How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before accessing switch wiring.
Steps:
- 1. Locate door/bin switch: Identify the switch on the cabinet frame or inside the bin area. It may be a small plastic plunger or a hidden magnetic reed switch.
- 2. Check alignment: Ensure the door or bin front aligns properly with the switch or magnet. Adjust hinges or mounting screws if the door is sagging.
- 3. Test switch: Use a multimeter to check continuity while opening and closing the door. Replace the switch if it does not change state.
- 4. Inspect magnet: For magnetic systems, verify the magnet is still present in the door trim and has not fallen out.
- 5. Replace faulty parts: Install a new door switch or magnet as required, ensuring secure mounting and correct wiring.
