Possible Causes

Damaged or dirty door gasket, Frequent door openings in humid environment, Failed door frame anti-condensation heater (if equipped), Poor door alignment

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: No internal electrical work is required for basic checks; unplug only if removing panels.

  • Clean gasket: Wipe the door seals with warm soapy water to remove grease and debris that prevent proper sealing.
  • Check for gaps: Close the door on a sheet of paper and pull it out around the perimeter. If it slides out easily in spots, the seal is weak there.
  • Adjust hinges: Align the door so the gasket contacts evenly.
  • Heater check: On models with a door frame heater, if condensation is excessive, the heater circuit may have failed and may require professional diagnosis and replacement.
