Possible Causes

Faulty electronic thermostat circuit on PCB, Sticking mechanical thermostat (on simpler models), Incorrect sensor calibration, Loose thermostat capillary bulb (if fitted)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect from mains before accessing controls.

Steps:

  • 1. Check user settings: Ensure the temperature setpoint is correct and that any fast-freeze or holiday modes are not engaged.
  • 2. Mechanical thermostat models: If your Belling freezer uses a rotary thermostat, remove the control housing and inspect the thermostat and capillary bulb. Ensure the bulb is firmly clipped to the evaporator or liner and not kinked.
  • 3. Test thermostat: For mechanical types, check continuity across the thermostat terminals while slowly turning the knob. Replace if it does not switch reliably.
  • 4. Electronic models: If sensors are known good but E9 persists, the thermostat function within the main PCB may be faulty. Inspect the PCB and replace if necessary.

Tip: After replacing a thermostat or PCB, allow 24 hours for temperatures to stabilize before judging performance.
