2nd time this POS has gone down. Just got home from work and noticed a puddle on the floor and sure enough it's at 47 degrees and no compressor. Last time I paid TOO MUCH to have a tech come out to replace a control board. This time I took the back off, compressor room temp, control board has a green LED that is flashing 3 times. Anyone know what that means? Hope someone can help because 2 weeks ago my garage fridge went down and the wife JUST went shopping last night. I"m already getting an earfull on how I have not replaced/fixed the garage fridge yet and now this. :mad:

I have it unplugged and gonna plug it back in in a half hour. Oh and the lights are on and I hear a fan but it's not the fan down by the compressor.


Thanks for any input guys!

Anyone...I just need to know if 3 green flashes on the control board tells me if the board is bad or good???? If it's a bad control board I can replace it but this would be the 2nd one to fail in less than 8 years. How frustrating to say the least.

Not much help here but I am posting so the next guy with this fridge is not in the dark. it WAS the control module. It was bad AGAIN. so if yours craps out just replace the module. And as a side note, the one that was in there was only a year old and it looked like it had taken a beating from heat. I cut the back panel of the fridge to help it vent a bit more when the fan is running. Heat is ALWAYS a big killer with electronics. I have a feeling the way this is designed it is blowing all the hot air from the compressor right towards this module. I think venting it more will help this hot air escape and might help this board to live longer. OR it's just a CRAP BOARD BUILD IN CHINA like everything else...

I know have a spare as I bought 2 so if it happens again I have one. After that one this thing goes to the curb!
