The Logic Verdict

Ice Buildup. The fan is hitting ice. You need to defrost it.

What It Means

The 22E code points to the Evaporator Fan.

Common Causes

  1. Ice buildup around the fan blades.
  2. Faulty fan motor.
  3. Door left open too long (causing frost).

Step-by-Step Fix

  1. Force Defrost: Hold ‘Power Freeze’ + ‘Fridge’ for 8 seconds. Cycle to ‘Fd’ (Forced Defrost).
  2. Manual Defrost: Unplug fridge for 24 hours with doors open.
  3. Listen: If noise persists after defrost, replace the fan motor.
