My chest freezer temp alarm contiunues to go off. I have pushed the temp button and it will stop beeping for a short time and then continues to go off. I have unplugged the unit and the temp light goes off and unit does not beep for maybe 6-8 hours and then the beeping starts up. My freezer is 3/4 full but not over full (everything is in its place-- baskets are in correctly), gaskets are in like new condition, there is no ice build up around door, or gaskets, the freezer is on a level garage cement floor at least 4-6 inches from any wall, there is nothing blocking the access panel, the freezer is maintaining temp as i have put a themometer inside, the thermostat control is set to the factory setting of 4, and I am going crazy with this "beeping" noise.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be wrong or how to fix it.
Thanks Pete

Hi,
So what is the temp reading on the thermometer that you put inside?

The only themometer i have is a pocket thermometer and it reads well below 0 as this is the lowest number on the thermometer . I am going to pick up a freezer thermometer Tuesday after work. How long should i leave it in their before I take a reading?
Thanks Pete

For whatever reason Freezer has been working fine, the only diffence has been the ambient temp has changed from the 20's to the mid to high 30's, time will tell in the next few weeks or so. I can't believe ambient temp would matter, but its not beeping so I'll give it more time.
