A Woodland Hills fridge and five from the towns around it, straight from our technicians’ notes. Median Woodland Hills fridge repair: $390.
The job came in as a Samsung whose freezer wasn’t cooling. When our technician arrived, the fridge’s own Family Hub screen was showing a “Fridge Manager: Abnormal Temperature” warning for the freezer.
The label inside dates this Samsung (model RF24BB6900AWAA) to February 2022, so it was not yet five years old. It runs on R-600a, 78 grams of it according to that label. He quoted a Freon recharge for the freezer, and the recharge was done.
His notes end with two more words: “No warranty.” This recharge went out without the parts-and-labor cover listed further down the page.

David was the best !! Diagnosis was spot on !
Most of our Woodland Hills refrigerator files carry only the customer’s complaint, with no write-up of what was found, so we can’t tell those stories. These five come from Tarzana, Canoga Park, Chatsworth and ZIP 91304, each with the technician’s full notes. The dark strip on each card puts the job in one line. Each dollar figure is the whole invoice to the nearest five dollars; the $85 diagnostic sits inside it, not on top.
The complaint was no power at all. Nothing in the refrigerator had failed: the outlet it was plugged into was dead, and our technician traced that back to the house breaker.
He moved the fridge and freezer to a different outlet so they could keep running until the breaker is replaced, and did preventive maintenance on the unit while he was there.
No appliance fault · $600 with maintenance
The request was simply that the doors needed adjusting. The door hinges had been bent, and that was what opened the gap between the two doors.
Our technician adjusted and repaired the hinges until the doors closed properly. His notes name no new parts.
Hinges adjusted, no parts · about $205
The freezer was holding temperature; the fresh-food side wasn’t. Our technician found a broken door switch, and because of it the damper fan had been running continuously.
We replaced the switch. The fan was still working, but after running non-stop it might not last, so he quoted the owner about $230 for a new one in case it fails. There is no later visit in our records.

The complaint was an LG that wasn’t cooling properly, and its condenser coil was caked in dust.
We replaced the filter drier, fitted a proper access valve, purged the sealed system with nitrogen, recovered the old refrigerant, brazed, evacuated and recharged it with R600a to the manufacturer’s spec, then updated the control-board firmware. The coil cleaning was on us. The quote did not list a compressor; its last line says compressor replacement is available under warranty if required.
Sealed system serviced · about $915
A built-in Monogram side-by-side that was not cooling properly. Our technician’s recommended repair was a new sealed-system compressor, and he also recommended a new main control board “to ensure proper compressor and cooling system operation.”
Both were done. We replaced the compressor with a new filter drier and access valve, recovered, brazed, evacuated and recharged the system with R134a, put in a new main board, and checked that it was cooling properly before leaving.
