2) Defrost Control

A thermistor (semiconductor) is used for theDefrostControlSensor.The resistancevariesdependingon the suction line temperatures.TheThermistor detects thetemperatureof theEvaporator outlet to start theDefrostTimer.Noadjustment isrequired. If necessary, check for resistancebetweenThermistor leads, and visuallychecktheThermistormounting,locatedonthesuctionlinenexttotheEvaporatoroutlet.

ChecktheThermistorforresistancebyusingthefollowingprocedures.

(i) DisconnecttheConnectorK1ontheboard.

(ii) RemovetheThermistor.See“V.13.THERMISTOR”.

[f] CHECKING THE CONTROL BOARD

Before replacingaControlBoard that doesnot showa visible defect and that yoususpectisbad,alwaysconductthefollowingcheckprocedure.Thisprocedurewillhelpyouverifyyourdiagnosis.

1)Check theDipSwitchsettings toassure that#3,4,7,8,9,&10are in the factorydefaultposition.Switches1,2,5,&6arecleaningadjustmentsandthesettingsareflexible.

2)MovetheControlSwitch to the“ICE”positionandcheck forpropercontrolvoltage.If thePowerOKLEDison, thecontrolvoltage isgood. If theLEDisoff,checktheControlTransformercircuit.Ifnovoltageispresent,checkthepowersupplycircuit.

3)Toperforma relay sequence test, turnon thepower switchwhile pressing the"OUTPUTTEST"button.Thecorrectlightingsequenceshouldbe5,6,7,8,4.Somecomponents (e.g., the compressor)will cycle during test.EachLEDcomeson for5seconds.LED5 isonwhileLED6 ison.Followingtheoutput testsequence, theicemakerwillresumenormaloperationbeginningwiththeinitialcycle.

Ifthecomponentscycleinadifferentsequence,theControlBoardisbadandshouldbe replaced.See “V. 14. [d]CONTROLBOARD”. If the components cycled in thecorrectsequence,proceedtothenextstep.

4)Move theControlSwitch to the “ICE”position.When theunit enters the freezecycle, allow it torunfor5minutesafterthethermistortemperaturereaches 2°C in the f reeze cyc le and thendisconnect the3-pinFloatSwitchConnector(graywire).TheConnector isnotshown,but it islocated in thegeneralareaof thecircle inFig.2.AftertheFloatSwitchisdisconnected,thedefrostcycle should start. If thedefrost cycledoesnotstart,replacetheboard.See“V.14.[d]CONTROLBOARD”.

Note: Theboardneveracceptsthefreezecompletionsignal (openFloatSwitch)within the first5minutesafter the thermistor temperaturereaches2°Cinthefreezecycle.
