Error codeE0
ApplianceRefrigerator
E0 means door 1 is open
Meaning: door 1, the upper door, is open.
Models covered: the UHRE, UHWC, UHBD, UHRI and UHRF lines in the 515 to 524 range (fridges, wine units, beverage units), and clear ice machines UHCP115, UACP115 and URCC115.
Generation: current.
Display and sound
All errors are kept in memory. The door error alone is put on the display, and an audible signal goes with it. Paging through the error log shows what was stored, oldest event first as it occurred.
Owner check
Push the upper door fully shut. On two-door units the lower door reports separately as E9, which makes E0 the top-door code. If E0 still appears with the door closed, service is the next step.
Other entries in the log
E1 and E2 are temperature sensor entries in that log.
For U-Line refrigerator repair in San Francisco and the Bay Area, call (415) 329-7078. Keep the model number handy, say that E0 persists, and mention whether the door shuts flush.
Model compatibility: U-Line reuses codes across series and model years, so E0 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
