How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before removing the control board cover.

Steps:

  • 1. Power reset: Unplug the unit for at least 10 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge. Reconnect and check if the error clears.
  • 2. Check model configuration: If the main PCB was recently replaced, verify that the correct Blomberg board and jumper settings (if applicable) are used for your model.
  • 3. Inspect board: Look for signs of surge damage or moisture on the PCB. Dry any condensation and ensure the enclosure is sealed.
  • 4. Firmware update (technician): Some boards can be reprogrammed with a service tool. This should be done only by an authorized Blomberg technician.
  • 5. Replace PCB: If E13 persists, replace the main control PCB with the exact part number specified for your ice maker.
