How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before handling wiring or boards.

  • Note when error occurs: Observe if the error appears during compressor start, door opening, or randomly. This can help identify vibration- or moisture-related issues.
  • Check all sensor connections: Inspect and reseat connectors for cabinet, evaporator, and ambient thermistors on the main control board.
  • Secure wiring harnesses: Ensure harnesses are clipped and tied away from vibrating components like the compressor and fans.
  • Use surge protection: Plug the wine cooler into a quality surge protector to reduce future control glitches from power spikes.
  • Monitor operation: If the error becomes more frequent or cooling is affected, replace the main control board to prevent complete failure.
