Crosley refrigerators have been reliable for food storage. However, I faced a significant issue with one unit’s cooling system. Initiating a service call was relatively straightforward, but technician availability was a challenge. The technician diagnosed the problem as a faulty compressor, which required replacement. While the repair was eventually completed, the delay in service and the inconvenience of a non-operational refrigerator for days were noteworthy issues.
E01: Evaporator Fan Motor Fault
The fan motor responsible for circulating cold air within the refrigerator compartment is malfunctioning or not running at the expected speed.
E02: Defrost Sensor Malfunction
The sensor monitoring frost buildup on the evaporator coils is providing inaccurate readings or has failed.
E03: Ice Maker Issue
The ice maker isn’t producing ice, or the ice cubes are irregular in shape or size.
E04: Temperature Sensor Error
There’s an inconsistency between the set temperature and the actual temperature inside the refrigerator or freezer compartment.
E05: Door Seal Leak
The refrigerator door seal is compromised, leading to cold air escaping and potentially causing the appliance to work harder.
E06: Water Dispenser Malfunction
The water dispenser, if equipped, isn’t dispensing water or is leaking.
E07: Compressor Overload
The compressor, the main component responsible for cooling, is working harder than normal or overheating.
E08: Drain Pan Overflow
The drain pan, located beneath the refrigerator, is overflowing or not evaporating water as it should.
E09: Refrigerant Leak
The refrigerant, vital for cooling processes, is suspected to be leaking, affecting the appliance’s efficiency.
E10: Fresh Food Compartment Too Warm
The main compartment of the refrigerator is failing to maintain the desired temperature, potentially due to airflow issues or sensor malfunctions.
E11: Condenser Fan Motor Error
The fan motor that aids in cooling the condenser coils is malfunctioning, possibly leading to reduced cooling efficiency.
E12: Freezer Temperature Inconsistency
The freezer compartment is not maintaining the desired temperature, which may be due to issues with airflow or sensor malfunctions.
E13: Water Filter Replacement Reminder
The refrigerator’s water filter needs replacement, indicated by decreased water flow or altered taste.
E14: Damper Control Error
The damper control, which regulates the airflow between the freezer and refrigerator compartments, is malfunctioning, causing temperature imbalances.
E15: LED Light Malfunction
The internal LED lights of the refrigerator are not functioning correctly or are flickering.
E16: Humidity Control Malfunction
The humidity control system, typically used for crispers, is not maintaining optimal moisture levels.
E17: Thermistor Fault
A thermistor, responsible for measuring temperatures inside the fridge, is giving inaccurate readings or has failed.
E18: Control Board Communication Error
There is a communication error between the main control board and the refrigerator’s components, potentially affecting functionality.
E19: Door Ajar Alarm
The refrigerator door or freezer drawer has been left open for an extended period, risking food spoilage and increased energy consumption.
E20: Adaptive Defrost Error
The adaptive defrost system, responsible for determining when to defrost, is not functioning correctly, risking frost buildup.
