Wine cooler makes loud rattling or banging noise inside the cabinet during operation

Safety: Unplug the unit before removing interior panels or touching the fan.

• Secure shelves and bottles: Ensure all shelves are properly seated and bottles are not touching the cabinet walls or each other excessively.
• Access evaporator fan: Remove interior shelves and the rear inner panel. Inspect the fan blade for contact with ice, wiring, or insulation.
• Clear obstructions: Remove any ice buildup around the fan and secure loose wires away from the blade.
• Tighten hardware: Tighten screws holding the evaporator, fan bracket, and inner panel to reduce vibration.
• Test operation: Reassemble, restore power, and listen for noise. If the fan motor is still noisy, consider replacing the evaporator fan motor.
