This is similar to the 22 error but represents a different fault condition within the relay or compressor circuit. The compressor relay controls power delivery to the compressor — when it fails the compressor cannot run and the refrigerator stops cooling completely. There are no user steps to resolve this error and the unit requires a professional repair service.
