Confirm the model number begins 795; Er gF is read from the Sears chart for that series. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### What should I check first when my Kenmore shows Er gF? Sears points first at water pressure and flow, so make sure the household valve is fully open and the supply line is not kinked. A water filter that was changed recently should also be pushed fully into place. ### When does Er gF on a Kenmore need a technician? When pressure at the kitchen tap is normal, the supply is open and the code still stays. At that point the flow meter itself is the part left on the Sears list. --- **[Read on the site: Kenmore refrigerator showing Er gF](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/error-codes/kenmore-er-gf/)** **[Book a visit with RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/schedule/)**
