How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No immediate electrical work is required for this alarm, but unplug before any disassembly.
- Check door closure: Ensure the door is fully closing and the gasket is not obstructed by shelves or bottles.
- Allow recovery time: If the door was open or the unit was recently loaded with warm bottles, allow 12–24 hours for temperature to stabilize.
- Inspect door gasket: Look for tears, gaps, or hardened sections. Close the door on a sheet of paper; if it pulls out easily, the seal may be weak.
- Verify fan operation: Listen for the evaporator fan when the compressor is running. If silent, investigate the fan motor and wiring.
- Check ventilation: Ensure adequate clearance around the cooler and that the rear grille is not blocked with dust.
- Persistent high temp: If temperature does not drop despite proper door seal and ventilation, there may be a sealed system issue (refrigerant leak or failing compressor). This requires a certified refrigeration technician.
