How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the freezer before working on the control board or compressor wiring.
- Check compressor wiring: Inspect the harness from the control board to the compressor for damage or loose connectors.
- Inspect control board: Look for a burnt or cracked compressor relay on the PCB.
- Listen for relay click: When the unit calls for cooling, you should hear a relay click. If not, the relay or control logic may be faulty.
- Replace control board: If the relay is damaged or not operating, replace the main control board with the correct Hotpoint-Ariston module.
