Possible Causes

NTC sensor drift out of tolerance, Poor sensor mounting causing incorrect readings, Control board ADC fault

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the appliance.

Steps:

  • Check all NTC sensors: Measure resistance of evaporator and cabinet sensors at a known temperature and compare to Bauknecht specifications.
  • Verify mounting: Ensure sensors are firmly attached to surfaces (evaporator plate, cabinet wall) with clips or thermal paste as originally installed.
  • Replace suspect sensors: If any sensor is significantly out of spec, replace it with the correct Bauknecht part.
  • Control board: If all sensors are within tolerance but E16 persists, the main control PCB may have an internal measurement fault and require replacement.
