About Refrigerator error codes
Some codes come from ice. When frost builds up around a fan, the fan can’t spin and the control shows a fan code. Keep the doors closed properly, don’t block the vents inside the compartments, and give the fridge time to recover after a long door opening.
A reset by unplugging the fridge for a minute can clear a code that appeared once, but it won’t fix a failed fan motor or sensor. If the code returns, or the fridge stops cooling, move perishable food to a cooler and call for service. Unplug the fridge before you touch anything behind a panel.
