How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the refrigerator before removing pantry drawer covers or control modules.

Steps to resolve:

  • Check settings: Verify the pantry/deli drawer temperature setting is appropriate and not set to warm.
  • Inspect harness: Remove the pantry drawer and front cover to access the control and sensor wiring. Ensure connectors are fully seated.
  • Look for moisture damage: Spills can damage the pantry control. Clean and dry the area thoroughly.

If E15 remains and the drawer temperature is clearly incorrect, the pantry thermistor or control module may need replacement. A technician can test the sensor and confirm the faulty component.
