What P1
actually means.
P1 reports a proximity sensor error. The proximity sensor lets the display and lights react when someone comes near. ASKO treats it as the one error an owner may choose to stop displaying, since the cabinet works without it.

What to do when P1 shows on the wine coolerKind of codeControl board and display
The electronics that read the sensors and switch the cooling, the fans and the lights have reported a problem with themselves or lost touch with the display. A loose ribbon cable, moisture that reached the touch strip or a brief power surge is checked before a board is condemned. Boards and displays are usually specific to one model, so the number on the label matters here more than anywhere.

A wine cooler error code appears as letters and digits on the display, a flashing temperature, dashes where a number should be or a blinking symbol, sometimes with an alarm tone and sometimes while the cabinet stays perfectly cool.
