Dynamic Content with AMP: Reference data in a DE not used for sending

I am super new to the forum and new to AMP as well, so sorry if there's some imprecision in my question. :-)

I am trying to build some Dynamic Content for an email. I have 3 dynamic content blocks in total. The data for 2 of the blocks is contained in the same DE I will be using for the send out (A), and it works properly. I am having issues with the third block, which should use data located in another data extension (B - non-sendable). If I remove the third block (IF statement), then I do not get any error messages.

The logic is very simple and it's the same for all three blocks. If a = b, show content block x. If not, show content block y.

I know that B is NOT connected to the Main DE "Contacts" in Audience Builder. Also, "Hvilken_type_bolig" is not a boleean, while "Mode" and "Winner" are. Could that be the issue? Or is there a problem with my code?

Thank you and cheers :)

EDIT: The record I am trying to generate a Subscriber Preview with exists in all the above-mentioned DEs (Contacts, A, B) with the same SubscriberKey.

Error code:
