Symptom
Clicking noise from the rear of the wine cooler; compressor attempts to start but shuts off repeatedly.
Compressor Start Failure
Symptom
Condensation forming on the inside of the glass door or on bottles.
High Humidity / Door Seal Issue
Symptom
Control panel unresponsive; cannot change temperature or turn unit on/off, but display may be lit.
User Interface Lockup / Control Failure
Symptom
Display is completely blank; unit appears dead, but outlet has power.
No Power to Control Board
Symptom
Display works but temperature reading does not change over time, even when the interior clearly warms or cools.
Stuck or Failed Temperature Sensor
Symptom
Door gasket is torn, cracked, or not sealing, leading to warm spots and condensation.
Door Gasket Failure
Symptom
Door will not close properly or pops open slightly after being shut.
Door Alignment / Hinge or Gasket Issue
Symptom
Excessive frost or ice buildup on the rear interior wall or around the evaporator area.
Defrost System Failure or Air Infiltration
Symptom
Exterior sides or top of the wine cooler feel very hot to the touch.
High Cabinet Surface Temperature
Symptom
High-pitched squealing or chirping noise from inside the cabinet, especially when cooling starts or stops.
Evaporator Fan Bearing Wear
Symptom
Interior light not working when door is opened, but cooler otherwise operates normally.
Interior Lighting Failure
Symptom
Persistent musty or moldy odor inside the wine cooler.
Microbial Growth / Drain Contamination
Symptom
Wine cooler interior temperature fluctuates widely; large swings above and below the setpoint.

Symptom
Wine cooler interior too cold; bottles or labels show signs of freezing, even at moderate setpoints.
Overcooling / Thermostat Control Fault
Symptom
Wine cooler leaking water onto the floor from the front or rear.
Condensate Drain Blockage or Misrouting
Symptom
Wine cooler makes loud humming, buzzing, or rattling noises during operation.
Mechanical Vibration or Fan Noise
Symptom
Wine cooler not cooling at all; interior is at room temperature, lights may work but compressor is silent.
Compressor Not Running
Symptom
Wine cooler runs constantly but does not reach set temperature; compressor and fans are running almost all the time.
Poor Cooling Performance / Sealed System Inefficiency
Symptom
Wine cooler trips the household circuit breaker or RCD when it starts.
