Possible Causes
Loose or intermittent NTC sensor connection, Failing thermostat contacts, Control board relay intermittently sticking, Poor door seal causing frequent cycling
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Disconnect power before handling sensors or control boards.
Steps:
- 1. Verify door seal and usage: Ensure the door is not being opened excessively and the gasket seals properly.
- 2. Inspect temperature sensor wiring: Check cabinet and evaporator NTC connections for looseness or corrosion. Reseat connectors.
- 3. Test thermostat (if mechanical): Rotate the knob and listen for distinct clicks. If intermittent or no click, replace the thermostat.
- 4. Monitor operation: Use a thermometer to log temperature over 24 hours. If swings are large despite stable environment, suspect control board or sensor and replace the faulty component.
