How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No electrical work is required for basic checks. Unplug the unit if removing internal panels.
Steps:
- Reposition bottles: Ensure bottles are not touching the cabinet walls or each other tightly. Add soft spacers if necessary.
- Secure shelves: Confirm that all shelves or racks are fully seated in their supports and not warped.
- Check internal panels: Gently press on the rear and side panels inside the cabinet while the unit is running to see if the noise changes. Tighten any loose screws.
- Inspect fan area: Remove the internal rear panel and check that the fan blades are not contacting wires or plastic. Re-route wires and secure with clips.
Tip: Run the cooler briefly with shelves removed to isolate whether the noise is from the racks or internal components.
