FREEZER SENSOR ERROR

Cause

If FS is displayed The Main PCB is not getting a signal from the sensor.

Solution

Check the wiring at the sensor and Main PCB.

Remember an ERROR CODE will only appear if 0 or 5Vdc is detected at the Main PCB

    Unit is getting cold, freezer temp -3 and is set at zero(0), FF section 38. And full frost pattern at the Evap, but error code is display F DS, indicating issues with defrost sensor.

  2. Would the resistance go to zero if the temperature goes higher? As in making it look like the sensor is shorted – causing the FS error

    1. According to the chart the higher the temperature the lower the resistance goes.
      I have a chart that goes to 104F and freezer sensor should read 1.4kohms at that temperature.
      you should never have a sensor that reads zero ohms as that is a direct short and will cause an error code.
      so if you do have a sensor that is zero ohms then replace it because it is defective.

      All the freezer and refrigerator sensors on LG models will be in the kohm range at reasonable temperatures
      example for freezer -39F 73.29kohms 104F 1.4kohms
      example for refrigerator -39F 225.1kohms 104F 6.2kohms

  3. F5 error message 3 days ago, ice melting and not cooling properly. Check main board connectors and plug again. All tested ok. No leaks after test. RNN240202032154
