What OP (Freezer Display) means

OP in the freezer display of a Frigidaire Gallery or Professional French-door bottom-freezer refrigerator with an electronic display means the freezer sensor circuit reads as open. The same code appears on electronic side-by-side models, and older side-by-sides show a 2 in the freezer window instead. With no reading from the sensor, the control cannot run the freezer cooling in the usual way. You may see the OP on the freezer side, a freezer that runs too warm or too cold, or frost that builds up.

Common causes of OP (Freezer Display)

  • The freezer temperature sensor
  • The connector and wiring between the sensor and the control
  • The input on the board that reads that sensor
✓ One safe check you can try

1. Check that the freezer door closes and the gasket is clean. 2. Keep the doors closed as much as possible. 3. Move frozen food to another freezer if it begins to warm. 4. Do not remove panels or touch the sensor wiring.

! Why to stop there
  • The code points to the sensor circuit but not to the failed part.
  • We test the sensor, inspect the connector and check the control input.
  • We say so in plain words if an older unit is not worth the repair, and we write the price down first.
Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

OP (Freezer Display)OP (Freezer Display) questions
What does OP mean in the freezer display?

OP means the freezer sensor circuit reads open, so the control does not have a freezer temperature. Service is needed to find the broken connection.

Is OP the same as a 2 on an older refrigerator?

Yes, on older side-by-sides a 2 in the freezer window reports the same open sensor. The numbers and letters differ by model, but the circuit problem is the same.

Will the freezer keep cooling?

It may, but the control is working without a reading. Watch the food closely and move it if it thaws. We check the circuit and quote the price in writing before replacing anything.
