⚠️ Safety Warning: Appliance repair involves electricity, gas, and moving parts. Always disconnect power before working on any appliance.
Error Code: ER DH Difficulty: Moderate
Problem: Damper heater error.
How to Fix ER DH Error (Step-by-Step)
- Disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply before starting any repairs.
- Access the damper control assembly, which is typically located in the fresh food compartment, behind a light cover or a control panel.
- Visually inspect the wiring connected to the damper assembly. Look for any loose, broken, or burnt wires. Reconnect any loose wires.
- If the wiring appears to be intact, the damper control assembly (Part #241508001) is likely faulty.
- To replace the damper assembly, disconnect its wire harness and remove any screws holding it in place. Install the new damper assembly and reconnect the wiring.
- If the problem persists after replacing the damper assembly, the issue may be with the main control board (Part #5303918476), which sends power to the damper heater.
- Replace the main control board, which is usually found on the back of the refrigerator behind a service panel.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
