Blomberg Fridge Error Code E9

Why Blomberg refrigerator error code E9 occur and how to fix it

When your Blomberg refrigerator displays an E9 error code, it indicates a specific problem. Are you facing this issue and finding it difficult to understand what it means?

The common cause of the E9 error code in a Blomberg refrigerator can be a malfunction in the temperature control system, primarily controlled by the built-in thermostat. If the thermostat is faulty, replacing it becomes mandatory.

Before replacing the thermostat, check it carefully for signs of a fault. A faulty thermostat can lead to problems such as the fridge refusing to switch on or off or running continuously, causing the contents to freeze. Even after adjusting the temperature or cleaning it, if your fridge is unable to maintain a consistent temperature, the thermostat is likely to be the culprit.

Now the decision is yours: either start repairing the thermostat, using basic tools at hand if you are confident in your abilities, or contact professional refrigerator repair technicians.

How to replace a thermostat

If you choose the DIY route, replacing the thermostat is simple. Follow the following five steps.

Step 1. Unplug your refrigerator from the wall outlet for safety.

Step 2. Read the manual to find the thermostat. If the manual is missing, you can find the information you need on the official Blomberg website. In side-by-side refrigerators, the thermostat is usually located at the back, while in older top and bottom-loading models, it is located under the fridge.

Step 3. Remove the protective panel covering the thermostat by removing the screws or releasing the clips.

Step 4. Carefully remove the two wire connectors from the thermostat’s spade or pin terminals using pliers. When the evaporator is removed, release the clips or screws holding the thermostat in place.

Step 5. Connect the wires to the terminals on the new thermostat, secure the panel cover, and turn on the refrigerator. Check the thermostat on the temperature scale.

If your refrigerator is still unable to maintain a constant temperature for 24 hours even after replacing the thermostat, you may need to call in the help of professionals.
