What Flashing F
actually means.
An F flashing on an Amana display means the control has detected something that needs attention. Amana's instructions stop at a one-minute power reset and a service call if it returns. Amana does not say which part the F relates to.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Amana's own guidance for Flashing F on its refrigerators. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Take note of exactly what the display shows, including any number next to the F.
Switch off the breaker or unplug the refrigerator for one minute, then switch it back on.
Check that cooling is on and watch the display for a minute.
If the F comes back, schedule service and describe what you saw.
