No part is needed; a key sequence from the manual, or simply waiting, ends it. ### Usually leads to No repair Let the 10-minute run-on finish if you want the last of the cooking vapors cleared. ### 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 Viking Viking range hoods that have grown loud, weak or dark are looked at in place, from the lamps and switches to the blower overhead. ### Source Viking RVL Pureline Pro ceiling hood MVCEH636/648 manual Viking RVL Pureline Pro ceiling hood MVCEH636 and MVCEH648, operated from its remote control. ## Before you book, in this order.

Let the 10-minute run-on finish if you want the last of the cooking vapors cleared. ### Why does my Viking ceiling hood keep running after I switch it off? A single press of off starts the 10-minute run-on. Press off twice if you want the fan to stop straight away. ### Why did my Viking ceiling hood stop on its own during a long cook? Auto-Stop switches the fan off after 3 hours with no change at the controls. Press the fan button again to restart it. ### Why did the lights on my Viking ceiling hood dim when I turned the fan off? Run-on switches the lighting to ambient mode, and the lights stay in ambient mode after the fan stops. --- **[Read on the site: Viking RVL ceiling hood: first white light flashing](https://rangehooderepair.center/error-codes/viking-first-white-led-flashing/)** **[Book a visit with RangeHoodeRepair.center](https://rangehooderepair.center/schedule/)**
