My Danby wine cooler is doing this...

Does anyone know if this is a easy fix, or is this wine cooler done? While the front panel is blinking, the back electric panel is blinking red and green...
Tried to upload a quick video but it wouldn't work

    From what I can see at Danby website, this must be a old model. My first suggr would be to contact the manufacturer and see what they have to say about fixing it, but if this is indeed a old wine cooler, it would probably be cheaper to purchase,a new wine cooler vs fixing the old one.

    If that was mine I do not think I would continue to use is. Sounds like an electrical problem and I do not think the uni should be blinking.

    I would write agree with the reader that said the circuit boards messed up if it's too expensive to fix it I would try upgrading to a different kind and maybe repurpose the cooler for something else

    ours is s different model and I also thought the cooler was shot but hubbie discovered some small batteries in it like hearing aid or watch batteries but bigger and switched them out and it's been fine since. A simple fix before you get rid of it.

      That or maybe the fuse is out and needs to be replaced. If it was the circuit board, you wouldn't have anything blinking I think. @The manufacturer's website might not have them, but you can check at http://www.repairclinic.com to see if you can find an answer and parts to fix it, if it can be fixed. They can also help you over the phone. You will need the model number, which is usually listed just inside of the door, on the back, or on the bottom.

    is this the table top model ? if yes, it has probably the fan on the heat exchanger, a computer size fan, cheap online and easy to exchange. do not use till fixed or tossed out.

    Always try to unplug wait a few minutes and plug back in. Sometimes this resets whatever happened like the electric flickering off.

    Not to scare you or anything because I know NOTHING about wine coolers, but I would never ever buy anything with the Danby name on it again! I bought a small upright of their's freezer a little over 2 years ago & it died twice ruining all my food :(
