    Yes, I have the same problem. It is from the mechanical clock. How to get rid of it. It is just annoying!

    I have the same problem with my Whirlpool range, it just started and comes and goes..but it is doing it more and more often....is this dangerous? How do you fix it?

  • Anonymous Feb 15, 2009

    Is it a buzzing or a high pitched whine? I have the very high pitched whining sound when the oven gas turns on (not the range top). Anyone else?

The buzzing you are experiencing is most likely the electric valve solenoid coil.
That is the valve that lets gas in when the stove is turned on.
Another source of buzzing/humming can be a mechanical clock, if hter is one.
If it is digital, then it woul not make noise.

I have an Aprilair humidifier that started making a loud humming/buzzing noise. The water runs OK but the soloniod is burning hot to the touch. Is this normal?

Yeah they do need to be replaced from time to time. Make sure you get a water test kit and check your water hardness. You may need a whole home water filter if it is outside of normal ranges. A pretty easy DIY project and relatively inexpensive at the big box stores

My dryer will not work at all, it just makes a buzzing noise

If the sound is more of a hum than a buzz something has the motor in a bind or the motor has gone bad. Make sure you can turn the drum by hand and if you can not then check for something in the blower wheel.

My whirlpool aide by side fridge icemaker is making buzzing or humming noise

Hello
Welcome to fixya.
I'm Huuum and happy to assist you,


You said, your ice maker is making a buzzing or humming noise ice maker isn't making much ice. . fridge is about 2 1/2 years old.

This sounds like a clogged water line or a electrical short !
I would get service rather than take a chance on electrical fire.
Or burn up the circuit in the ice maker.


Thank you for giving us the opportunity to advise you.
