GE Refrigerator PF Error Code

Content status: Verified

Error code PF
Appliance Refrigerator
Quick answer

PF on a GE refrigerator means power to the refrigerator was interrupted.

Model compatibility: GE reuses codes across series and model years, so PF may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

PF means power to the refrigerator was interrupted.

PF on a GE refrigerator display reports that the power to the refrigerator has been interrupted. It is a power event, and GE’s older guide says PF is not a mechanical malfunction.

What the older operations guide adds

In guide 49-6896, a flashing PF means electricity was interrupted for more than 2 seconds. The freezer and refrigerator compartments should be checked after that. Pushing the reset key turns the PF light off, so the system can look for any other malfunctions.

Resetting a code

For codes on the dispenser control panel, GE says disconnecting power for a minute or two can reset the panel. Some cases still need service.

Codes to compare

If food is a worry, read about FF. For a temperature problem, see CC.
