Temperature - Is fan supposed to constantly run or is it controlled by thermostat

Top half of Danby DKC645BLS kegerator 10 degrees warmer than bottom half. Bottom half cooling to approx. 34 degrees.

    huuum,

    Interior fan cycles on and off (I'm guessing that indicates that the unit is cycling). I still can not get the temp in the upper half below 44 degrees. Could this be low on freon?



    Thanks again,

    huuum,

    I need to clarify that this is a kegerator with only one compartment. I am guessing that the bottom portion of the refer has aIways been as cold as it is now. I just got a refer thermometer a week ago because the led temp display fluctuated between 32 and 42 degrees and I was curious what the actual temp inside the kegerator was.



    thank you,

You said ,Top half of Danby DKC645BLS refrigerator 10 degrees warmer than bottom half. Bottom half cooling to approx. 34 degrees.

Is it running all the time without cycling off and on as it should be doing?
Sorry to have to tell you this news.
But this would mean a bad thermostat or insufficient freon in the cooling system.

The same issue with the fact that one compartment is warm and the other is cool!

Let me know that service tells you!

Thank You

    More than likely the system has two thermostats.
    One for each compartment.
    This enables you to have the white wine colder than the red wine in the next compartment.
    Because it is cycling off and on as it should be doing?There are to options.
    1.The warm side thermostat is bad.
    2.If it was low on freon the cool side would not be as cold as it is.
    Is the cold side as cold as it always was previously?

    Now I under stand!
    I thought you meant a two zone wine cooler as I sell here.
    If it's one compartment then you do need to check the freon pressure.
    I feel that the freon is correct way to go

I have a danby kegerator and the code LE keeps flashing

Sounds like a faulty temperature probe or faulty temperature control circuit. Some modify their unit with an external temperature controller. It does require knowledge of wiring to perform the modification. There are detailed notes, images, etc provided by psychodad at

Problem with digital thermostat

you have to decide if the fridge is faulty or the thermostat
if you think it is the thermostat thet bridge out the switching contacts that make the compressor run
question
is the compressor running constantly
is the cooling fan working
is the condenser blocked with dirt
if 1 of these are at fault then the fridge is not going to drop the temerature
