Possible Causes

High room humidity, cold cabinet surfaces, poor air circulation around unit, door gasket leaks increasing moisture load

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: No internal electrical work is required.

  • Improve room conditions: Use a dehumidifier or air conditioning to reduce room humidity.
  • Increase airflow: Ensure adequate clearance around the unit and avoid enclosing it tightly in cabinetry without ventilation.
  • Check door gasket: Inspect and replace if leaking, as excess moisture entering the cabinet can cool and condense on outer surfaces.
