# GE Profile refrigerator showing CC

CC on a GE Profile means the fresh food side is off its target temperature.

## What CC actually means.

CC on a GE Profile means the fresh food side is off its target temperature. GE points you to the temperature controls first, because a setting knocked out of place gives the same result as a cooling problem.

What to do when CC shows on the refrigerator

### Kind of code Service indication

A light or a message asking for a visit. It says that something wants attention, not what, so the visit starts with a diagnosis.

### Usually leads to Diagnostic visit

The visit that decides what the repair actually is, before any part is ordered.

### Shows up as Refrigerator Not Cooling

The compartment is warm but the appliance still has power and still makes noise.

### Make GE Profile

GE Appliances' step-up line above GE: freestanding and counter-depth French door and side-by-side refrigerators.

### Source GE Appliances (maker of GE Profile) support: refrigerator codes

GE Profile is a GE Appliances line, and GE Appliances publishes a single refrigerator code list for its brands, written for models with electronic dispenser controls. Not every GE Profile refrigerator uses it.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from GE Profile's own guidance for CC on its refrigerators. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Look at the fresh food setting and return it to the temperature you normally use.

02

Leave a thermometer on a middle shelf for a few hours and compare it with the setting.

03

If the setting is right and the reading still drifts, book a visit.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [diagnostic visit](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/services/diagnostic-visit/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

CC does not point at a particular part. Replacing a control board because of CC alone skips the simple checks.

## What you may notice with it.

The refrigerator problems CC tends to arrive with. Answer these at the refrigerator before anyone is booked.

## Questions about CC.

### Can I clear CC myself?

Look at the fresh food setting and return it to the temperature you normally use. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why does my GE Profile show CC after cleaning?

A setting knocked out of place gives the same result as a cooling problem. Return it to your usual temperature and check with a thermometer.

### Does GE Profile CC point to a specific part?

No, CC reports a temperature that is off target without naming a cause. A GE Profile whose setting is correct but whose thermometer reading keeps wandering is the one that needs a technician.
