Samsung refrigerator error 22C – Refrigerator temperature too high

Is your Samsung refrigerator not cooling properly? The 22C error means the internal temperature is too high, which can cause food to spoil quickly.
Common causes:
- Blocked air vents
If food is blocking the air vents, cold air cannot circulate properly.
- Faulty temperature sensor
A defective sensor may send incorrect temperature readings to the control board.
- Dirty condenser coils
Dust and debris on the condenser coils can reduce cooling efficiency.
- Malfunctioning evaporator fan
If the evaporator fan fails, it won’t distribute cold air evenly.
How to fix it:
- Check for blocked air vents
Ensure food is not blocking airflow inside the fridge.
- Test the temperature sensor
Use a multimeter to check for continuity. Replace if faulty.
- Clean the condenser coils
Vacuum and wipe down the coils to improve cooling.
- Inspect the evaporator fan
If it’s not running, consider replacing it.
Pro tip
Keep your fridge well-organized to allow for even air circulation and maintain proper cooling.
