All Samsung RS30 and RSG307 models side-by-side refrigerator error codes

Codes marked "Reset only" or "Service" have no separate page because the manufacturer publishes no owner fix beyond a reset or a service call.

Code	Meaning	System	Owner action
1 E	Freezer temperature sensor failure. The meter should measure about 5,600 ohms if the sensor temperature is 72 degrees (room temperature), 13,290 ohms at 32 degrees and 29,000 ohms at 0 degrees. The meter should read the same resistance as for the temperature sensor.	Heating	Service
2 E	Refrigerator compartment temperature sensor failure. The meter should measure about 5,600 ohms if the sensor temperature is 72 degrees (room temperature), 13,290 ohms at 32 degrees and 11,700 ohms at 37 degrees. The meter should read the same resistance as for the temperature sensor.	Heating	Service
4 E	Freezer evaporator defrost temperature sensor failure. The meter should measure about 5,600 ohms if the sensor temperature is 72 degrees (room temperature), 13,290 ohms at 32 degrees and 29,000 ohms at 0 degrees. The meter should read the same resistance as for the temperature sensor.	Heating	Service
5 E	Refrigerator evaporator defrost temperature sensor failure. The meter should measure about 5,600 ohms if the sensor temperature is 72 degrees (room temperature) and 13,290 ohms at 32 degrees. The meter should read the same resistance as for the temperature sensor.	Heating	Service
6 E	Ambient temperature sensor failure. The meter should measure about 5,600 ohms if the sensor temperature is 72 degrees (room temperature). The meter should read the same resistance as for the temperature sensor.	Heating	Service
8 E	Ice maker temperature sensor failure. The meter should measure about 5,600 ohms if the sensor temperature is 72 degrees (room temperature), 13,290 ohms at 32 degrees and 29,000 ohms at 0 degrees.	Heating	Owner checks
13 E	Humidity sensor failure. The meter should measure around 50 ohms of resistance.	Sensors	Service
