How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power before accessing the lower compartment panels.

Steps:

  • Inspect wiring: Look for pinched wires under shelves or at panel edges. Repair any damage.
  • Measure resistance: Test the sensor with a multimeter. Replace the lower zone temperature sensor if readings are open, shorted, or out of specification.
