I opened my Danby 2 temp zone wine cooler Saturday night to find 2 bottles of white wine frozen with the corks popped out. The lower zone temp was on 32. I have read the manual on how to raise the temperature, but it has not changed from 32. I removed the other bottles of wine to prevent freezing. How do I raise the temp? Bill Young

Is it because your keypad not functioning, meaning does the number change when you press the arrow up or down? Or when you set it, (let's say 12 Cel.) it does not reach down to that temperature. Then it could be either it's a sealed system problem( leaking refrigerant or under charge if it's a new unit). Or it could be a control problem( electronic control or sensor)

SOURCE: wine cooler noise

The problem is likely with one of the two fans. A new fan is available from Danby (1-800-263-2629). My noisy fan is the condensor fan located at the bottom rear of the device. After removing the cooler from under the cabinet, the source of the noise was obvious. You will need to tell them whether it is the upper fan or lower fan. Leave the cooler upright for a few hours before you plug it in so that you do not damage the condenser. Price for the fan from Danby is $20.15 including shipping.

The compressor needs to be tested to see if it's operational. This normally needs to be done by a service tec.

my danby dwc172bl wont get cool what to do

SOURCE: we have a danby dwc283bls wine cooler that no

that's always a possibility but not always the case. The thermostat may not be cycling correctly or set wrong. The condenser could be dirty or if there is a fan, it may not be running. Freeze ups can also cause an "Out of temp." condition. Check it out.
