Troubleshooting path · Refrigeration
Machine is not cooling
Confirm airflow and controls before condemning the sealed system, and stop at the compressor — sealed-system repair is specialist work.
Other common issues
Not the right symptom?
Verify thermostat and settings
Confirm the setpoint and defrost schedule match the product load, then give the cabinet 30-60 minutes to stabilize after any change.
Inspect the evaporator and gaskets
Check for a frosted evaporator, torn door gaskets, and a blocked evaporator fan so the cabinet can hold temperature between cycles.
Stop at the compressor
Listen for compressor start attempts and record the behavior, then leave electrical and sealed-system repair to a qualified refrigeration technician.
