1 Answer Judy, this error code is going to indicate a shorted out thermistor 297018400. The thermistor can be tested to identify if it has shorted out or if the control is improperly operating. Read More...

Jim March 01, 2014 for Model Number 253.28469801 What does "0F" code mean on elctronic control. Unit has power but is not working.
1 Answer Hello Jim, To turn the freezer off set the control to 10° and push the up arrow. “OF” will appear in the display. With the control set to off, the freezer light will still operate, but neither the compressor or the defrost cycle will. There is a 13 minute compressor off time delay built into the control. To turn the control on push the down arrow. 10° will appear in the display. If the freezer is to be operated at a temperature below 10°, push the down arrow until the desired temperature is indicated on the control. The control is designed to fail safe. If the control fails the compressor runs continuously with a 30 minute defrost cycle every 12 hours. If turning the unit back on produces the same results, replace the control 297366201. Read More...

1 Answer Tom, With the display being dim and not responding, the issue with your unit would be a bad control board 297366201. Read More...
Frances J November 22, 2013 for Model Number 25328459800 The freezer runs until the temperature is below the preset temperature. It keeps running until the compressor gets hot and the protection relay cuts the compressor off. After the compressor cools for a few minutes it comes back on. It continues this cycle until it is unplugged. It has the digital temperature control. What would cause this?
1 Answer Frances, Most likely the cause for the unit continuing to run even though the temp is below the preset temp would be a faulty thermistor 297018400 which is located behind the wall in the lower part of freezer. Read More...
