Possible Causes
Misaligned door, Faulty door switch or magnetic sensor, Warped cabinet or hinges, Items protruding from shelves
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No internal electrical work is required for basic checks.
Steps:
- 1. Check for obstructions: Ensure no containers or shelves are preventing full closure.
- 2. Inspect alignment: Verify that the door is level and lines up with the cabinet. Adjust hinges if necessary.
- 3. Test door switch: Press the door switch manually; the alarm should stop. If not, the CDA door switch or sensor may be faulty and should be replaced.
- 4. Gasket check: Replace a deformed gasket that prevents proper sealing.
Note: Persistent false alarms after these checks may indicate a control board issue.
