Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before working on the door switch or control board.

Steps:

  • Check door status: If the display shows the door as open when it is closed, the door sensor is likely faulty or misaligned.
  • Adjust magnet: Ensure the door magnet aligns with the reed switch. Adjust or replace as needed.
  • Test switch: Use a multimeter to verify the reed switch opens and closes correctly with the magnet.
  • Control board: If the switch works but the light remains on, the light driver on the main PCB may be stuck. Replace the main control board if necessary.
