Jenn-Air Refrigeration Repair in Woburn
Woburn is next door, so Jenn-Air calls here tend to be about specific components rather than whole-appliance failures — a lighting panel that has gone dark on one side, an ice maker that has stopped, a door that no longer closes itself.
Flat $95 service call — the trip and the diagnosis — credited against the repair if you approve one. 8:00 am – 8:00 pm, seven days.
Interior lighting is a board, not a bulb
The interior lighting in these columns is an LED assembly driven by its own small board rather than a lamp in a socket. When one wall of the compartment goes dark and the other stays lit, that is the assembly or its driver rather than anything to do with cooling. It is worth saying plainly because it worries people far more than it should: a lighting fault does not mean the refrigeration is in trouble.
Ice makers and the supply behind them
An ice maker that has stopped completely usually points at supply rather than at the module. Saddle valves that have been in place for years seize part-open, filters that are overdue restrict flow, and a fill tube that has iced once will ice again until the reason is dealt with. Working through supply, fill, harvest and compartment temperature in that order is what keeps a module from being replaced for nothing.
Doors that no longer pull themselves shut
A heavy panel door on a cam or spring closer should take itself the last inch. When it does not, the unit is being left fractionally open several times a day, which produces frost in the freezer and a fresh-food side that reads high in the afternoon. Adjustment first, parts only if adjustment does not hold.
Cost
Quoted in full before anything is opened
Flat $95 service call covering the visit and full diagnosis, credited against the repair once you approve it. The bands below are where most repairs land once the fault is known.
- Door gasket or seal replacement$290–$760
- Evaporator or condenser fan motor$320–$650
- Defrost heater, thermostat or sensor$280–$680
- Ice maker, water valve or supply line$300–$700
- Electronic control board$480–$920
- Compressor or sealed-system repair$1,000–$2,330
Worth repairing? A comparable new unit runs $8,270 to $19,510
A comparable built-in refrigerator, appliance only — before delivery, installation, custom panels or cabinetry work. Undercounter and wine units sit below this band; a column replacement is usually two purchases rather than one.
What moves a job inside its band
Which circuit failed
A door seal, a fan motor, a defrost heater and a sealed system sit at very different points on the same range. What failed decides most of the figure before anything else does.
Whether the part is still made
A current platform part arrives in days. A superseded board or a discontinued evaporator means a supersession lookup and a longer wait, and that shows up in the quote honestly.
What it takes to reach it
A hillside house with the unit backed onto an exterior wall, or a column boxed in by a stone counter, is more work to open than a unit that rolls forward. Access is quoted, not discovered.
One trip or two
If the part is on the van it finishes that day. If not, the return is inside the quoted figure rather than added to it afterwards.

A sheet of ice kept forming across the floor of our under-counter freezer. The drain had silted up with fluff. He flushed it, fitted a new drain clip, and told me how often to pull the vent panel.

Our lower level unit tripped its breaker during the heat. He found a bulging fan capacitor and a wiring nut backed off in the base. Both fixed, then he checked the circuit load before switching it on.

Ours backs onto an exterior wall on the hill side and it simply could not keep up in the cold snap. He found the condenser fan turning at half speed and the coil furred over. Both put right that morning.
