What this family is
The TA refrigerator family covers three listings, TA35 through TA55, and the table below is the whole of what the spine records about them. What dominates on this platform is cooling and temperature faults, with leaks and water on the floor behind it.
What goes wrong on these models
- Cooling and temperature faults — it cools on mains power but not from the vehicle socket — See: Alpicool TA Refrigerator: Not Cooling or Not Freezing.
- Leaks and water on the floor — a puddle collects inside the compartment under the contents — See: Alpicool TA Refrigerator: Water Leak.
- Ice-making faults — it freezes on mains power but not from the vehicle socket — See: Alpicool TA Refrigerator: Ice Maker Fault.
- Noise and vibration — a buzz or hum that changes when the unit is nudged — See: Alpicool TA Refrigerator: Abnormal Noise or Vibration.
Problem classes in frequency order
- 1. Cooling and temperature faults — On this platform it is the DC supply and its protection setting, more often than anything else. It leads on TA because the three listings differ in capacity rather than in how they are fed, so the supply is the one thing the whole roster has in common.
- 2. Leaks and water on the floor — On these models the class is led by condensation from warm, humid air.
- 3. Ice-making faults — Led here by what the box has actually been asked to do.
- 4. Noise and vibration — The usual answer in this class is how and where it is standing.

Before you open anything
Safety
Unplug the appliance or switch off its breaker before removing any panel; a capacitor can hold a charge after the power is off. Never cut into the sealed refrigerant circuit, and never chip ice off the plate with a blade, because the tubing behind it is thin-walled.
Owner work and technician work
The owner-fixable end of this list is leaks and water on the floor and noise and vibration, which start with seals, filters, clearances and settings and need no panel off. The line is crossed as soon as a check needs a meter on live terminals, the sealed system opened, or the cabinet emptied and moved, and it is the same line on every listing in the table.
