Frigidaire Refrigerator Error Codes – Fault Codes

If your Frigidaire refrigerator is displaying an error code, we can help. New style Frigidaire refrigerators have built in diagnostic systems. If your refrigerator finds, sees, or detects a fault or error in the system, it will show an error or fault code. The error code will display where the usual numbers are on the display screen. When an error code is displayed, your Frigidaire refrigerator is telling you a specific fault. If the error or fault is not fixable by you, it will require a repair technician.

Frigidaire Refrigerator Error CodesFrigidaire Refrigerator Error Codes

There are many different model numbers of Frigidaire refrigerators (side-by-side and french doors) with digital displays so when you see an error code write down what is flashing or displaying. Don’t pull the power from the fridge if it shows an error code. If you pull the power plug it will erase the fault code.

error code sb 5bError code sb 5b = Sabbath Mode

The display shows “Sb” or “5b” while in Sabbath mode.
SB Sabbath Mode
The Sabbath Mode is a feature that disables portions of the fridge and its controls in accordance with observance of the Sabbath and religious holidays within the Orthodox Jewish community. Sabbath Mode is turned ON and OFF by pressing and holding “∨” on freezer temp and “∧” on refrigerator temp for five seconds.

In the Sabbath Mode, the High Temp alarm is active for health reasons. If a high temperature alarm is activated during this time, due to a door left ajar, the alarm will sound for about 10 minutes. The alarm will then silence on its own and a red high temperature icon will display. The high temp icon will continue to display, even if the door is closed, until the Sabbath mode is exited and the icon reset. The refrigerator will function normally once the door is closed, without any violation of the Sabbath/Holidays.

When troubleshooting error codes, unplug the refrigerator and use caution.

    THE CODE H 1 MEANS THAT THERE IS WATER WHERE THE ICE PASSES THROUGH.TO THE CUP OR GLASS. GET RID OF THE WATER. AGAIN ON THE FREEZER SIDE. AFTERWARDS, YOU HAVE TO IMMEDIATELY UNPLUG THE REFRIGERATOR. WAIT 5 MINUTES. THEN PLUG IN THE REFIRGERATOR.
    NOW YOU WILL RESET THE UNIT AS FOLLOWS:
    OPEN THE RIGHT SIDE AND RESET THE TEMPERATURE TO THE HIGHEST SETTING 9 ON THE UPPER RIGHT HAND SIDE CONTROL PANEL.

    LASTLY, IN 30 SECONDS TO 60 SECONDS YOU WILL HEAR THE MOTOR OPERATING ON THE FREEZER SIDE.

  29. Tabitha L Allen

    I have a Frigidaire side by side refrigerator that is flashing H1 and keeps beeping every 5 or 10 minutes, the freezer is also forming Frost on the inside. I try to reset the temperature and after 5 minutes it goes back to H1 and beeps again. I have also heard a clicking sound when sometimes. What part would I need to fix this? It’s about 4- 5 years old. Model # JSI-26.

  30. Hello I hope you can help mines doesn’t give me any code only numbers & my filter says good just on red where it say hi temperature we have tried to fix it but it jumps back to the same numbers and it isn’t cooling the top anymore.

  31. My freezer is not functioning and shows only the right side and crossbar of an upper case H (no vertical line on the left side). Model glfh21f8hbd.

  32. D1 5P
    My refrigerator started making an alarm and gave the codes D1 5P when getting ice. I removed the ice bucket and got the same result.

  33. I have a 5 yr old fridge. Getting 5y CF code. It shut the fridge and freezer down, is that right? I read it’s a communications issue and that it’s the white wire in the 3 wire harness. No way to bypass this? I don’t need communication!

  34. The day the refrigerator was delivered SY EF code appeared. I didn’t google it and there was no mention of the code in manual. The freezer worked fine, but the refrigerator only cooled to about 60 degrees. Tech came out and said that the fan motor and main board had to be replaced. This was done, but SY EF came back on. Finally their senior tech came out and talked with a Frigidaire tech over the phone and diagnosed that there was a short in the electric wiring harness that could not be repaired locally. The process took a month but we now have a new operating refrigerator. Very frustrating.

  35. My Frigidaire fridge shows error code OF and OF. The fridge is at a cottage and everything was shut down for the winter. No power or heat. When power was switched on fridge did a single beep and that was all. No lights on in the fridge either. Control panel does not react to any attempts to activate any of display functions of the panel. Fridge is just short of 2 years old. Took the display panel out of the door and brought it to a appliance repair shop. They said panel showed fault codes DF and OP. PLEASE HELP!

  36. I have a Frigidaire Fridge model # FGHG2366PF. The control panel on the door displays ‘OF’ and ‘OF’ where the temps of the freezer and fridge should be displayed. None of the functions on the control panel work. No lights inside the fridge come on. The fridge is at a cottage and all power was shut off from December to March. The fridge is about 1 1/2 years old. I pulled the control panel from the door and brought it to an appliance repair location. They said it showed faults ‘DF’ and ‘OP’. Can this panel be reset? Any suggestions for repair?

  37. I have the same issue. I pulled the control panel display and took it to an appliance store. They said it showed ERROR CODE ‘DF’ and ‘OP’. Were you able to determine what caused your problem? Also what was the cause? Thanks Joey.

  38. I have a Frigidaire side by side. The controls are on the refrigerator site. It is displaying H1 on the refrigerator side and beeps 5 times every minute or so

  39. I get an H1, not HI, that flashes. Not sure what that could mean. I get it on the refrigerator side.

  40. My frigidaire model FGHF2366PF5A is doing the same thing. Push on cubed ice and get an error message 1C – and ice cubes will not come out.

  41. I have a “SY EF” error code on my Frigidaire Side by Side refrigerator.
    This is the 2nd time in a few months, and although we have fixed the problem for now, the unit behind the panel keeps icing over.
    The fridge is about 8 yrs old, and I am trying to figure out if it is worth fixing, or should I just buy a new one.

  42. I have a Frigidare Gallery. The control panel displays a fault code of 5Y EF. What can I do to correct this. Thx.

  43. 59-EF
    We took the ice maker out and the panel. There was also ice the motor was hitting. We are also thinking the refrigerator needs from or the new chemical like freon.

  44. Carol I have the same error code. Did you ever find out what it was? These Frigidaire appliances are junk had more problems with Fridge, Washer and the Microwave. they are only 5 years old. if you could let me know what this error code is….Thanks

  45. My code is OFF OFF.
    Panel is not accepting touch commands.

  51. I have a Frigidaire side by side model #JSI-26. The alarm thet goes off when you leave the door open keeps going off even though the door is closed. Then, when you open the door, the freezer side temperature have is flashing “H”. The freezer side is perfectly frozen and working fine. The fridge side however is cool but not cold. I’ve reset the alarm, the temperature setting, and even unplugged the entire unit for a few minutes but it keeps doing this. What could be wrong?

    Did you recently have a power outage?
    Can you recheck the error code?
    We do not see anything in the database for Frigidaire refrigerator error code 7 and beeping.

  54. I have a Frigidaire refrigerator FGRU19F6QFA.
    It was beeping and displaying a code 7.
    What does that mean?

  55. I have a Frigidaire model FFHS2611LBB it is doing the same thing as above (shows H1 in the temperature window). We have unplugged it and raised the temperature. That works for a short time and then it happens again. Sometimes it happens several times a day, other times it will go 2 or 3 days and not happen at all.

  56. We got EF error code on our electrolux fridge and replace both control board AND the evaporator fan and still getting the error code. Any suggestions? First symptom was it stopped cooling. No code at that time. Unplugged for a few days and plugged back in, to our surprise, it worked for about 4 days and then would not cool and got EF code at that time.

    RUSSELL LOGSDON,
    Frigidaire refrigerator Error code H1 means the refrigerator thinks that the freezer and refrigerator temperatures are too warm.
    Unplug the refrigerator for 5 minutes.
    Plug it back in and it should clear the H1 error code.
    If not, increase the temp of both the freezer and fridge section and the H1 code will clear.

  60. DIY Project Help Tips

    Nathan,
    FYI: Its error code SY EF and not 5Y EF.
    Error Code SY EF is the Evaporator Fan Fault.
    This usually means there is NOT enough airflow over the sensor, this can mean a faulty sensor, or evaporator fan motor.

    Access the evaporator assembly cover in the rear of the freezer section. In convertible units that can function either as refrigerators or freezers, and is located toward the bottom of the unit on the inner back wall if necessary, remove the two lower glass shelves and the crisper compartments.

    The Frigidaire Gallery with error code SY EF guide is here.
    It is for a side by side but will show you where the fan and circuit board are located.
    -RR

  61. It was very difficult to find this so simple explanation but for these new refrigerators.
    When you browse the internet you’ll always find that you should “press both arrows at the same time” (which is not my case).
    Of course, it solved my problem and saved me money (I should have requested a technician to solve it and, probably, “some parts” (i.e. main board) would have been “needed to be replaced!”).
    Thank you very much for disclosing this type of information.

  62. I have a Frigidaire Gallery with bottom freezer, model LGUB2642LF3 showing an error code 5Y EF.
    Where do I find the evaporator fan and circuit so that I can check and or replace?

  63. The cubed ice dispenser is not dispensing cubed ice. Not shows the letters IC. Crushed ice is ok and the water silencing is also ok

    The freezer has no problem but the refrigerator is not cooling, it has error E8. What is the problem and what should I do?

  66. Is it safe to leave the refrigerator plugged in if you have the error code SY CE displayed? I dont want it to cause a fire to start and we dont knkw much about refrigerators. If we order thr control board, where is it on the fridge to replace it?

    Amy Davis,
    You may have a faulty control panel board on your Frigidaire refrigerator.
    You can check the wiring to it to make sure it is secure.

    If only the WATER illuminates on the Frigidaire refrigerator display panel, it means the display board is getting power but may have other issues.
    Troubleshoot the issue further and you may find that you need a new display panel board.

    The only thing that illuminates and works on the display panel is water, everything else is blank.
    Ice maker is making ice.
    Fridge is cold, but I need to lower temp but unable to on the display.

  72. Personal experience on this one. I pulled out main board and saw a couple bulged capacitors the bronze like color. Bought 3 new capacitors less then $1.50, took board to tv REPAIR shop who soldered capacitors to board. Total cost parts @ labor $51.50.

  73. I have the Frigidaire Gallery model FGHB2866PF9A. When I push the “cube” button, it no longer shows an indicator light, but does dispense ice. If I press the button again, it shows a code ” IC – “. The water dispenser and crushed ice indicators and functions work normally. It is only the cube that will not indicate that it is in that mode. What is the possible fix?

    Gary krech,
    If you have found moisture and corrosion on the Display board on your Frigidaire Refrigerator, that means the water line above it is loose and dripping water down onto the control board and the wiring.
    First, find the cause of the leak and fix it.
    After the leak is fixed, clean the area to remove all moisture and any rust or corrosion.
    Then, replace the board that the water dripped on and your Frigidaire refrigerator should be as good as new.
    You may need new wiring harnesses if the water damaged them also.
    Let us know what you find or if you need help fixing the leak or finding the correct part number.

    Joe,
    If the Fridgidaire refrigerator is Flashing 4 and you have replaced the Damper and the refrigerator is still flashing 4:
    First, BE SURE THE DAMPER IS BEING SUPPLIED POWER.
    Check with a meter to make sure it is getting the correct voltage/power.
    Check the wiring harnesses from the board to the damper.
    Be sure they are not loose or damaged.

    If the Damper gets power, works properly, and all wiring is secure and undamaged, the service manual says to:
    Ensure that unit is well sealed to prevent excessive infiltration of moisture.
    Review unit leveling, door alignment and door gasket seal.
    Look for evidence of poor seal between the door and the cabinet.
    If unit is cooling, there will be excessive moisture present within the unit and around the perimeter of the gasket.
    If unit is not cooling, place a flashlight inside the unit to detect areas where the door gasket is not sealing well.
    If necessary, level the cabinet, align door, adjust or replace gasket to ensure good seal.

    5y EF code on Frigidaire refrigerator = The tech manual says to replace the evap fan or freezer fan first.
    The evap fan is the most likely issue when you have the error 5y EF.
    Sometimes it is just the wiring harness that is damaged or is not secure, so check the wiring harnesses from the evap fan to the control board.
    If replacing the evap fan does not clear the error code 5y EF, then the tech sheet says to replace the control board if a new evap fan did not clear the error.

    Frigidaire Refrigerator Error Code OF OF = The freezer off setting has been turned ON.
    Here is what is in the Frigidaire Refrigerator manual…

    To turn the freezer off, set the control to 10° and push the up arrow. “OF” will appear in the display. With the control set to off, the freezer light will still operate, but neither the compressor or the defrost cycle will. There is a 13 minute compressor off time delay built into the control.

    To turn the control on push the down arrow. 10° will appear in the display. If the freezer is to be operated at a temperature below 10°, push the down arrow until the desired temperature is indicated on the control. The control is designed to fail safe. If the control fails the compressor runs continuously with a 30 minute defrost cycle every 12 hours.

    Your Frigidaire Professional refrigerator is in SABBATH MODE if SB or 5B appears on the display.

    Sabbath Mode
    The Sabbath Mode is a feature that disables portions of the refrigerator and its controls in accordance with observance of the weekly Sabbath and religious holidays within the Orthodox Jewish community.

    Sabbath Mode is turned ON and OFF by pressing and holding “∨” on freezer temp and “∧” on refrigerator temp for five seconds. The display shows “Sb” while in Sabbath mode.
    (PRESS BOTH BUTTONS AT SAME TIME NOT SEPARATELY)

    In the Sabbath Mode, the High Temp alarm is active for health reasons. If a high temperature alarm is activated during this time, for example due to a door left ajar, the alarm will sound intermittently for about 10 minutes. The alarm will then silence on its own and a red high temperature icon will display. The high temp icon will continue to display, even if the door is closed, until the Sabbath mode is exited and the icon reset. The refrigerator will function normally once the door is closed, without any violation of the Sabbath/Holidays.

    Donna,
    The 5b code on the display of your Frigidaire refrigerator means SABBATH MODE.
    You need to press and HOLD the arrows to remove it, if the arrows are not lit up, press them anyway to try and get the fridge out of sabbath.
    Hold down both arrows for ten seconds to get OUT OF SABBATH MODE.
    If that does not work, unplug the fridge for 10 minutes, plug back in, and try once again.

  95. Our Frigidaire Refrigerator says 5b error code on the display panel. There is no ^ or down sign to press. All lights are out inside and outside. How do I get to up and down scroll?

  96. I have the same ICE ER message, model number FPHB2899LF1 Frigidaire Professional
    ice maker kit model JBND-28
    Did anyone find a fix?

  97. WHY would ANY refrigerator company put the control board UNDER the refrigerator?? We bought a brand new frigidaire refrigerator and then later a tree fell on the power line, leaving the refrigerator without electricity for around 14 hours. Condensation went downwards, impacting the control board. This would NOT have happened if the control board were on top of it or accessible through a panel on the back or the sides. How can it be that after so many years of making these products the refrigerators are not far more intelligently engineered?

    Leigh Lavender,
    If your Frigidaire FGHC2331PF7 fridge freezer is at the correct temp, but the display shows otherwise, check all wiring harnesses and electronic board connections. You may have a loose or faulty wiring harness or electronic board connection. It sounds like a simple communications error. Hopefully it is that and not a faulty board.

  102. I have a model Frigidaire FGHC2331PF7. Just replaced defrost thermostat, now display shows correct temp on frig, but freezer temp constantly shows 33 and 34 degrees, back and forth. The freezer actual temp (with stand in refrigerator thermometer) is below zero. It’s been like this for over 24 hours now.

  103. Side by side Frigidaire. Had been getting the flashing 4 error code. Had a repairman replace the damper. Still getting the flashing 4. Had the same repairman replace the main computer component. Still getting the flashing 4 error message. Unplug the fridge and it will keep temp for about 6 hours, then it stops again. The flashing 4 never goes away. Am I missing a reset procedure for everything to start working again. Is the problem with the fridge or the repairman?

    I have the Error Code ‘OF” on my Frigidaire side by side JSI-26. What is this error and how do I fix it?

  111. Thanks for responding. The reason I replaced the power board was because the frig was turning on and off 40 + times a day and everything indicated that the power board was failing. As soon as I put the new board in and I powered up the unit the display went to 2 and then EF. I opened up the freezer and checked the voltage at the evaporator fan and it read 0. I did cal the business that I bought the board from and they said the new board seemed to be faulty and they are sending me a new one. The frig would not cool with the new board. I hope the new board does the trick. The model # is EI26SS55GS0.

    If your Frigidaire refrigerator displays the ICE ER, this is telling you there is an error within the ice maker system.
    We would suggest first unplugging the refrigerator for 5 minutes to see if that MAY clear the error.
    If not then troubleshooting will have to be done as the ICE ER code only tells you there is an issue within the ice maker system, may be an electrical connection issue, mechanical fault, etc.

  144. I have a Frigidaire Model # FFSC2323LE9 side by side counter depth refrigerator/freezer that is approximately 2 years old. Yesterday I received the error code SY EF and lost both sides of the unit as they both were not working while this error code was present. We took all of the food out and put them in other freezers/refrigerators, however, by the time we did that (approximately 1 hour) the temperature in the refrigerator part read 58 degrees. I pulled out the refrigerator upon your suggestion to recycle the board with a “power cycle” ,so to speak, and the refrigerator’s error codes disappeared upon power up and now both sides appear to be functioning perfectly 24 hours later. My question is: Will this continue or should I have a tech come out anyway to ensure it is not something more serious? I would hate to move everything back into my refrigerator/freezer only to have the same error code pop up next week. Is what I did a permanent fix in your opinion or is it simply a temporary fix of a problem that will be reoccurring? Any help and advice would be appreciated greatly!!!

  179. I got the error code to go away. I unplugged the fridge and waited a few seconds, then plugged it back in. Everything is working fine now. As a side note to the evaporator fan, when you open the freezer door, the fan shuts off so you have to push the little button that turns off the lights and lets the fan come back on.

    Also, I still believe the old fan was bad, I tried putting 12vdc to the wires and it did not spin. So unless there needs to be another signal from the control board to the other 2 wires to tell the fan to turn on, this is a bad fan.

    Tony,
    If you replaced the fan after getting the 5Y EF error code on your Frigidaire refrigerator, the official repair guide says to replace the control board. If your refrigerator is running fine despite the error code, try unplugging the wire harness that goes to the display panel to see if that may reset the display board. Unplug the fridge before you do this. If you continue to have the issue, you can replace the control board as a last resort.

    The official repair guide says this: Check the wiring between the evaporator fan and control board. Check for 12 VDC to fan between the red and brown wires. Check for variant voltage (depending on high or low speed) between yellow and brown. If correct then replace the evaporator fan. If error code still exist, replace control board.

There is an round opening on the left inside wall on the refrigerator side (if I am looking at the fridge with the door open) that blows cold air to the refrigerator near/above the vegetable drawers. There is also cold air blowing form the freezer to the fridge from the top left wall of the refrigerator (although I believe it is blowing less cold air than normal. The digital display reads “0” for the freezer and “OP” or sometimes -39*F, but mostly stays on “OP”. The fridge has been like this for a few days now; thermistor was changed yesterday with no avail. Please let me know if you need additional information. Thanks in advance for any input!

  185. Frigidaire Mdl DGUS2645LF3 control panel reads 5b but there is no v’s showing on display. Display is blank except for the 5b. See photo in diagnostic
    The display shows “Sb” or “5b” while in Sabbath mode.
    SB Sabbath Mode
    The Sabbath Mode is a feature that disables portions of the fridge and its controls in accordance with observance of the Sabbath and religious holidays within the Orthodox Jewish community. Sabbath Mode is turned ON and OFF by pressing and holding “∨” on freezer temp and “∧” on refrigerator temp for five seconds.

    Is your Frigidaire refrigerator and freezer working properly or is the freezer OFF but the fridge section is ON?
    To turn the control on push the down arrow. 10° will appear in the display. If the freezer is to be operated at a temperature below 10°, push the down arrow until the desired temperature is indicated on the control.

    Check the wiring between the evaporator fan and the control board. Check for 12 VDC to the fan between the red and brown wires. Check for variant voltage between yellow and brown wires. If VDC is correct then replace evaporator fan.

    Dwayne Edwards,
    Here is what we found for the OF error code….
    The freezer off setting has been turned ON…. Here is what is in the manual…

    To turn the freezer off, set the control to 10° and push the up arrow. “OF” will appear in the display. With the control set to off, the freezer light will still operate, but neither the compressor or the defrost cycle will. There is a 13 minute compressor off time delay built into the control.
    To turn the control on push the down arrow. 10° will appear in the display. If the freezer is to be operated at a temperature below 10°, push the down arrow until the desired temperature is indicated on the control. The control is designed to fail safe. If the control fails the compressor runs continuously with a 30 minute defrost cycle every 12 hours.

    Yes the evaporator fan is most likely but…
    Frigidaire error code SY EF means an Evaporator fan circuit failure
    Check the wiring between the evaporator fan and the control board. Check for 12 VDC to the fan between the red and brown wires. Check for variant voltage between yellow and brown wires. If VDC is correct then replace evaporator fan. If the error code still comes back then replace the control board.

    John,
    If the fridge is working, then right now you do not need to replace the damper. If the problem comes back then consider replacing it.
    -RR

  194. I had a flashing 4 code on my Frigidaire refrigerator. The freezer then didn’t work. I unplugged the power and then plugged back and now all is working and no flashing code. Does the damper still have to be replaced?

  195. Frigidaire model FGHN2844LF4 and last night it went into error code 5y ef so i unplugged it and waited 24 hrs before plugging. When plugged it back in the Condenser Fan is turning and the compressor engages but the copper lines off the compressor are not getting cold. They started to and then stopped. Also the reading for both the Refrigerator part says HI and also for the Freezer says HI. It seems to me that my compressor may be going out or the mother board not sending the correct signals. Any suggestion on how to verify what the true issue is. I was prepared to replace the Fan but i don’t believe its a fan issue because it turns on first then the compressor.

  196. Sy ef code. How would I know if it’s just the fan or control board that isn’t working without the proper tools? Could I start with replacing the fan?

  197. both displays actually say ‘OF’ then there is a small ‘F’ afterwards…. so it looks like ‘OFf’

  198. Bought a new control board for my Frigidaire refrigerator, clicked into place and then plugged in. It has the same code, SY CF.
    Model number for Fridge is 242108500 (January 2010)

  199. My frigidaire gallery side by side with ice maker model GLHS66EEQ7 is showing 0 for freezer and F for fridge where the adjustments are numbers are located. Can not get them to move up or down . Any ideas what has happened or how to fix it?

  200. Both freezer and refrigerator says ‘off’. When I unplug and plug, there is a single beep for about 1 second. Model FGUB2642LF8

    Shelly Donald,
    IC error means ICE MAKER ERROR on Frigidaire. Turn the ice maker OFF and back ON. If that does not reset, then unplug fridge for 10 minutes. If that does not work… Remove the ice maker, check for problems, and reinstall. Many times it is just an error or loose connection that needs to be reset.

    Brandy,
    Is the IC error code on your Frigidaire on the freezer side of the display? This would mean you have an issue with the ice maker. Can you try resetting it by either turning off the ice maker, or unplugging the fridge for 10 minutes. Can you give us the model number of your fridge?
    -RR

  203. Sometimes my new Frigidaire gallery refrigerator displays ERROR CODE IC and no cubes come out. I’ve had the unit about one month. I slide my finger and touch crushed then water then cubed and sometimes it works and cubed ice cubes out and IC code goes away. Can you help?

    Tess,
    Try unplugging the fridge for 5 or 10 minutes and see if that clears the error. It most likely will not clear the error code if the ice maker has a bad component. If the ice maker does not make a sound when you try and dispense ice, you may have an issue with the microswitch or motor, actuator. Have you tested the components in the ice maker and dispenser to be sure they are in working order? A part needs to be replaced before the error code will clear.
    -RR

  206. Yes it is IC. Yes have removed the ice maker and all looks well. When trying to dispense cubed ice – press the cubed button and code IC appears, no sound or noise of any kind. Press crushed ice button and crushed ice is dispensed no issue. The refrigerator is a French Door model with the ice maker on top, freezer on the bottom. Have not unplugged the refrigerator.

  207. DIY Project Help Tips

    Tess,
    Are you sure the error is IC? The only Frigidaire refrigerator error code we find in our database for IC is a power outage but that does not sound correct for your specific issue. Have you tried unplugging the refrigerator to reset? Have you made sure the wire harness is connected properly to the ice maker? If the ice maker makes crushed ice but not cubed ice, it may be possible there is an issue with the ice maker itself. Have you removed the ice maker and inspected it for damage and to be sure it is installed correctly? There could also be a board issue which is causing the dispenser to not operate properly. What exactly happens if you try to dispense cubed ice? Does the dispenser make a sound, clicking? Does the motor run? Is the IC error code always displayed or only when you try and dispense cubed ice?

  208. Frigidaire French door refrigerator with ice maker on top. It will not dispense cubed ice. Getting error code IC and can’t find what that means. It will dispense crushed ice.

    SY CF Error Code is a communication failure when the fridge is powered up = Check the wiring that goes from the interface to the control board. Check to be sure connections are not loose or damaged.

    I have a Kenmore French door bottom freezer. The SY CF is displaying in the front. Lights are out and it’s starting to warm up. I’m not sure if it has anything to do with a sensor I saw in the ice bin. Need to figure out how to fix it.

  216. My Frigidaire Refrigerator is showing an H for the freezer and F for the Refrigerator. The refrigerator side is not holding a cold temperature. I’ve tried several times resetting the temperature to a higher 9 level and it does not work. It stays at 1? What do these codes means? Is it something I can fix on my own?

  217. DIY Project Help Tips

    Demetrio Green,
    The thermistor checks the fridge temp and relays the temperature to the main computer control board. This board will regulate the power to the compressor & evap fan. If the thermistor is bad, then all this does not happen and the fridge will not cool. The compressor will not run or may run too often. Test the thermistor with a multimeter. If the thermistor has no continuity then it needs to be replaced.
    -RR

  218. I have a Kenmore fridge. I just replaced the main board for a defrost problem, but now its flashing EF for evaporator fan, except that the evaporator fan is running, could the thermistor in the refrigerator section be causing this error?

    Bill,
    Are you sure it is not error code OP or dF? OF is not in the Frigidaire database.
