Kenmore Refrigerator dE Error Code
A door (usually freezer or fresh food) has been left open for an extended period.
Common causes
- Door not closed fully
- Door switch not engaging
- Food blocking the door
How to fix it
- Check that both doors are fully closed and no items are blocking.
- Inspect the door gasket for tears or debris preventing a seal.
- If code stays on with doors closed, test the door switch for continuity; replace if faulty.
⚠ When to call a pro: If door switch tests fine but code remains, call a technician to check the control board.
