How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before removing panels. Use caution around live circuits if testing voltage.
- Check power source: Verify the outlet has power by plugging in another device. Ensure the circuit breaker is not tripped.
- Inspect power cord and plug: Look for visible damage. Replace the cord if necessary.
- Confirm control settings: Make sure the unit is switched on and not in standby mode. Set the temperature to a colder setting.
- Listen for any operation: When powered, listen for clicks, fan noise, or compressor hum. Total silence suggests a control or power issue.
- Access control board: Remove the control panel or rear cover to inspect the main control board for burnt components or loose connectors.
- Check internal fuse (if equipped): Some Avanti boards have a replaceable fuse. Test and replace with the same rating if blown.
- Component testing: For compressor models, inspect the start relay and overload. For thermoelectric models, inspect the Peltier module and its wiring.
- Replace failed parts: Install an OEM Avanti main control board, compressor start relay, or Peltier module as indicated by testing. If you are not comfortable with electrical diagnostics, contact a technician.
