Freezer shows E8 and may alarm for high temperature even when cooling seems normal

Safety first: Disconnect power before removing switch components.

Steps:

• Check door closure: Ensure the door closes fully and the gasket is not preventing the switch from being pressed.
• Locate door switch: Typically found in the door frame or as a plunger switch at the top/side of the cabinet.
• Test switch:
  • Press the switch manually; the interior light should turn off. If it stays on, the switch may be faulty.
  • On magnetic reed switch models, ensure the door magnet is present and aligned.
• Replace switch: Pry out or unscrew the switch, disconnect the wires, and install a new genuine Beko door switch or reed sensor.
• If E8 remains after switch replacement, the main control board door input circuit may be defective and needs professional diagnosis.
