How to Fix AIR FILTER INDICATOR LIGHT Error (Step-by-Step)

Locate the ‘Filter Reset’ or similarly labeled button on your refrigerator’s control panel.
Press and hold this button for approximately 3-5 seconds and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
You should hear a beep or see the indicator light flash and then turn off.
If the light does not reset, try opening and closing the refrigerator door to ensure the system recognizes the action.
The indicator is now reset and will illuminate again when it’s time to change the filter, typically in 6 months.
Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
Check for simple blockages (lint screen, drain path, or filter) and clean anything you find.

Still Not Working?
If the replacement part didn’t fix the issue, you may have a wiring problem or main board failure.
