How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: No major hazard, but unplug before accessing switches or boards.
Steps:
- Silence alarm: Use the alarm mute button if available to temporarily silence.
- Check door switch: Follow E9 steps to test and replace the door switch if it does not change state properly.
- Verify temperature: Use a thermometer to confirm interior temperature is within normal range.
- Reset control: Unplug for 10 minutes to clear any latched alarm state, then reconnect.
- Sensor/board: If alarms persist with normal temperature and a good door switch, test/replace the cabinet sensor and, if needed, the main control board.
