Common Symptom
CC
Compressor control fault

The freezer compartment warms to ambient room temperature as the compressor is unable to run and the refrigerant cycle has stopped entirely.
View
DF
Defrost cycle failure
Medium
Over days or weeks, the freezer struggles to maintain target temperatures as incremental ice buildup on the evaporator progressively restricts airflow.
View
FF
Frozen evaporator / defrost fail
High
Food in the freezer begins to soften; the display shows temperatures above 0°F even though the compressor continues to run.
View
PF
Power failure detected
Low
Depending on outage duration and how full the freezer was, some or all frozen contents may have warmed above safe freezing temperatures during the power interruption.

SY EF
Evaporator fan system fault
High
The compressor is active and the evaporator coil is cold, but without fan circulation the cold air does not distribute through the compartment and temperatures rise.
View
TF
High freezer temperature alarm
High
Ice cream softens, frozen items feel less solid, and the freezer interior temperature climbs above 0°F despite the compressor running.
