Possible Causes
Intermittent door switch contact, Loose temperature sensor connection, Control board sensitivity or firmware issue
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug before testing switches or sensors.
Steps:
- Door switch: Inspect and test the door switch for intermittent operation. Replace if it does not consistently change state.
- Sensor connections: Reseat connectors for the freezer thermistor and ambient sensor at the main PCB.
- Monitor: After reseating and possible replacement, monitor for recurrence. If alarms persist without cause, a control board update or replacement may be needed.
