Possible Causes

Aged NTC sensor, Sensor not in correct location, Control board calibration error

Safety: Unplug before moving sensors.

Verify with thermometer: Place a reliable thermometer in the center of the cabinet and compare to the display.
Reposition sensor: Ensure the sensor is in its factory location, not touching the evaporator or door.
Replace sensor: If readings remain inaccurate, replace the NTC sensor with a Montpellier-compatible part.
Control calibration: Some models allow minor offset adjustment via service mode; otherwise, a miscalibrated board may need replacement.
