Error Code: FLASHING “C” LED Difficulty: Hard
Problem: Fault in the temperature sensor.
How to Fix FLASHING “C” LED Error (Step-by-Step)
- Unplug the refrigerator from the wall outlet to ensure your safety.
- Locate the temperature sensor. It is typically found in the fresh food compartment, near a light or inside the control console at the top of the unit.
- If in a control console, you may need to gently pry off a cover using a putty knife or release clips to access the sensor.
- Disconnect the wire harness attached to the old sensor. It usually has a small clip you need to press to release it.
- Connect the new temperature sensor (part 240597203 or 5303918775) to the wire harness.
- Secure the new sensor in place, ensuring it is positioned exactly like the old one.
- Reassemble any covers or components you removed, plug the refrigerator back in, and allow it to run for a few hours to confirm the fix.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
