Adele July 18, 2025 for Model Number LFCC22426 Error FF E displayed, refrigerator section warm, freezer works. I have tried complete defrost, reset same error occurs. I have replaced fan motor, ran linger but did not cool refrigerator section freezer did then same error message. Thermistor was my next thought, but refrigerator never cools at all. What is suggested?
1 Answer Adele, Thank you for your question. The temperature sensor will not cause this error code. WIth the fan running, this will be a faulty control board CSP30242919 that is sending the error code. Read More...
Cj June 20, 2025 for Model Number 795.73059.410 I have a kenmore french door fridge like in video. My freezer is 39 and so is my fridge. fridge seems to run constantly. freezer set to 0 and fridge set to 33. What do u think this could be? compressor is 100ish degrees and sometimes gets as hot as 140. I hear the fridge running and when opening door it goes quiet and then starts up again? could that be the temp sensor in freezer?
1 Answer Hello CJ and thank you for your question. The evaporator in the freezer would need to be inspected for a frost pattern to identify if there is too much frost preventing good air flow, or if there is an incomplete frost pattern. If the frost pattern is incomplete, the condenser fan 4681JB1029D would need to be checked for operation and the condenser checked to ensure it is clean. If the condenser fan and condenser are good, and there is not an excessive amount of frost on the evaporator, then this would be a sealed system issue that would require an EPA-certified technician to diagnose and repair it.

Peter September 11, 2024 for Model Number LFXS26973S/10 Hello I have a Lg french door refrigerator model number LFXS26973S/10. The temperature in the refrigerator section is warmer than what is indicated on the panel Panel = 33 and Thermometer = 40 in the frig middle level. If I set the temperature higher then the temp in the frig goes higher. The freezer is working ok some frost not a lot. Is it the temperature sensor? Thank you Peter Cafasso
1 Answer Hello Peter, thank you for contacting APP, Yes, this is most likely to be the Temperature Sensor 6500JB2002X, if you remove that temperature sensor from the unit and place it in a glass of ice water for 2 to 5 minutes it should read about 30kOs resistance with a multimeter at 32°F. If you test the sensor in this manner and it is reading in range then the issue is likely to be with the Main Control EBR86093702. Read More...
Ray June 15, 2024 for Model Number LFCS27596S/00 Hi, Food is freezing in the top shelf, mostly on the right side, and in the drawers. The freezer also has excessive frost. I have removed most of the items from the top shelf and set the unit to 2/40 for freezer and fridge. Middle shelf reads 35F and top shelf reads 32 F. Is this a sensor issue or would simply defrosting help? Unit doesn't show any error codes. Do I have to work the control panel to get them displayed? Thanks, Ray
1 Answer Ray, as there is excessive frost in the freezer, it would be recommended that the door gaskets be inspected for an air leak. The left ADX73550628 and right ADX73550627 refrigerator door gaskets should especially be inspected along the bottom as this can cause warm air to get in the bottom, causing cold air to be called for and being colder at the top.

Marie April 19, 2024 for Model Number 79573133410 Hi, My refrigerator is working fine but the freezer is not freezing. I performed the 3 stage tests from the board in the back. It seems like the compressor, the fan, and the air flow are all working OK. There are no error messages. There are no blinking lights on the board. The temperature in the freezer does go down to 28, but not lower. I checked the door seal and that is fine. I have reset the unit. I just can't seem to figure out what is wrong. Can you point me in the right direction?
1 Answer Marie, the freezer evaporator would need to be inspected for excessive frost. If the evaporator is not blocked up with ice, there is likely a sealed system failure and it would require an EPA-certified tech to diagnose and repair the specific failure. Read More...
Chris September 28, 2023 for Model Number 79570333410 Hello, we recently had issues with our Kenmore 79570333410 refrigerator not cooling. We received the error ER DH on the screen and after searching, found a video for the temperature sensor, which I bought and replaced in my unit. When replacing the part, I noticed the entire coils, heater and electrical components were frosted over. I defrosted everything, put the new sensor in, and bolted everything back together. The fridge and freezer were working great for about 2 days, but now we are getting the error again and all components are frosted over again. Would this be due to the freezer defrost heater?
1 Answer Chris, Test to make sure that the heater has continuity and if it does then this will be an issue with the main control board. Read More...
Dan September 21, 2022 for Model Number LMXS28626S/00 I have a LG LMXS28626S/02 and trying to determine if there is only one temperature sensor for both the fridge and freezer section of if each section has it's own sensor. My freezer is totally fine, but the fridge section is too warm and I think it might be the temperature sensor. Also where is the sensor located? Thank you.
1 Answer Dan, The refrigerator will have a sensor for both sections and for the refrigerator section will be on the ceiling under a small oval grill. The sensor is not likely the cause of this issue. Check the damper and make sure that the evaporator fan is running and that the unit is defrosting properly. Read More...
Mohbil January 15, 2022 for Model Number LG lfxs26596S Update: I've replaced the temperature sensor and still getting error code "f dS". I had purchased part number 6615JB2005N as well, but realized it is the wrong part for my model. Although the defrost control assembly on mine is very similar, it is wired to the defroster itself and I can't find an identical part here or anywhere else. What do you suggest? Original Question: My used LG LFXS26596 was cooling very slowly when I bought it, but is no longer cooling at all (barely). Error code "f dS" for freezer defrost sensor shows within minutes of unplugging/plugging in the fridge. I also pressed the fridge/freezer buttons simultaneously on the front panel to display the temperatures the fridge is reading, and it shows -21°C for the freezer and 1°C for the fridge. Used a multimeter on the freezer temp sensor and ohms are low (3-4 ohms at room temp and 10 ohms when it's surrounded by ice). The evaporator coils are covered in ice. Could all of this be explained by bad fridge/freezer temperature sensors?
1 Answer Mohbill, For this issue, the part that you would need to replace is the defrost heater which will have the controller with it. You could use the part that you have by cutting and spling the wires if it is the same part but it is always best to get the manufacturers suggested part which is MEE63545701. Read More...

In Chul Jang September 13, 2021 for Model Number LMXS28626S I am suddenly having issues with my fridge where the temperature is too high. Overall, is not not cooling properly so items in the freezer are melting down. I checked the defrost sensor with a multimeter to make sure it wasn't having some issues (I replaced this 1 year ago as evaporator was building ice) and it checked OK. I am now trying to see if should replace the thermistor but apparently there are two... one in the freezer and one in the top refrigerator section. My issue is that these two sensor have different ranges and I want to know if this sensor is for the freezer or the refrigerator section? If this is for the freezer, where can I find the sensor for the refrigerator?
1 Answer In Chul Jang, The freezer thermistor will be part number 6500JB2002X. The refrigerator sensor will be located in the ceiling under an oblong grill towards the back and the part number will be 6500JB2001B. It would be recommended to check the evaporator coils frost pattern. If there is frost but very little then it would not be the sensors causing this but would be more of a sealed system issue that would require service. Read More...
