True TDD1 freezes the beer?

Yes it does sound like the thermostat is defective. Thanks John Tripp Appliance 911

Try turning thermostat knob all the way to left or counter clockwise. This should shut the compressor off. If the compressor continues to run the thermostat is stuck closed & bad. If the compressor remains off with thermostat turned all the way to the left try turning it slightly to the right (warmest setting). See if it stops freezing. If it continues to freeze set at warmest setting replace the thermostat. Try pricing a thermostat out at Refrigeration Hardware. Link attached. Refrigeration Hardware Supply

try to adjust on a warmest setting then observe unit if not replace your thermostat means the sensor is deffective iinstall new thermostat.

If I am not mistaken, the True line-up of coolers have a temp control on them that is labeled 0-9.

This particular type of temp control is a coil temp control. I measures the temperature of the coil rather than air temperature.

Always set the control to the warmest setting and move it colder by one number at a time until your product reaches and holds designed temp. Do not go by cooler air temperature as there will be a great swing in temp especially if the doors are used frequently. Always temp the product. In the case of beer, your ideal holding temp is between 35-38°.


If you set the temp control to the warmest setting and the cooler is still freezing product, you will need to have the cooler serviced be a refrigeration tech. It will most likely be a bad control but there may be underlying problems.

Then replace the thermostat. It's cheaper that wasting all that beer. Seriously I think your thermostat is broken and stuck on coldest setting. Sea Breeze

Your thermostat is the culprit and it need replacement. It would have got stuck in the coolest position. Please try to rote the thermostat knob clockwise and anti clock wise twice and then see still the problem is persisting.

In case there is still excess cooling and frost formation, It is wise to change the thermostat unit.

Old is not gold in the case of refrigerators! Remember this and go for the latest counterpart of an unit to save your energy and power bill too.

That seems a good idea.

call repairman sounds like low on freon or thermostat problem either way better to have pro do it hope this helps

your thermostat is bad,get the model number from inside and call your local appliance store and get a new one,let me know,thanks-mike

Could be the thermostat isn't working and the unit is just running and running all the time. To me that seems the most simple explanation right now. Can you check the temp inside when on the lowest setting for a day, then turn it up to the highest for a day and see if there is a huge difference in temps? Does the compressor motor ever turn off or does it run continuously? Suspect that t-stat...
