About the 2175WC
The U-Line 2175WC, an Echelon 2000 Wine Captain, stores up to 48 bottles in a cabinet 23-1/4 inches wide. Convection cooling serves one zone, with a range of 38 to 60 degrees F. The stainless door (U-2175WCS-00) or overlay door (U-2175WCOL-00) can be reversed in the field.
On a 2175WC we start by reading the cellar temperature and comparing it with the set point; if it climbs, the evaporator fan is the first thing we listen to. A thermistor that reads wrong makes the compressor cycle badly, so we verify it with a thermometer. We clear dust from the condenser path and confirm that the light and display respond.
What we check on a 2175WC visit
- Cellar temperature against the set point, with the evaporator fan listened to
- Thermistor reading checked against a thermometer
- Gasket seal, condenser airflow, interior light and display

The cellar in my 2175WC runs above the set point. Why?
A slowing evaporator fan is one cause, and a dusty condenser is another. We test the fan, clean the airflow path and verify the thermistor before deciding on a part.
Moisture shows inside the cabinet. What does that mean?
It usually means the gasket has stopped sealing along some stretch. We inspect it all the way around and replace it when it cannot close tightly.
