Quick answer
Refrigerator compressor microprocessor pin stuck in off position.
Model compatibility: Sub-Zero reused visible code strings across series and model years, so 95 1 00 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Built-In BI SWS #4380000: Refrigerator compressor microprocessor pin stuck in off position.
Signs
Symptoms you may notice
The appliance may log the code even when cooling appears normal.
A specific zone or controlled function may not behave as expected.
The service indicator may remain active until the underlying condition is corrected.
The exact symptom depends on the Sub-Zero series and the device identified by the code.
Before you call
Safe checks you can make
These are simple, non-hazardous checks only. If anything is unclear, stop and contact a technician.
Record the exact code, model number, and which zone is affected before clearing anything.
Confirm doors and drawers close completely and note any related temperature or function changes.
Do not replace parts based only on the code because the same code can have different meanings by series.
If the code returns, have the appliance diagnosed using the correct model-specific service information.
Important safety warning. Do not remove electrical covers, test energized circuits, open the sealed refrigeration system, or replace a control board based only on the displayed code.
Please avoid
What not to attempt
Electrical measurements
Control-board access
Refrigerant or sealed-system work
Internal component testing

When to call a technician
Schedule service if the code returns after a basic reset or owner-safe check, if temperatures are moving outside the normal range, if water is leaking, or if the appliance is no longer performing its primary function. A recurring diagnostic code usually means the control is seeing the same condition again. Professional diagnosis can prevent unnecessary part replacement and can identify wiring, control, sensor, airflow, water-system, defrost, or sealed-system causes that look similar from the display alone.
Seeing this code on your Sub-Zero appliance?
Book a specialist visit for a clear estimate and approval before any repair. Independent service — not affiliated with, authorized by, sponsored by, or endorsed by Sub-Zero.
Some Sub-Zero models allow a stored code to be cleared after the underlying problem is corrected. Clearing the display does **not** repair the cause. If the code comes back, use the series-specific meaning above and arrange diagnosis.
No. A diagnostic code identifies a condition detected by the control system. Wiring, connectors, airflow, power supply, control electronics, or another component can sometimes create the same code.
That depends on temperature and the affected function. If the refrigerator is above a safe food-storage temperature, the freezer is thawing, water is leaking, or an electrical issue is suspected, stop relying on the appliance and schedule service promptly.
Sub-Zero has used several generations of electronic controls. The same visible code can be assigned differently by series, zone, or software generation, which is why model applicability is included on this page.
