Based on the typical troubleshooting of not cooling units, we recommend checking your Twin Star wine cooler for the fan failure. The fan should be receiving approximately 12 volts. If the power supply to the fan is 12 volts but the fan is not operating, the fan will need to be replaced as it is likely a failed fan motor. If the fan is not receiving 12 volts, it is most likely an issue with a failing circuit board. The circuit board will need to be replaced. When you have proved the fan and lights are on and the breakdown is somewhere else, move on to the evaporator. If the evaporator doesn’t work, the unit will not be able to produce cold air even if the compressor runs at full capacity. Since the evaporator also uses a fan, the reason for its malfunction can be a blockage. Sometime, the blades of the fan could bend due to the accumulation of dust and debris, and that’s another reason why the wine fridge may not be cooling. Check out the evaporator and see if there is ice built on it. Also, check if the blades of the evaporator’s fan are in good condition. Dust and debris could have also built up on the component. Troubleshooting is easy. If there is ice, let it melt down before plugging in the appliance. Clean any dust and debris and make sure nothing obstructs the correct functioning of the evaporator. Also, make sure the bent fan is replaced with a new one promptly. In case two above solutions remain useless, look at the main board. It looks like this part of your Twin Star wine cooler is defective and needs a replacement. We strongly recommend delegating this repair to a Pro not to break down the appliance.
