Viking Lighting Fault Error Code — Wine Cooler Fault Fix

Error Code Explained

What Does the Viking Lighting Fault Error Code Mean?

Viking wine coolers use LED interior lighting to illuminate the wine storage shelves when the door is opened. A lighting failure does not affect cooling performance but reduces visibility when selecting wine. The cause is typically a failed LED module or a failed door switch that activates the light.
