Community repair guides and troubleshooting for household appliances.

iFixit’s appliance section collects DIY repair information for refrigerators, dishwashers, dryers, washing machines, ovens, small appliances, vacuums, grills, and related equipment. It combines step-by-step guides, troubleshooting pages, forum answers, model information, tool suggestions, and parts links in one repair-focused reference hub.

Why it stands out

  • Covers many appliance classes under one repair-oriented structure instead of separating manuals, parts, and troubleshooting across different sites.
  • Community Q&A surfaces real failure symptoms and fixes alongside formal guides.
  • Includes practical diagnostic references such as wiring diagrams, resistance values, multimeter use, and component testing.
  • Connects repair instructions with relevant tools and part categories, which helps users plan the job before opening the appliance.

Good to know

  • Coverage depth varies by appliance type and model; some entries are broad references rather than a complete repair procedure.
  • Electrical, gas, heating, and refrigerant-related appliance work can carry safety risks and may require professional service.
  • Parts and tool listings are commercial store links, so availability and cost are separate from the free repair content.

Under the radar: If you are repairing a Kenmore appliance, check the related identification pages before choosing parts—the actual manufacturer can differ from the brand name on the front panel.
