EWAVE wine cooler getting too cold
Even with the dial set to least cold, it gets to about 25F. I think it
is running 100%. Interior light out, but that is likely a separate issue. Thoughts? |

Thermostat stuck in the "on" position? Dirty or pitted contacts? I haven't even begun to look into it. I am just happy it is too cold, rather than not cold at all. Thanks for the suggestions. Might also be the relay. There really isn't much to this gizmo. |

If you let the compressor run and run to maintain that temp, aren't you shortening it's expected lifetime? -- I would like to apologize for not having offended you yet. Please be patient.

You said you thought it was running all the time, so, based on what you wrote, I thought you were actually 'running it all the time'; Most coolers remain plugged in, I didn't know you were testing it and unplugging it because it wasn't shutting the compressor down, as far as you could determine. You left those details out. I didn't know what you chilled in the damn thing, either. You didn't initially mention it. Sorry for the confusion on my part? It is unplugged now, of course. I'd hope so. You a big dope, or? Nope. Just going by what you wrote... was all. -- I would like to apologize for not having offended you yet. Please be patient. I will get to you shortly. |
