What Call for Service
actually means.
On KitchenAid built-in refrigerators a Call for Service light that blinks means the control wants a technician to look at it. KitchenAid's only step before a visit is a longer power reset than on its freestanding models: five minutes at the breaker. The light itself does not say which part is involved.

What to do when Call for Service shows on the refrigeratorKind of codeService 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.

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

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from KitchenAid's own guidance for Call for Service on its refrigerators. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn the refrigerator off at the circuit breaker and leave it off for a full five minutes.
Turn the breaker back on and watch the panel for a couple of minutes.
Check that both compartments are cooling normally over the next few hours.
If the light comes back, book a visit and say it is the Call for Service light on a built-in model.
What not to do
It is not a filter or maintenance reminder that clears with a button. If it returns after the reset, it needs a visit.
