  Your GEAppliances Wine Cooler might not be operating due to several reasons. It could be in defrost cycle, which is normal and the compressor does not operate for about 16 minutes during this cycle. Also, check if the appliance is properly plugged into the outlet. Push the plug completely into the outlet. Furthermore, inspect the circuit breaker or fuse, replacing it if necessary, or reset the breaker. Lastly, verify if the GFI outlet has tripped and reset it if needed.
