What to do

Why this happens

Potential causes include an improperly closed or unlatched door, loose wire terminals in the door sense circuit, open wire terminals within the same circuit, or a defective door switch.

How to fix it

If it still shows the error with the door closed, the door switch likely needs replacing — a technician can do this in under an hour.
