Haier Refrigerator E1 / E2 / E6 / E9 Error Code

Fan error on Haier refrigerators.

E1 / E2 / E6 / E9

May need a pro

Haier puts E1, E2, E6 and E9 under fan errors. Fridges with forced-air cooling rely on a fan behind the freezer panel to push cold air around, and many also have a condenser fan near the compressor. If a fan stalls, one or both compartments warm up even though the compressor runs.

Compatible models

Haier doesn't say which of its fridges use these four fan codes. Your owner's manual is the place to confirm them.

Also shown as

These four come from the fan row of Haier's international error code list. Haier doesn't publish which fan each number refers to, and US models may differ.

Difficulty

Try the basic checks, but the usual fix is a technician's job.

Safety first: unplug the refrigerator (or switch off its breaker) before touching filters, hoses or panels. If you smell burning or gas, or see water near the outlet, stop and call a professional.

How to fix Haier E1 / E2 / E6 / E9

Reset the power
Unplug the fridge or flip its breaker off for a few minutes and then turn it back on.
Listen at the freezer vents
After it has run for a few minutes with the doors shut, open the freezer and listen for airflow at the back vents. Ticking or scraping often means frost has reached the fan blade.
Clear dust from the back
With the fridge unplugged, vacuum the lower back of the cabinet and the front kick plate grille so the condenser fan and coils aren't choked with lint.

When to call a technician

A fan code that survives a reset needs a technician to test the fan motor, its wiring and, if the blade was iced, the defrost system.
