R-S8800EM….Show F0 13….now… What does that means? Pls advice….tq
Hello.
i bought the same new fridge hitachi r-s700 And not working, shows no life. What kind of failure was with you?
Thanks
How does one clear F0 13 error
My Hitachi refrigerator Model number S-R800GM is showing me the code “F013”.
My hitachi fridge leak water on the floor. One day I pull the fridge out and see the water pan tilted one side. I saw the white clip holding on to the water pan has broken. According to Hitachi Singapore the white holder is a part that was pre reinstalled in Factory. So no spare parts, only their technician can implement a workaround solution.
So I drained away all the still dusty water inside the water pan and there is something like a heating coil.
After cleaning the water pan I fix it back and now I got this question: should I refill clean water to a level that is above the heating coil?
As of today I can’t find any definite answer and when I ask customer service agent they also refuse to tell me asking me to arrange them to come down to do a check.
Anybody know if I need to refill clean water until a level that cover or above the heating coil? Is this heating coil or condensation coil?
Thank you

Try unplugging the Hitachi Refrigerator for 10 minutes to attempt to reset the control board.

aaron,
The Hitachi refrigerator displaying FO with the 07 behind it it MAY mean a refrigerator fan error.
Usually FO errors are with the refrigerator section and F3 error codes are for the freezer section but it may depend on the model number of your fridge.
Can you recheck the model number as it does not come up in our database.
Please let us know the correct model number and we can assist further.

Fo o8 error eiving and compressor and all fan not working in hitachi refrigerator ModleR-D37NPAML (H)
Jamie,
You may have a freezer fan that is bad.
Does the fan run or spin in the freezer?
Does the compressor run at all?
If so, you most likely have a faulty freezer fan… AKA = Evaporator Fan
-RR
Thank you for your reply.
And you are right, the H code stayed for 1-2 hours and switched back to F0 12. Now there’s no cool air coming from the freezer, it’s like a cupboard now. The upper part also seems to heat up too (I could see the water bottles sweating).
What should I do now?
Jamie,
How long have you had your Hitachi Refrigerator plugged back in and seeing the H code?
Make sure the fridge is plugged in for at least 12 to 24 hours with the temp settings cold as possible.
This will give the refrigerator time to get to temp.
The H means it is warm, so just give it time to get to the proper temperature and the H code should go away.
If the F0 12 error code comes back after the fridge gets to temp, let us know and we will assist further.

I have a Hitachi refrigerator model R-S38MPAM. The other day it displayed the F0 12 error code and everything was melting down, so I unplugged it and cleaned.

My 5 door Hitachi refrigerator shows (FO 17) error, what should i do ?
Ismail,
You may have a dirty or malfunctioning ice maker.
We would suggest to unplug fridge, remove ice maker and clean it, check mechanical, electrical issues, be sure it moves freely, no blockage, reinstall, plug fridge back in, and see if cleaning and or fixing it worked.
If not you may have a bad electrical connection somewhere or the ice maker is faulty.
-RR
No ice is being dropped into the ice tray, it is only when I press the ice tray cleaning function that the ice is dropped into the ice tray, but then a gray plastic part comes out and stays out and the ice cube making tray goes back to its normal place, water is poured into it, the gray part stays out, after that the ice is made but it does not drop into the ice tray.
Christian,
The “F” in the error code means there is an error with the freezer.
Check the freezer fan, check for ice build up, check to be sure the temp settings are correct.
