REFRIGERATOR COMPRESSOR REPAIR NEAR ME FULL
The Freezer compressor was not broken as stated but was full of oil from a previous service person. The original company did the worst repair job ever seen by any Sub Zero Technician. I called their offices and was informed that I had to send an email about my complaint, which i have done. I totally lost all my confidence and trust for this company. After an hour of back and forth conversation and bartering about the price, I told the gentlemen to pack his bags and please leave immediately. He showed up on a Monday and immediately said you have a bad compressor and it would cost $2,000 to fix. I called the company to explain what happened and they said the original serviceman would be there as soon as possible. serviceman and another technician showed up at my home to repair the refrigerator, Well, the bottom line was they replaced the refrigerator compressor but cut the dryer lines to the freezer compressor and now the freezer didn’t work.
I didn’t like his attitude but felt since he reduced his price to $1,200 and had been out to exam the unit, it was only fair to let him finish. I explained the situation to him and he immediately began to negotiate a new price. I immediately called this company and told them to cancel the order since it had only been a few hours since the service technician left our home. So, I called Subzero and another service company to find out if the price was reasonable or was it totally out of line. Meanwhile, another friend say to me that the pricing was way out of line. At first, he convinced us that is was the best investment for the situation. Mind you, this equipment is 30 years old and is supposed to be the top of the line. To make a long story short, he quoted us $2,500 to replace the refrigerator compressor. He immediately began to dismantle the refrigerator and informed us that it was a bad compressor in the refrigerator portion. Our call for service was placed on a Friday and the technician showed up on Monday. That was until a week ago.This service company, with more names than letters in the alphabet, was called upon once again when our Subzero Refrigerator/Freezer seemed to stop cooling.

To answer your original question, the price of a Sub-Zero compressor varies depending on the model. Thermistors are much less expensive and easier to replace, so we definitely recommend verifying the issue before attempting any major repairs. For example, EC 15 on a Sub-Zero refrigerator indicates a problem with the sealed system (compressor), but EC 05 to EC 08 indicates a faulty thermistor. It would help the diagnostic process to check your refrigerator display for fault codes. The compressor is a major component, and is much more expensive than other, more easily replaced parts. There are other potential causes so it is a good idea to check the most common causes for a refrigerator that can’t get cold first. If your refrigerator has a faulty compressor, it would definitely be the reason for your warm refrigerator.
