Hotpoint Refrigerator CS Error Code

The condenser temperature sensor is faulty, which can lead to condenser fan issues or overheating.

Common causes

  • Failed condenser thermistor
  • Wiring issue
  • Connector corrosion

How to fix it

  1. Unplug and check the condenser thermistor connector (often near the compressor).
  2. Clean any debris off the sensor.
  3. Test resistance: should be similar to other thermistors; replace if out of spec.
⚠ When to call a pro: If replacement does not fix, the control board may need service.
