Possible Causes
Door switch misalignment, Slight temperature fluctuations near alarm threshold, Faulty buzzer circuit on control board
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Most alarm troubleshooting can be done with power on; avoid touching live terminals.
- Check door switch and gasket: Ensure the door fully closes and the switch is actuated. Adjust hinges or replace gasket if needed.
- Verify setpoints and alarm settings: Some models allow alarm temperature adjustments. Set them appropriately for your storage needs.
- Stabilize environment: Reduce frequent door openings and avoid placing the unit in areas with large ambient temperature swings.
- Control board: If alarms continue without cause, the buzzer or alarm circuit on the control board may be faulty. Replace the main control PCB if necessary.
