Possible Causes

Shorted or open LED strip, Damaged LED driver on main PCB, Loose LED harness connection, Moisture ingress into LED housing

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the appliance before working on lighting components.

Steps to address E12:

  • Inspect LED strips: Open the door and visually inspect the LED strips or modules for dark segments, burn marks, or condensation inside the lens.
  • Check connections: Remove the interior trim covering the LED wiring and ensure connectors are fully seated and free of corrosion.
  • Test with door switch: Manually operate the door switch (if visible) to see if the lights flicker or come on intermittently, indicating a loose connection.
  • Replace LED module: If a particular strip or module is dark or damaged, replace it with a Neff-specified LED assembly.
  • Driver fault: If all LEDs appear intact but do not light and E12 persists, the LED driver circuit on the main PCB may be defective and require board replacement by a technician.
