That weird humming or rattling from your
0:02
LG fridge. Let's figure out what's
0:04
causing it. When your LG refrigerator
0:06
compressor starts making noise, it can
0:08
be annoying, but most of the time it's
0:11
an easy fix. First, check if your fridge
0:13
is level. An unbalanced fridge can cause
0:16
the compressor to vibrate and create
0:18
noise. Place a level on top or just give
0:20
it a gentle rock. If it wobbles, adjust
0:23
the feet at the bottom until it's
0:24
steady. Next, listen. Is the noise a
0:27
gentle hum or more of a loud rattling?
0:30
A steady hum is normal for most fridges,
0:33
but loud buzzing or clanking could mean
0:36
something's loose. Check the back panel
0:39
for anything touching the compressor.
0:41
Sometimes even a misplaced wire or
0:44
bottle can cause vibration. Also, make
0:47
sure there's enough space behind your
0:49
fridge. If it's too close to the wall,
0:51
the compressor can rattle against it.
0:53
Pull your fridge out a few inches to
0:55
give it breathing room. If the noise is
0:57
still there and your food is staying
0:59
cold, you're probably okay. But if you
1:02
hear grinding or if the fridge isn't
1:04
cooling, it's time to call a pro. So
1:07
before you panic, try these simple
1:09
steps. Sometimes a little adjustment is
1:11
all it takes to keep your LG fridge
