Why your Carter-Hoffmann food warmer & holding cabinet is thermostat issue
Catching thermostat issue early on a Carter-Hoffmann food warmer & holding cabinet is usually straightforward: temperature inaccurate, cycling abnormally. Bad thermostat or temperature sensor. Nine times out of ten it comes down to stuck thermostat contacts.

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before booking a repair, confirm the temperature setting itself, and give the unit 24 hours after any adjustment before assuming it's broken. If it's still acting up after that, a sensor that's confirmed inaccurate has to be replaced and recalibrated against the control board — guessing which part is at fault wastes a parts order.
