Bertazzoni Refrigerator Error Codes

Bertazzoni Refrigerator Error Code E7

The E7 error code on a Bertazzoni refrigerator indicates that the ambient temperature sensor has failed. The ambient temperature sensor is a small, electronic device that is located outside of the refrigerator. The sensor measures the ambient temperature in the room where the refrigerator is located and sends a signal to the refrigerator’s control board. The control board then uses this signal to adjust the refrigerator’s cooling performance.

If the ambient temperature sensor fails, the refrigerator may not be able to maintain the desired temperature.

This can lead to a number of problems, including:

  • Food spoilage: If the refrigerator is too warm, food may spoil.
  • Energy inefficiency: If the refrigerator is too cold, it will use more energy than necessary.
  • Frost buildup: If the refrigerator is too cold, frost may build up on the evaporator coils, which can reduce the refrigerator’s efficiency.

There are a few possible causes of an ambient temperature sensor failure on a Bertazzoni refrigerator. One possibility is that the sensor is simply defective and needs to be replaced. Another possibility is that the sensor is dirty or damaged. If the sensor is dirty, you can try cleaning it with a soft cloth. If the sensor is damaged, it will need to be replaced.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you see the E7 error code on your Bertazzoni refrigerator, you can try the following troubleshooting steps:

  1. Check to make sure that the refrigerator is plugged in and that the power is on. This may seem like a simple step, but it is important to check the basics first.
  2. Check the ambient temperature sensor for damage. Look for any cracks, dents, or other signs of damage. If the sensor is dirty, you can try cleaning it with a soft cloth.
  3. If the ambient temperature sensor is not damaged, it may need to be replaced. You can contact Bertazzoni customer service for assistance with replacing the ambient temperature sensor.

Prevention Tips

To help prevent ambient temperature sensor failures on Bertazzoni refrigerators, you can follow these tips:

  • Keep the refrigerator clean and free of debris. Dirt and debris can build up on the ambient temperature sensor and interfere with its ability to function properly.
  • Avoid placing the refrigerator in direct sunlight. Direct sunlight can cause the ambient temperature sensor to overheat and malfunction.
  • If you live in a hot climate, you may need to dehumidify the air in your home. A high humidity level can increase the risk of ambient temperature sensor failure.

If you have tried the troubleshooting steps above and you are still seeing the E7 error code, you should contact a qualified appliance repair technician.

Additional Information

The ambient temperature sensor is also known as the external temperature sensor or the room temperature sensor.
