Modern refrigerators are equipped not only with electronic control, but also a self-diagnosis system. If one of the parts fails, the fault code is displayed. The errors of the refrigerator "Indesit" (Indesit) and their meaning are indicated in the instruction manual, as well as in our article. Decrypt the characters on the screen, you can quickly find the cause of the breakdown.
Error codes of the refrigerator "Indesit"
First of all, experts advise to restart the technique in order to exclude the system failure. For this:
- unplug the unit from the mains;
- wait 10-15 minutes;
- connect the refrigerator.
If the icons no longer appear on the display, then it was a malfunction. If you seem again, then look for answers in our table.
DTC | Reason for occurrence | How to fix the problem |
F01 | The start-up relay does not work (latch). | To conduct an inspection:
In case of a malfunction, a motor or an electronic board must be replaced. |
F02 | The contacts of the starter relay are broken. No connection. | What you need to check:
Install a new motor or control board. |
F03, F14 | The control panel board does not work. | Repair or replacement of parts. |
F04 | The fan stopped working in the freezer compartment. | Your actions:
|
F05 | Problems with the control panel. The damper does not work. | Retighten wiring to connector J3 on the module. Check the tightness of the Multiflow flap. |
F06 | The defrost heater does not work. Closed thyristor. | Carry out J6 diagnostics with a multimeter. You need to make sure that the heater is properly connected. In case of malfunction, replace. |
F07 | The heater responsible for defrosting does not consume current. | Check J6. Diagnosis of connecting the heater and tray in the distribution box. Measuring the resistance of defrost heaters. |
F08 | The solenoid valve is not connected correctly. | Inspection J8, multimeter measurement of contacts 1 and 2. Make sure that the valve is connected correctly, and that it is turned off while the compressor is running. |
F09 | The program encountered an error. | Changing the EEPROM card, checking the installation. |
F10 |
For appliances Noo Frost: problems with the flap. For CCZ units: a solenoid valve fault. |
In the first case, you need to examine the J7 connections. Tighten the damper wires. Replace the nonworking item. In the second case, connectors J5 are tested. The valve should shut off the compartment with the temperature when the compressor operates. |
F11 | In NF models, the fan thyristor was closed in the refrigerator compartment. |
Same action as error F04. Diagnose connector J6 on the main module, measure contacts 1 and 2, calculate the values in ohms. Inspect the wiring of the fan. Install a new fan. |
F12 | The display is not connected to the control module. | LED control:
For the Ever Fresh system: the diagnosis of J13 and the 4th contact. For touch panel:
|
F13 | The fan does not work in the refrigerators NF. | Similarly faults F04 and F11. |
F15 | In the Multiflow system, the thyristor of the heater was closed. | Ring J2 and pins 3 and 1. Check heater for short circuit. After that, you need to replace the broken parts. |
F16 |
In refrigerators with static cooling, problems with the fan. In the Noë Frost system, problems with the operation of the Multiflow heater. |
Check the connectors J2, 1 and 3. Make sure the heater is connected correctly, replace it. |
F17 | For Ever Fresh: malfunction of the vacuum pump. Damage to the valve (AQUA CARE). | What to check: J2, 1 and 2 pin. Connect a new pump or board. |
F18 | Non-working valve AQUA CARE 2. | The bell of J2, pin 3 and 4, as well as the valve. |
F20 | There is no light in the office. | Replacing the bulb. |
F21 | The NTC thermal sensor does not work. | Installing the new module. |
F22 | The NTC air sensor contacts are broken. | Inspection J11, 3 and 4. |
F23 | Disregard of the wiring of the evaporator sensor. | Same as for F22, only pins 1 and 2. |
F24 | The wiring of NTC in the freezer is damaged. | Check J11, 5 and 6. |
F25 | The connection of the NTC evaporator is damaged. | Diagnosis J11, 1 and 2. |
F26 | The wiring of the air sensor is broken. | Diagnosis J11, J12, 3 and 4. |
F28 | The screen module is broken. |
The remaining faults are also connected to the control panel. Buttons do not respond to pressing.
Code | Which button does not work | What to do |
F 40 | "Start" | Replace the module. |
