How to Fix COOLING OFF INDICATOR LIGHT Error (Step-by-Step)

Locate the refrigerator’s main control panel, usually on the inside top or on the exterior dispenser.
Look for a button or setting labeled ‘Cooling On/Off’, ‘Refrigerator Power’, or a similar name.
Press the button or cycle through the options to turn the cooling system back on.
You should hear the compressor kick on shortly after, and the ‘Cooling Off’ light will turn off.
Allow several hours for the refrigerator to return to its set temperature.
If the light does not turn off, unplug the refrigerator for 5 minutes, then plug it back in to reset the controls.
Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

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