What E6 means

The shorted reading for Thermistor 2 is E6 on U-Line 1000 Series and 2000 Series wine coolers. The second temperature sensor reads as a short, so the control cannot rely on it. The display shows E6. Some older listings gave E6 another meaning, but on these series it is a sensor reading, and the open reading for this sensor is E2.

Common causes of E6

  • Thermistor 2 is shorted
  • The sensor lead is pinched or damaged
  • The connector is corroded
✓ One safe check you can try

1. Remove power for a minute and restore it. 2. Compare the display with a separate thermometer. 3. Wipe away moisture behind the cooler. 4. Leave covers on. 5. Call us if E6 returns.

! Why to stop there
  • Shorts hide inside wiring and sensors
  • We test before replacing, so you pay for the right part
  • Our work is quoted first in writing and carries a 30-day warranty
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.

E6E6 questions
What is E6 reporting on my cooler?

The second temperature sensor circuit reads as a short, so Thermistor 2 is shorted.

Where does E2 fit beside E6?

E2 reports Thermistor 2 open, and E6 reports it shorted. Each describes a different condition of the same sensor.

Can I run the cooler with E6?

Keep a thermometer inside. If the temperature holds, you have time to book. If it climbs, move your wine and call.
