Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the freezer before accessing internal components.

  • Check sensor mounting: Ensure the sensor is mounted as designed and not directly taped to the coldest part of the evaporator unless specified.
  • Inspect for moisture: Moisture ingress into the sensor connector can cause shorts. Dry and clean connectors if needed.
  • Replace sensor: If readings are clearly wrong or the sensor is shorted, install a new Ariston NTC sensor.

When to call a technician: If H2 persists, the control board may require professional evaluation.
