Possible Causes
Weak or failing evaporator fan motor, Blocked air vents by bottles or shelves, Ice buildup around fan, Incorrect shelf arrangement restricting airflow
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Disconnect power before removing interior panels.
Steps to improve temperature stability:
- Rearrange bottles: Avoid packing bottles tightly against the rear wall or over the air outlets. Leave gaps for air to circulate.
- Check vents: Locate air inlet and outlet grills and ensure they are not blocked by labels, foil, or shelves.
- Inspect fan: Remove the rear interior panel and check the evaporator fan for ice buildup or obstructions. Defrost any ice naturally.
- Test fan operation: With power restored, confirm that the fan runs when the compressor is on. If it does not, replace the evaporator fan motor.
