E Od summary
Fault: the Wi-Fi modem has failed
Shown by: the 795 bottom-freezer line, both Kenmore and Kenmore Elite
Parts in play: the modem, plus the display control board behind it
Sequence the manual gives
Start by unplugging the refrigerator. Next, inspect the wire connection joining the modem to the display control board, pushing back any wire that has come loose. Connections that look fine call for a new Wi-Fi modem. If the code keeps coming back after that, the display control board is replaced as well.

Er CO: a communication error between the main board and the display board.
Model compatibility: Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so E Od may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
