Wine cooler makes loud humming or buzzing noise from the rear.

Safety first: Unplug the cooler before touching any moving parts or metal tubing.

Noise reduction steps:

• Identify source: Listen carefully at the rear with the unit running to determine if the noise comes from the fan or compressor.
• Check fan area: Remove the rear panel and inspect the condenser fan. Ensure the blade is not rubbing on the shroud or wiring. Gently bend the shroud or reposition wires as needed.
• Replace noisy fan: If the fan motor is rough or rattling, replace it with a Hoover-compatible condenser fan motor.
• Inspect compressor mounts: Check the rubber grommets under the compressor. If they are cracked or hardened, replace them to reduce vibration.
• Secure tubing: If copper lines are touching the cabinet and vibrating, insert foam or rubber spacers and secure with cable ties.
