I accidentally hooked up a new IKEA (Whirlpool) electric slide-in stove with incorrect wiring. My house has 3-wire 220V setup with black, white, and copper ground. I mistakenly connected the white neutral wire on the stove to the white wire on the house circuit, which was actually a red wire replacement. The stove buzzed, the panel lit up briefly, and then went off with a burning smell. Now the stove does not work. What may I have damaged on the oven, and can you help me?

I have an Amana side-by-side refrigerator/freezer with water and ice dispensers in the freezer door (model SBD21VPSE). It works great for about 24-30 hours, then the water dispenser stops working and everything stops cooling. The fan runs, and it sounds like the compressor is running, but there's no cold. Unplugging it for 1-2 hours and plugging it back in restores functionality for another 24 hours before the issue recurs. What is causing this?

My 1985 Hotpoint side-by-side model WRX22EFB has a freezer temperature of only 20 to 30 degrees, depending on whether the evaporator fan is running. The condenser fan runs constantly, and the evaporator fan runs intermittently. The evaporator coils are not frosted at all and are slightly cold but sweating. What could be causing this issue, and should I replace the evaporator fan motor or is it more likely a control/thermostat problem?

I have a GE side-by-side refrigerator. I replaced the ice maker twice, replaced the water filter, and used hot water in the water tube, but I only got 2 or 5 ice cubes and now no more ice. The ice maker is a week old, and I have been experiencing this issue for weeks. What else can I do to resolve this?

My top-load Whirlpool Cabriolet 500 washer is very loud during the spin cycle, making a roaring noise. This issue has been ongoing for about a month. What could be causing this noise and what can be done to fix it?

I have a Frigidaire double wall oven model FGET3065PFD. After 2 years, the top oven will not keep heat. I have replaced the temperature sensor and both control boards, and both the bake and broil elements work. The oven reaches the set temperature but then falls. What do I need to check now?
