Possible Causes
Temperature set too low, Faulty fridge temperature sensor, Damper stuck open, Poor food placement near vents
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Simple adjustments:
- Increase the fridge temperature setting by 1–2 degrees and monitor for 24 hours.
- Move sensitive items (like vegetables and drinks) away from direct airflow vents.
Component checks:
- If overcooling persists, the fridge sensor may be misreading; replacing the NTC sensor often resolves this.
- Inspect the air damper to ensure it is not stuck fully open; replace if necessary.
