Protect food first and avoid repeated power cycling. The checks below concern controls, ice, filters and accessible compartments only; sealed-system, wiring and fan work belongs to qualified service. What the alert means: The control board sees abnormal fan feedback; frost can obstruct the blades, but wiring or the fan motor may also be responsible.
What to distinguish first: E FF points to the freezer fan and E rF to the refrigerator fan; record the exact letters before resetting power. 1. Confirm the exact symptom — The control board sees abnormal fan feedback; frost can obstruct the blades, but wiring or the fan motor may also be responsible. 2. Prepare safely — Keep the doors closed, move perishable food if needed and disconnect power only for the single reset described below.
3. Apply the official check — Disconnect power for about five minutes once, restore it and listen without opening panels; keep doors closed while temperatures recover. 4. Interpret one retest — If the code returns or cooling falls, move perishables and arrange LG service rather than repeatedly cycling power. The official LG procedure identifies this exact symptom and supports the checks above.
