaskets of the refrigerator door and make sure that the door is completely closed tightly to prevent cold air from escaping from the refrigerator to the outside environment.
• Avoid opening and closing the refrigerator continuously for short periods of time, because this will cause cold air to escape, reducing the amount of cold air provided to food.
• Defrost unit: If the refrigerator is covered with frost, cold air is lost, causing “paralysis” of the cooling system’s operation, making the device not cold. At this point, you need to clean the refrigerator and check again.
• Gas: It could be because the refrigerator is out of gas, in which case people need to contact the warranty center for professional repair support.

2.2. Toshiba refrigerator is leaking water

Possible causes of Toshiba refrigerators leaking water include:

• The tray is cracked or broken, causing water to spill out. The drain pipe is clogged with dirt, causing water to not flow down to the receiving plate but spill out the door.
• The water supply is damaged, or the water supply line is leaking. In this case, the water supply pipe may be cracked or the water supply connection is loose.
• The device control system was broken so the ice compartment could not be frozen, the ice and food inside were defrosted and water leaked out.

To fix this problem, people need to replace damaged equipment and tighten pipes. Users should regularly check the water tray and pour out excess water in case it overflows. In addition, people should also regularly clean and unclog drainage pipes to avoid impacting refrigerator equipment, leading to cracks and damage.

2.3. Toshiba refrigerator makes noise

If the Toshiba refrigerator makes unpleasant noises with a high frequency, people can check and fix it with the following steps:

• Check and firmly fix the 4 legs of the cabinet, place the cabinet on a flat and solid surface
• Clean the blower motor and reinstall it after you have cleaned it to reduce noise.
• If the Toshiba refrigerator is frozen, people only need to wait a few minutes for the defrost relay to automatically reduce noise.

Each noise coming from the refrigerator can represent a separate error, so everyone needs to check carefully to find the right solution.

2.4. Toshiba refrigerator reports an error that the door does not close tightly

One of the most common errors is that the Toshiba refrigerator reports an error that the door does not close tightly. To solve it, you can follow the steps below:

• Check and remove objects that prevent the refrigerator door from closing
• Reduce cabinet door weight by removing heavy foods from the side of the door
• Check the refrigerator door hinges and gaskets, adjust accordingly to ensure that the cold door is tightly closed.

Above is a summary of common error codes of Toshiba refrigerators. Hopefully this sharing article will help people solve problems more effectively, help protect the refrigerator as well as increase the shelf life of the refrigerator.
