Possible Causes
Misaligned door, weak or missing door magnet, faulty door switch, or a warped door gasket preventing full closure.
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: No internal electrical work is required for basic checks, but unplug the unit if removing door trims.
Steps to address d1:
- Check door closure: Ensure the door closes fully and latches magnetically. Look for items or shelves preventing full closure.
- Inspect gasket: Run a thin strip of paper around the door seal; if it pulls out easily in spots with the door closed, the gasket may be warped or compressed. Replace if necessary.
- Verify door alignment: Check that the door is level and square with the cabinet. Adjust hinges if the door is sagging or rubbing.
- Check door magnet and sensor: Confirm the magnet is present in the door edge and aligned with the sensor in the frame. Replace a missing magnet or faulty sensor as needed.
- Reset alarm: After correcting mechanical issues, close the door firmly and allow the alarm to reset. If 'd1' persists, test and replace the door switch.
