This is a dual evaporator model and we usually only see the refrigerator side stop cooling due to a fan issue or ice build up. See diagnostic chart below.
Wait 5 seconds between button pushes
Self Diagnosis: Press both buttons (Energy
Saver– Lighting) simultaneously (No sound
when both buttons are pressed at the same
time) ’til the display quits blinking and beeps, 8-
12 seconds, then release and read Fault Codes.
This will also cancel the Fault Mode created by
self-diagnosis at power up.
Forced Mode: Press both buttons (Lighting– Fridge)
simultaneously (No sound when both buttons are
pressed at the same time) ‘til it beeps and goes
blank, 8-12 seconds
