Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before touching the control module.
- Power reset: Unplug the freezer for at least 10 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge. Plug back in and observe if AL08 clears.
- Inspect control board: Access the main PCB (often in a rear or top electronics box). Check for burnt components, bulging capacitors, or insect/moisture contamination.
- Check connectors: Reseat all harness connectors to the board, ensuring no pins are bent or corroded.
If AL08 returns after reset and visual inspection, the main control board is likely defective and should be replaced with an Ignis-compatible module. Programming or configuration may be required; this is best handled by an authorized service technician.
