--- title: "Asko refrigerator showing E8 | RefrigeratorRepair.center" description: "What E8 means on Asko refrigerators, what to check before booking, and when it is not a failure at all." url: "https://refrigeratorrepair.center/error-codes/asko-e8/" --- # Asko refrigerator showing E8 E8 is the reverse direction of E0 on the RBR276 models: the user-interface electronics cannot reach the power board. ## What E8 actually means. E8 is the reverse direction of E0 on the RBR276 models: the user-interface electronics cannot reach the power board. The unit switches to safe mode and maintains a sensible temperature without your input until the link is repaired. ASKO refrigerator display What to do when E8 shows on the refrigerator ### Kind of code Communication Two boards that stopped hearing each other — the main control and the display, or the inverter. A harness is checked before a board. ### Usually leads to Controls and sensors A refrigerator cools to what it believes the temperature is, and a sensor reading wrong is obeyed perfectly. ### Shows up as Refrigerator Control Panel Not Responding Buttons do nothing, the display is blank or frozen, or settings will not hold. ### Make ASKO Scandinavian integrated refrigeration, mostly behind furniture panels. ### Source Asko Instructions for use, models RBR276SND1 / RBR2764DND1 / RBR2767DND1 / RBR276DND1, troubleshooting table (PDF on the Gorenje Group document server) Asko RBR276SND1, RBR2764DND1, RBR2767DND1 and RBR276DND1 (one Instructions for use covers all four). E8 is not listed in the R31442I manual. ## Before you book, in this order. Each step comes from ASKO's own guidance for E8 on its refrigerators. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit. 01 Keep the doors shut and let safe mode handle the cooling. 02 Have the type and serial details from the rating plate inside the cabinet ready before you arrange anything. 03 Book a visit; E8 is on Asko's list of codes that need a technician. ### Still there? It usually turns into [controls and sensors](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/services/controls-and-sensors/). Book with the code and the model number. ### What not to do Do not treat E8 as a temperature warning. It speaks only about the link between two boards, and the compartments are still being held cold. ## What you may notice with it. The refrigerator problem E8 tends to arrive with.

Keep the doors shut and let safe mode handle the cooling. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### How is E8 different from E0 on an Asko RBR276? Both are about the link between the power board and the display electronics, but in opposite directions. E8 means the display side cannot get through to the power board, while E0 means the power board cannot reach the display. ### Is E8 on my Asko a sign the food is getting warm? No, E8 describes a communication problem between two boards, not a temperature. Safe mode keeps the compartments cold until a technician restores the link. --- **[Read on the site: Asko refrigerator showing E8 | RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/error-codes/asko-e8/)** **[Book a visit with RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/schedule/)**
