Expert Review
If your back bar cooler's display has gone dark, is showing odd temperatures, or the buttons have stopped responding, this is almost certainly the culprit. This complete controller is a straight swap for the original. It’s a relatively quick job for a competent person, getting your cooler back to perfect working order without a massive headache.
Installation & Maintenance
- Disconnect mains power before attempting installation.
- Photograph wiring connections before disconnecting the old part.
- Gently unclip the old unit from its housing.
- Ensure the new controller is kept clean and dry.
