How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the cooler before removing the control panel.
Steps to fix F1 keypad fault:
- 1. Clean the panel surface: Wipe the control panel with a dry cloth. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the panel.
- 2. Dry out moisture: If condensation or spills occurred, unplug the unit and allow the control area to dry for several hours. You can gently blow cool air (not hot) to speed drying.
- 3. Inspect keypad cable: Remove the control bezel and check the keypad ribbon cable for kinks, corrosion, or partial disconnection. Reseat it firmly.
- 4. Test button response: After reassembly and powering on, test each button. If F1 persists or some buttons do not respond, the keypad membrane or UI board is likely defective.
- 5. Replace keypad/UI assembly: Install a new Vinotemp keypad or user interface board as a complete assembly if available.
Tip: Avoid pressing the panel with excessive force; this can damage the touch sensors over time.
