Unit not level, Loose internal panels or shelves, Condenser coils vibrating against frame, Loose fan shroud

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before tightening internal components.

  • 1. Level the cabinet: Use a level and adjust the front leveling legs until the cooler is stable and does not rock.
  • 2. Check shelves and racks: Ensure all shelves are fully seated and not rattling. Add felt pads or rubber bumpers if needed.
  • 3. Secure panels and coils: Tighten any loose screws on interior and rear panels. Use foam or rubber spacers to prevent condenser coils from touching the frame.
  • 4. Inspect fan shrouds: Tighten screws securing the evaporator and condenser fan housings.
