Display / main-board communication fault

Power the refrigerator off at the outlet for a full minute, then restore and watch the display
Inspect the wiring from the dispenser/display through the door or top hinge for a flex break
Reseat the connectors at both the display board and the main board
Dry and inspect any moisture-corroded pins in the door wiring channel
Substitute the display board, then the main board, to isolate the dead half if reseating fails
Pro Diagnostic Tip
For dispenser models the harness bends at the door hinge on every open, so Ed on an older Haier is most often a cracked conductor there — flex-test the hinge loop before ordering a board.
