Compressor control fault
High
Both compartments warm up progressively as the compressor is unable to run or maintain the refrigerant cycle needed for cooling.
View
CF
Condenser fan motor fault
High
The back or bottom of the refrigerator near the compressor is much hotter than normal because the condenser fan is not moving air across the condenser coils and compressor.
View
CI
Ice maker communication fault
Medium
The ice maker completely stops cycling and ejecting ice cubes, even though water supply and freezer temperature are adequate.
View
DE
Door open too long
Low
One or both doors are not fully closed, allowing warm room air to enter and warm the compartment contents.
View

Heavy frost or ice buildup is visible on the back wall of the freezer or around the evaporator cover panel.
View
FF
Frozen evaporator / defrost fail
High
Food in the fresh food section feels warm or reaches unsafe temperatures above 40°F despite the compressor running continuously.
View
