Fault Diagnosis
Hisense Fridge Running Continuously
A fridge that never stops usually has a defrost fault, a leaking door seal or a thermostat reading too warm — we find why the compressor never rests.
Common causes
- Defrost failure icing the coil
- Door seal leaking warm air
- Thermostat out of calibration
- Condenser blocked
- Low refrigerant charge
Quick checks you can do
- Test the door seal
- Check the condenser coils
- Note the set temperature
- Look for ice build-up
When to call a technician
- Running for over 24 hours
- Frost visible
- High power bill
- Still not at temperature
