Our Kitchen Aid fridge began having issues yesterday. My mother in law tripped a ground fault circuit that is before the fridge while I was at work. I came home and reset the circuit and the fridge started back up. When it started back up, the interior lights would not work. They are all LED so its not a bulb socket issue. Also the Ice dispenser did not work, the water dispenser didn't work and the controls on the door were all lit up and would respond to touch but then they would quickly default back within 3 seconds.
I couldnt make any changed on any settings. I unplugged the fridge and gave it a bit and plugged it back in. It didnt change anything.
I pulled out the Ice bin and it was jammed up with a hunk of ice. I remember earlier that morning, i tried to get ice out and the motor spun but it couldnt get the ice out and it seemed jammed. I put everything back together and nothing changed.
I noticed this morning that everything on the control panel is lit up. Normally they turn off when its not being used.
I cant find the model number for the fridge. There is nothing on the doors or inside the fridge. It is similar and could be KRMF706ESS. It looks the same as that one.
1. Where can I find the tag that has the actual model number? 2. How do I reset the computer? 3. How can i check the error codes? 4. Any other ideas of things I can do/try.
Thank you all for your assistance.

Hi - I'm having the exact same issue. Fridge was working fine. Opened the door and no LED lights on for any of the doors. Front control panel lights up, but no water or ice. Fridge and freezer appear to be cooling properly. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Bobby

Hi Jamel, if you figured out the part that fixes the drawer display plug problem please post the details. I am also having the same problem. The alarm stopped after unplugging the drawer connector and powering on/off the fridge. Now I am wondering what part is faulty.

Unpluging the drawer worked for me too. Hoping you have figured it out. Dont want to go replacing a $300 part if I dont have to.

Thanks for the info! That said.. if the cause is a spill of liquid on the tray.. then i would consider this a pretty major design flaw..
