Chef Connect hoods store the fan and light levels they jump to when a paired appliance signals them. Holding the Lo pad for 3 seconds on the PVX7300 opens that setup, and all backlights blink on and off until you save and exit by holding Off for 3 seconds. On the PVW wall hoods with Clean Air Sensors, the same mode is entered and left with 10-second holds of Light and Power. GE Profile range hood display · also shown as Default Settings Mode What to do when All backlights blink on and off together shows on the range hood ### Kind of code Mode, not a failure The hood is doing something it was told to do, not wearing out: a delay-off timer that keeps the blower running for some minutes after the burners go off, a heat sentry that starts the fan by itself when it senses a hot pan, a Sabbath setting that locks the keys and dims the lights, or a link to the cooking surface that sets the speed on its own. No part is needed; a key sequence from the manual, or simply waiting, ends it. ### Usually leads to No repair Set the fan and light to the levels you want the hood to use when a paired appliance turns it on. ### Shows up as Reading a Range Hood Error Code or Blinking Light A range hood error code may appear as letters and numbers on a display, a light that blinks in a pattern, a filter reminder that will not clear, or a beep with the fan refusing to start. ### Make GE Profile GE Profile hoods and downdraft vents get fixed in your kitchen, starting with a check of the breaker and the hood's own switch. ### Source GE / GE Profile range hoods owner's manual 49-2001095 (JVX, PVX7300, PVX7360) GE Profile PVX7300/PVX7360 (manual 49-2001095: enter with Lo 3 s, exit with Off 3 s) and PVW1030/PVW1036 (manual 49-7000239: enter with Light 10 s, exit with Power 10 s). ## Before you book, in this order. Each step comes from GE Profile's own guidance for All backlights blink on and off together on its range hoods. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit. 01 Set the fan and light to the levels you want the hood to use when a paired appliance turns it on. 02 Save and exit: hold Off for 3 seconds on the PVX7300, or Power for 10 seconds on the PVW wall hoods. 03 Check that the blinking stops and the fan and light return to what they were doing before. 04 If the blinking will not stop after the exit hold, switch the breaker off for 30 seconds; if it returns, book a visit. ### Cleared? The code is gone and the blower pulls steam up on every speed again without a new part. If it returns this week, or the filter reminder keeps coming back right after a cleaning, mention it in the booking. ### What not to do This blinking does not come from a failed keypad or a power problem. It is also different from pairing, where the lights either chase in order or a single Chef Connect light blinks. ## What you may notice with it.

Set the fan and light to the levels you want the hood to use when a paired appliance turns it on. ### Why are all the buttons on my GE Profile hood blinking? Someone held a pad long enough to open Default Settings Mode. Choose your sync levels and exit with the long hold your model uses, and the blinking stops. ### Can I use my GE Profile hood normally while the buttons blink? Not really: the fan and light buttons are setting the saved defaults while the mode is open. Exit first, then run the hood as usual. ### What do the default sync settings on a GE Profile hood control? They set the fan and light levels the hood switches to when a paired Chef Connect appliance tells it to turn on. Out of the box the light is brightest and the fan is off. --- **[Read on the site: GE Profile hood backlights all blinking together without stopping](https://rangehooderepair.center/error-codes/ge-profile-all-backlights-blinking/)** **[Book a visit with RangeHoodeRepair.center](https://rangehooderepair.center/schedule/)**
