It is not common when you have a refrigerator that makes a lot of noise. Normally it can produce minimal noise due to the compressor that is running. But if it is unusually loud and a lot, this indicates that there is a problem going on with the fridge.
Viking appliances like the Viking fridge have been trusted and used by many over the years. Made to be durable, safe, and long-lasting. But, even a high-end type of appliance can have some problems and may require to have a repair. If you notice that your Viking fridge is making some noise and not working. See what can cause the problems before calling a professional technician. You can do basic troubleshooting to diagnose or determine the cause of the issue with your Viking fridge.
Power Supply
This is the first thing that needs to be taken care of. If the fridge is not working, see to it if the cord is properly plugged into the power supply or outlet. If still not working, check if the outlet has a power supply by plugging in other appliances like a lamp. If the problem has something to do with the outlet, do check right away the circuit breaker or the fuse box. See if there is something that needs to be repaired or replaced. If there is no problem with the outlet, try to adjust the coolness settings of your Viking fridge. If the settings are too low, this can cause the fridge not to work. Another factor is replacing the interior bulb that can also cause the fridge not to work. If all this troubleshooting has been done and the problem persists, consider calling the assistance of Viking refrigerator repair.
Noise problem
This is not an easy repair that can be done and it must be handled by a professional technician. Check and identify if the sound comes from the back, bottom, or inside the freezer. If the noise comes from the fan or the compressor, it needs to be fixed using specialized tools and parts. Professional Viking can handle these repairs.

Viking fridge not cold enough
This can be due to the frost build-up. When the defrost cycle of the fridge is not working, this will cause the build-up of frost. You can resolve this by allowing the unit to warm up to room temperature and allow to defrost. Before doing these steps, make sure to remove all the perishable items from the fridge and the thermostat is set to Off. Leave the fridge doors open for at least 24-48 hours. Make sure that there are towels placed at the bottom to soak all the drippings. Once the fridge is completed defrosted, turn back on the thermostat to normal. This process should allow for the fridge to back to a normal cooling phase. Also, it is important to consider replacing the thermostat, timer, or heater and a Viking ice maker repair can do that for you. Another factor is if the Viking fridge door not sealing. This will allow for the cold air to come out and warm air to come in. Check if the door sealing is not damaged.
