Can anyone help me with the part I would need to put right the warning that is flashing on my freezer, :dE is flashing and in the book it says call for service..Well I would like to save the money and do it myself.
I am sure some one has the answer. You guys in this forum were great on my oven! Thanks
My GE refrigerator did the same thing. The “de” display flashed and as you said the GE Use and Care Guide says to call for service. I checked the freezer for a few days and saw that there was no problem with food defrosting, so I figured that before I called for service I would try a simple fix. I unplugged the power cord for a few seconds and then I plugged the cord back into the power outlet. Sure enough the flashing “de” display light went out and was replaced by the NORMAL display light. I think what must of happened was that there was a temporary power failure that cause the diagnostic codes display to malfunction. Problem solved. No real problem at all in my case.http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gifgif
DE is most likely indicating a defrost problem.. open the freezer and take a look at the back of the freezer wall - is there a bunch of frost on that back wall?
There also could be a temperature problem due to a defrost failure, easy to check the freezer temperature to confirm.
Turn the fridge freezer off by the wall socket for 10 minutes ! I had the same problem but turning the fridge off sorted the problem out :o)
Thank you unplugging it waiting a few min and plugging it back in worked for me!
