Note the code and the model number. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Is my Miele freezer about to stop working because of F114? F114 names the freezer section's evaporator sensor as defective. Miele does not frame it as a cooling failure, but the sensor cannot be fixed by the owner. Checking the actual freezer temperature tells you how much time you have. ### Can a reset clear F114 on a Miele? Miele describes it as a technical issue the owner cannot remedy, so a repair appointment is the route. Note the code and model number first. The fresh food sensor and the general F0 to F5 codes are different messages. --- **[Read on the site: Miele refrigerator showing F114 | RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/error-codes/miele-f114/)** **[Book a visit with RefrigeratorRepair.center](https://refrigeratorrepair.center/schedule/)**
