Possible Causes

Stuck turbo cool button, Control board software glitch, Fresh food thermistor misreading, UI board not exiting turbo mode

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No internal high-voltage work is required for basic checks. Unplug the unit before removing any control panel covers.

  • 1. Cancel Turbo Cool: Press the Turbo Cool button once to cancel the function. The indicator should stop flashing after a short delay.
  • 2. Power cycle: If the indicator remains stuck, unplug the refrigerator for 5 minutes, then plug back in. Recheck the Turbo Cool status.
  • 3. Check button operation: Press other buttons to confirm they respond normally. If only the Turbo Cool button is unresponsive, the UI keypad may be failing.
  • 4. Monitor temperatures: Use a thermometer to verify that the fresh food section is not freezing items. If temperatures are too low or too high, the thermistor or control board may be at fault.
  • 5. Service recommendation: Persistent Turbo Cool issues after reset usually require UI or main control board replacement.
