Possible Causes

Shorted cabinet temperature sensor, Stuck compressor relay on main control board, Incorrect temperature calibration, Control board firmware fault

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before accessing sensors or the control board.

  • Verify settings: Increase the set temperature and monitor for several hours to see if the interior warms.
  • Check sensor placement: Ensure the cabinet temperature sensor is not touching the evaporator coil directly, which can cause false low readings.
  • Test sensor: Measure resistance of the sensor at known temperatures. Replace if readings are out of specification.
  • Inspect control board: If the compressor runs continuously regardless of temperature, the main control board relay may be stuck and should be replaced.
  • Board replacement: Install a new OEM Kismile main control board if sensor replacement does not correct overcooling.
