KitchenAid Refrigerator (Beverage Center) CL / LO Error Code

Too cold inside: that is what CL and LO report on a KitchenAid beverage center, and the two displays share a single meaning. The manufacturer lists simple explanations to consider before any reset.

Possible everyday explanations

• Door: is it shut fully, or did it stay open for a long stretch?
• Restocking: a large batch of warm or room-temperature bottles and cans can drag the reading down, KitchenAid notes.
• Outage: following a loss of power, the unit takes a while before its figure stabilizes.

Where one of these fits, allow some time instead of assuming a fault.

Power cycle for a code that lingers

1. Interrupt power to the unit for one minute, either at its breaker or by unplugging it.
2. Restore power by flipping the breaker on or plugging the cord in.
3. Keep an eye on the display for a minute to see if CL or LO is back.
4. Make sure the beverage center runs as it should.

When nothing changes

KitchenAid’s article ends with a pointer to contact or schedule service, and the beverage center help carries another article, Doors Are Not Sealing Properly. Besides the checks above, no cause is published, so a specific part cannot be pinned down from this code.
