"Untersuchen" is mainly for things, where you don't know the outcome of. Like crime cases or experiments in a laboratory.
Der Fall wird noch untersucht. (The case is still investigated.)
"Überprüfen" is to check, if something is the way it should be.
Wir überprüfen die Kühlschränke. (We are checking the fridges. (If they still cool, the way they should.)
