| Code | Fault / Diagnostics | Appliances | Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 Blinks | Water Inlet Fault Info: The dishwasher did not fill with water within the expected time. This can be caused by a closed water supply valve, a kinked hose, or a defective water inlet valve. | Dishwasher | |
| 7 Blinks | Heating System Failure Info: The dishwasher's heating element or high-limit thermostat has failed. The control board does not detect the water temperature rising during the heat cycle. | Dishwasher | |
| C | High Temperature Alert Info: The temperature in the fresh food or freezer compartment has been above the safe threshold for an extended period. | Refrigerator | |
| CF | Communication Failure Info: Communication has been lost between the main control board and the user interface/display board. | Refrigerator | |
| d | Freezer Door Ajar Info: The freezer door has been left open for more than 2-5 minutes, triggering an alarm. | Refrigerator | |
| Door Ajar | Alarm sounds and 'Door Ajar' is displayed. Info: The refrigerator or freezer door has been open for more than five minutes. | Refrigerator | |
| E0 | Icemaker Fault Info: A general icemaker fault has been detected, which could be a jammed motor, failed sensor, or an issue with the control board. | Refrigerator | |
| E1 | Refrigerator Sensor Fault Info: The thermistor (temperature sensor) in the fresh food section has failed (either open or shorted circuit). | Refrigerator | |
| E2 | Freezer Sensor Fault Info: The thermistor (temperature sensor) in the freezer section has failed (either open or shorted circuit). | Refrigerator | |
| E3 | Defrost Thermistor Fault Info: The defrost thermistor, which monitors the evaporator coil temperature during a defrost cycle, has failed. | Refrigerator | |
| E4 | Defrost System Failure Info: The automatic defrost system has malfunctioned. This could be a failed defrost heater, defrost bi-metal thermostat, or control board. | Refrigerator | |
| E6 | Icemaker Sensor Error Info: The control board has detected a fault with the icemaker's optical sensor system or thermal fuse. | Refrigerator | |
| E1 F2 | Oven Lockout Error Info: The oven's control board has entered a lockout mode due to a critical error, often related to the door lock or temperature controls. | Oven | |
| F10 | Runaway Temperature Info: Similar to F3 E2, this indicates an overheating condition, often during preheat or cooking. It's typically caused by a faulty sensor or a stuck relay on the control board. | Oven | |
| F1 E1 | Control Board Failure Info: There is a fault within the main electronic control board (CCU). This is often an internal component failure. | Oven | |
| F1 E2 | Motor Control Unit Fault Info: The main control has detected an internal error on the Motor Control Unit (MCU) board. | Washing Machine | |
| F2 E1 | Stuck Keypad Info: A button on the oven's control panel has been detected as being pressed for too long. This could be a physically stuck button or an internal short circuit in the keypad. | Oven | |
| F3 E0 | Oven Temperature Sensor Open Info: The control board has detected an open circuit in the oven temperature sensor. This means the sensor has failed or its wiring is disconnected. | Oven | |
| F3 E1 | Oven Temperature Sensor Shorted Info: The control board has detected a short circuit in the oven temperature sensor. The sensor has failed and is providing an incorrect low-resistance reading. | Oven | |
| F3 E2 | Oven Overheating Info: The oven temperature has exceeded the maximum allowable limit. This could be due to a welded relay on the control board or a faulty temperature sensor. | Oven | |
| F4 E0 | A/D Converter Error Info: There is a failure in the Analog-to-Digital converter circuit on the main control board, which interprets sensor readings. | Oven | |
| F4 E3 | Wash Motor Not Running Info: The main circulation pump (wash motor) is not operating. This could be a jammed pump impeller, faulty motor, or a bad connection to the control board. | Dishwasher | |
| F5 E1 | Lid Switch Fault Info: The main control does not detect the lid switch opening and closing correctly. The switch or the actuator on the lid is faulty. | Washing Machine | |
| F5 E2 | Door Lock Failure Info: The door is not locking properly. This can be caused by an obstruction in the door, a misaligned door strike, or a faulty door lock assembly. | Washing Machine | |
| F6 E2 | Communication Error Info: Communication between the main control board (MCU) and the user interface control board has been lost. | Dishwasher | |
| F6 E4 | Float Switch Open / No Water Detected Info: The dishwasher is not filling with water, or the float switch that detects the water level is stuck or has failed. | Dishwasher | |
| F7 E1 | Motor Speed Fault Info: The control board is unable to detect the motor speed correctly. This could be a fault with the motor, the motor control unit (MCU), or the wiring between them. | Washing Machine | |
| F7 E2 | Motor Control Overheat Info: The heat sink on the motor control unit (MCU) has become too hot. This can be caused by restricted airflow, a prolonged overload condition, or a failing MCU. | Washing Machine | |
| F7 E6 | Motor Circuit Fault Info: An open circuit has been detected in the drive motor. This can be caused by a broken wire in the harness or a complete motor failure. | Washing Machine | |
| F7 E7 | Motor Stalled Info: The control board attempted to turn the motor but could not detect any rotation. The motor may be seized or there could be a severe overload. | Washing Machine |
