Possible Causes
Defective or blocked internal circulation fan (if equipped), Warm ambient air entering through lid, Degraded cabinet insulation, Continuous lid opening
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug before accessing internal fans.
Steps:
- Limit lid opening: Open the lid only when necessary to reduce warm air entering the storage area.
- Check lid seal: Inspect the lid gasket (if present) for damage or warping. Replace if it does not seal properly.
- Inspect internal fan: Some models use a small fan to circulate cool air around the ice basket. Access the fan and ensure it spins freely and is not blocked by ice or debris.
- Clean fan and vents: Remove dust and ensure air passages are clear.
- Service if needed: If the fan does not run when it should, replace it with an OBH Nordica-compatible internal circulation fan.
