Ice Inside Wine Cooler, Compressor Runs Constantly
lothian.mcadam posted a topic in DIY Appliance Repair Help
GE Wine Chiller model: ZDW24ARBB(ABB) Our GE wine chiller never turns off. The evaporator coil plate inside the chiller is covered in a thick layer of ice. When I turn the thermostat to "off" the unit does not power down--presently, it sits unplugged. The problem with this chiller seems fairly specific, but I find very little t'shooting information here or other appliance repair forums. I suspect the thermostat is faulty; however, the cost for this part exceeds $250, which is untenable. My first question is, how do I determine the EXACT cause of the problem I described. My second question is, presuming the thermostat is faulty, rather than replacing this component, can it be repaired; and, if so, how does one go about the process? My third question is, presuming the thermostat is faulty and cannot be repaired, is it reasonable to install the thermostat spec'd for a similar model wine chiller?
