Deepfreeze® Rack (some models) B Deepfreeze® rack holds ice cube trays and provides additional storage. • Remove Deepfreeze® rack by lifting rack and pushing front hooks in to release hooks from shelf. Pull front of rack down. Push hooks in to release back hooks from shelf. Slide rack off shelf. • A.
User Operation Tall Package Retainer • (some models) Tall package retainer keeps tall items secure. Retainer fits in any door bucket or door shelf. Select cubed or crushed mode by sliding lever on dispenser panel. Dispense ice by pressing wide mouthed container against ice dispenser bar. Important Reduce spraying of crushed ice by holding wide mouthed container directly under ice chute and as high as possible in dispenser area.
User Operation Taste and Odor Observe the following to minimize taste and odor difficulties: • Wrap foods in tightly sealed containers or moisture proof bags. • Install water filter, part #R0185011 on water line. • Contact local water treatment company for specialized help if difficulties persist. Complete the following steps if odor was not eliminated. 4. Complete steps 1–2. 5. Place garden fresh crispers on top shelf of Fresh Food section.
User Operation Glass Shelves Lower Fresh Food Section (Some models) • Remove light bulb cover by removing screw. Replace bulb with 40-watt tubular bulb. Caution • Replace light bulb cover by placing cover over light bulb. Insert and tighten screw. To avoid personal injury or property damage, handle tempered glass shelves carefully. Shelves may break suddenly if nicked, scratched, or exposed to sudden temperature change.
User Operation Normal Operating Sounds Before Calling For Service This new refrigerator may be replacing a differently designed, less efficient or smaller refrigerator. Today’s refrigerators have new features and are more energy efficient. As a result, certain sounds may be unfamiliar. These sounds are normal and will soon become familiar. These sounds also indicate refrigerator is operating and performing as designed. Refrigerator does not operate. • Confirm Deepfreeze® control is on.

Auger motor capacitor does not have identified terminals and can be wired without regard to polarity. To avoid electrical shock which can cause severe personal injury or death, discharge capacitor through a resistor before handling. 1. 2. 3. 4.
Component Testing Component Compressor Description When compressor electrical circuit is energized, the start winding current causes relay to heat. After an amount of starting time, the start winding circuit turns off. The relay will switch off the start winding circuit even though compressor has not started (for example, when attempting to restart after momentary power interruption). Test Procedures Resistance test 1. Disconnect power to unit. 2.
Component Testing Component Condenser Description Condenser is a tube and wire construction and is located in compressor compartment. Test Procedures Leaks in condenser can usually be detected by using an electronic leak detector or soap solution. Look for signs of compressor oil when checking for leaks. A certain amount of compressor oil is circulated with refrigerant. Condenser is on the high pressure discharge side of compressor.
Component Testing Component Control, freezer temperature (Non-electronic units) Drier Description Freezer temperature control is a capillary tube operating a single pole, single throw switch. Test Procedures Check for proper calibration with thermocouple capillary in air supply well buy recording cut-in and cut-out temperatures in middle setting. See tech sheet for model being serviced for expected temperatures.
Component Testing Component Heater, cavity Description Applied to back of ice and water cavity to help prevent condensation from forming on face of cavity. Wired in series with hot side of line through auger interlock switch. Heater, evaporator Activated when defrost thermostat or (defrost) adaptive defrost control completes the circuit through the heater. Ice Maker Motor, auger See “Ice Maker” section for service information. Located behind ice bucket. Drives helix auger and cube crusher.
Component Testing Component Description Switch, keyboard Semiconductor switch for control panel keyboard.
Component Testing Component Thermostat Description Thermostat is in a series circuit with defrost terminators, defrost heater, and evaporator fan motor. Circuit is complete if evaporator fan motor operates when cold. Test Procedures Test continuity across terminals. With power off and evaporator coil below freezing, thermostat should check continuous when checked with ohmmeter. See “Heater, evaporator (defrost)” section for additional tests.

Ice Maker Operation When the thermostat has sensed temperature 17° ± 3° F. (-8.3° ± 1.5° C.), the thermostat closes. The current now has a path through the thermostat to the motor (see wiring diagram). The motor is linked with the drive gear. From the module, there are copper contacts that ride on copper strips on backside of drive gear. As the drive gear rotates, these contacts will make or break a circuit (tract) to the copper strips to operate the ice maker.
Ice Maker Shunt Connection A wire shunt made from an insulated piece of 14gauge wire with the ends stripped back about 5/8 inch (1.6 cm). MODULE OHMMETER CHECKS (NO POWER TO ICE MAKER & EJECTOR BLADES IN END OF CYCLE POSITION) TEST POINTS COMPONENT MODULE POSITION OHMS L-H MOLD HEATER ATTACHED TO SUPPORT 264 L-M MOTOR SEPARATED FROM HEATER 16,100 Module, Motor, and Support Assembly Insert phillips driver in access ports in module. Loosen both screws. Disconnect shut-off arm.
Ice Maker Fill Cup Remove module and support assembly. Remove ejector blades and shut-off arm. Pull fill cup from mold. Rotating blades or drive gear will ruin main assembly. There are several switches which will jam if manually turned counterclockwise and gears will be destroyed if turned clockwise. To advance the ice maker into the cycle, use a jumper to bridge H to R and unless the motor is defective, it will run. (The shut-off arm must be in the on position.
Ice Maker Water Fill Adjustment Turning the water level adjustment screw will move the contact in its relationship with the contact ring segment. This causes the contact to vary time the water valve is energized, since the contact ring is tapered at the end of the fill time. Turning screw clockwise decreases fill; counterclockwise increase fill amount. 1/2 turn equals 20 cc or 1.
Ice Maker Servicing Wire Harness Wiring Harness To remove wiring harness, depress retaining tab and pull plug free. A one-time thermal fuse micro device 170° F is incorporated into the ice maker wiring harness to protect the plastic liner from melting if the ice maker should overheat. The thermal fuse is spliced into the red wire of the ice maker harness. The thermal fuse is a 170° F (78° C) nonresettable fuse. A "No Ice" complaint could be caused by excessive heat.
