Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Start here — it costs nothing and rules out the easy cause: check whether the error only appears during a specific cycle or setting, which narrows down the fault. Beyond that, a code that returns after a power cycle means an internal sensor or board is reporting a real fault, and clearing codes without fixing the cause just masks it.
