Refrigerator displays CE and may stop cooling or cycle erratically.

Safety first: Unplug the refrigerator before accessing the compressor area.

• Access compressor compartment: Remove the rear lower access panel to expose the compressor and control electronics.
• Inspect inverter module: On many Electrolux models with variable-speed compressors, an inverter board is mounted near the compressor. Check for burn marks, bulging components, or a burnt smell.
• Check connections: Ensure the harness from the main control to the inverter and from the inverter to the compressor is fully seated.
• Listen for compressor start: After restoring power, listen for the compressor attempting to start. Repeated clicking or no sound with CE code often indicates inverter or compressor failure.
• Professional service: Diagnosis of inverter and compressor windings requires specialized tools and handling of the sealed system. Contact a qualified technician for further testing and replacement.
