    It is not intermittent. The "alarm" continues for at least a minute straight. The manual references nothing if the sort and has done it when the ice bin has been empty.

SOURCE: Kenmore Elite Trio Frige...Beeping three times in a row suddenly

this unit has a history of the light circuit failing and it will cause the lights to either stay on or off. if they stay on, it will melt the housing around the upper bulb area. it has a recall and should be covered by sears for no charge. it is the control board failure and has a sticking relay for the light circuit, needs board replaced.
the 3 beeps are the unit thinking it has a door open. turn off the alarm on the door control board and call sears 800 # for repair.

SOURCE: Beeping from refrigerator about once a minute.

If this is listed under the right model, then the only thing it could be is some models have a
door alarm,that will beep if the door is not closed. You could check and clean the gasket.
Or it the switch that tells the fridg that the door is closed. Check if there is a top door adjustment to bring the door closer to the fridge where the door hinge is. This might apply or push on the switch more.

SOURCE: door alarm keeps sounding even though doors aren't ajar

The problem is the doorswitch of the freezer door. The door 'bump' which has to push in the swich doesn't push it in far enough. You can try and hold the switch an dpush it in with your finger and see if the sound continues. You can try to adjust the door, but easier is to glue or tape something to the door 'bump' so it pushes the switch further in. Hope this was the issue.

SOURCE: The alarm beep which tells you to close

Hello,


Sounds like you have a bad door switch. Depending on the age of the fridge, it might still be under warranty. If it's not, then you might be able to access the door switch yourself and pull it out & replace it.


Good luck......

SOURCE: Help....kenmore trio refrigerator, error message "er co"

The Er Co error code signifies a communication error between the display control board on the freezer door and the main power board on the outer back panel of the refrigerator.

Check the wiring and connections between the low voltage interface and the main high voltage board.

If you are able to unplug the refrigerator and remove the cover over the control board on the back of the refrigerator,
you can check the wiring connection on the main control board.

If this wiring connection is okay, check the wire harness connection under the hinge cover on the top of the left hand refrigerator door.
If these connections are okay, then you will need access the wire harness connection in the dispenser.

Frigidaire refrigerator beeps every 20 seconds or so. three beeps.

try opening the door.leave it open.unplug the fridge for at least 5 minutes, no less,with the door still open.after that,plug it back in.wait for it to beep.then close the door.
this would reset the door alarm,which beepes when the door isn't properly closed.
also you should wait 24 hours between changing the temperature or it can mess up your fridge.!

I have a Kenmore refrigerator top mount freezer, which quite often starts sounding 3 beeps.

This refrigerator should have an alarm for an open door.

If the beeping is indicating a fault code, you should see this indicated on the display.

If no fault code is indicated and the alarm is due to an open door even with the switches pushed in, then you could have a bad door switch or a failed control board.

I have a Kenmore 70323 side by side with bottom freezer. It keeps making a loud, high pitch buzzing sound. This stops on its own but will stop every time one off e doors are opened..

Fridge FAN CONTINUALLY STAYS ON OR SHUTS OFF WHEN DOOR IS OPENED:

NORMALLY WHEN THIS HAPPENS U EITHER HAVE A DOOR CONTINUALLY OPEN ISSUE OR A BAD DOOR SEAL LETTING AIR IN AND CAUSING FAN TO OVERWORK ITSELF. ANOTHER CAUSE CAN BE DIRTY COILS AND CONDENSER AND LASTLY NOT TO COMMON IS A SHORT IN THE FAN SYSTEM ITSELF. A MORE PROBABLE CAUSE COULD BE BAD THERMISTORS OR EVEN COLD CONTROL THERMOSTAT ( WHEN THE THERMISTORS OR THERMOSTAT DO NOT GET/GIVE A PROPER READING, THEY CAN CAUSE THE FAN TO CONTINUE TO OPERATE AS THEY FAIL TO RECOGNIZE OR REGULATE THE PROPER TEMPERATURE.

Frigidaire FFHS2612LS4 wont stop beeping

Hey Brandon, this is JK. Thank you for your post. I understand that your refrigerator is beeping none stop. When the door(s) have been opened for longer than 10 minutes, an audio alarm sounds and the interior lights shut off. This protects the liner from melting due to the heat produced by the light bulbs. The alarm will sound every two minutes until the doors are closed. Once the doors are closed, the alarm will reset. The refrigerator will also beep on some models to inform the user that the door has been left open and the cool air is escaping. Check to make certain that the gaskets on both doors have no gaps and that the appliance is maintaining the desired temperature. If all of these suggestions pan out and the problem still persist, think about what may have happened prior to this occurrence. For instance, did you notice any error codes, odors, or other strange functions prior to this issue? If you are still having these issues and can think of anything in particular, please feel free to reconnect.
Hope this helps!

Beeping & not cooling

Hi Hope, usually when the door(s) have been opened for longer than 10 minutes, an audio alarm sounds and the interior lights shut OFF. This protects the liner from melting due to the heat produced by the light bulbs. The alarm will sound every two minutes until the doors are closed. Once the doors are closed, the alarm is reset.

The refrigerator will also beep on some models to inform the user that the door has been left open and the cool air is escaping.

If the alarm keeps on going off after the doors have been closed and unit has been reset, I recommend contacting a professional technician so they can diagnose and repair your refrigerator.

My kenmore elite 106.59966803 beeps every two minutes. Doors are shut and the unit seems to be working fine. Any suggestions?

if the refrigerator is beeping -- then this is a sign that the door switch is not working properly,loose or broken.
to stop the beeping --- press and hold the "lock/alarm" button on the control panel until the indicator light turns off. ( this turns off the 'doors open' alarm ) --- now if you get the door switch fixed and you want to turn the 'door open' alarm back on, then press and hold the " lock/alarm " button again until the indicator light come back on.
