Wine cooler cycles on and off very frequently (short cycling)

Safety: Unplug the unit before accessing rear components or sensors.

• Step 1 – Clean condenser and ensure airflow: Make sure the condenser coil is clean and the unit has proper ventilation to prevent overheating.
• Step 2 – Check start relay and capacitor: Inspect and replace weak start components that may cause the compressor to shut off prematurely.
• Step 3 – Replace thermistor: If the temperature reading jumps quickly or is inaccurate, replace the cabinet thermistor.
• Step 4 – Control board: Persistent short cycling after these checks may indicate a control board issue requiring professional replacement.
