How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before inspection.

  • Step 1 – Improve ventilation: Move the unit away from walls and heat sources.
  • Step 2 – Check power cord and plug: Ensure the plug fits tightly in the outlet and the cord is not loose at the strain relief.
  • Step 3 – Inspect thermal protector: Access the compressor area and check the thermal protector for signs of overheating. Replace with a Pro Breeze thermal protector if suspect.
  • Step 4 – Replace control board: If power and thermal components are good, a failing main board may be shutting the unit down prematurely.
