What CC means on your Kenmore refrigerator (kenmore refrigerator cc error)
A kenmore refrigerator cc error is a verified code, taken directly from GE Appliances’ own official support pages, meaning the temperature control setting is incorrect on your GE-built Kenmore refrigerator (362/363/464-prefix). GE’s own guidance is simply to check the controls.

Symptoms
The signs below help confirm you are dealing with this condition rather than a different problem on your Kenmore refrigerator. You may notice one of them or several together, and they can appear gradually or suddenly after a power event, a wash or cook cycle, a spill, or recent installation or service.
- The display shows CC
- The set temperature looks unusual or conflicting
- Cooling otherwise seems to be working
- The indicator clears once settings are corrected
Common causes
Several different problems can produce these symptoms. Working through the most likely causes in order separates a quick owner-level check from a problem that needs trained service and the correct Kenmore parts.
- Incorrect or conflicting temperature control setting — the control panel setting needs correcting
Troubleshooting steps you can try
Work through these checks in order before calling for service. Stop wherever you are unsure, or where mains voltage, gas, a hot oven cavity, water, or a sealed component is involved, and hand the rest to a qualified technician.
- Check the fresh-food and freezer temperature settings against the owner’s manual defaults.
- Correct any setting that looks out of range.
- Confirm CC clears from the display.
- If CC persists after correcting the settings, further diagnosis is needed.
Parts a technician may replace
Depending on what the diagnosis shows, a technician may inspect, test, or replace the temperature control panel and settings menu. The correct part for your Kenmore refrigerator is matched from the model and serial number, and genuine OEM components are fitted through trusted parts suppliers rather than generic substitutes so performance, safety, and the appliance long working life are all protected. Confirming the failed part before ordering avoids replacing more than the problem actually requires.
When to call a technician
This is normally a DIY settings fix on this GE-built Kenmore refrigerator; a technician is only needed if CC persists after the controls are confirmed correct.
