B. Service Diagnosis WARNING • The appliance should be diagnosed and repaired only by qualified service personnel to reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or fire. • Risk of electric shock. Use extreme caution and exercise safe electrical practices. • Moving parts (e.g., fan blade) can crush and cut. Keep hands clear. • CHOKING HAZARD: Ensure all components, fasteners, and thumbscrews are securely in place after the appliance is serviced.
2. Diagnostic Procedure This diagnostic procedure is a sequence check that allows you to diagnose the electrical system and components. Before proceeding, check for correct installation, proper voltage per appliance nameplate, and adequate water pressure (10 PSIG to 113 PSIG). Check that both the 24VAC circuit fuse and the 115VAC GM fuse are good. Note: • When checking high voltage (115VAC), always choose a neutral (W) wire to establish a good neutral connection.
6) Startup – CB "POWER OK" LED is on. Plug the icemaker back into the electrical outlet, then move the power switch to the "ON" position. Move the control switch to the "ICE" position. CB "POWER OK" LED and BC green LED turn on. Diagnosis CB "POWER OK" LED: If CB "POWER OK" LED is off, check for proper supply voltage (115VAC) input to CT. If 115VAC is not present, check the power switch and breaker. Next, check for proper 24VAC output voltage from CT. Check CB K8 #1 (W/R) to #2 (LBU) for 24VAC.
8) Ice Purge Cycle – "GM" LED is on. 30‑sec. GM delay timer terminates, GM, EH, and CCR energize. Once CCR energizes, 5VDC circuit closes through CCR terminal #3 (W/O) and terminal #5 (W/O) and CB K9 #5 (W/O) and K9 #6 (W/O). After 5VDC circuit closes, 5-min. ice purge timer starts. To bypass the 5-min. Ice Purge Cycle, press the "SERVICE" button on CB after the "GM" LED turns on. WARNING! Risk of electric shock. Care should be taken not to touch live terminals.
Condensing Unit Diagnosis: Confirm that CLPS closes. Once CLPS closes, MC energizes, energizing Comp and FMR. If not, check condensing unit 208-230VAC power supply, breakers, disconnects. Next, confirm 115VAC from CLPS BK wire to neutral (W). If 115VAC is not present, check wiring connections and power supply. CLPS: When PDS is energized, CLPS closes when refrigeration circuit low-side pressure reaches 29 PSIG. If CLPS is open, check that refrigeration circuit low-side pressure has reached 29 PSIG.
10) Refill Cycle – "GM", "COMP", and "WTRIN" LEDs are on. LFS opens. WV energizes and FT starts. GM, CCR, EH, PDS, MC, Comp, and FMR continue. LFS closes. Nothing happens at this time. Reservoir continues to fill until UFS closes. When UFS closes, WV de-energizes, FT terminates, and FZT starts. If UFS remains open longer than 90 sec. after LFS opens, FT exceeded and CB sounds a 1-beep alarm. WV remains energized until UFS closes. Alarm resets automatically when UFS closes.
11) Drain Cycle a) 1-in-1 Drain Cycle: DV energizes once every hour when the 1-in-1 drain cycle is activated (S1 dip switch 4 in the "OFF" position (factory default position)). GM and PDS continue. DV energizes for 2 sec. every hour. This setting is recommended for optimum icemaker performance. The 1‑in-1 drain cycle allows any sediment to drain from the evaporator without interrupting the icemaking process.
C. Control Board Check Before replacing a control board that does not show a visible defect and that you suspect is bad, always conduct the following check procedure. This procedure will help you verify your diagnosis. 1) Check CB S1 dip switch settings to assure that they are in the factory default position. For factory default settings, see "III.B.1. Default Dip Switch Settings." Note: S1 dip switch 7 determines bin control application: BC (infrared sensor): S1 dip switch 7 in the "ON" position. BC (mech.
4) 5VDC Output Checks: CB K9 Connector: Control Switch (CB K9 #1 and #2) (open contacts for icemaking, closed contacts for drain), Jumper (CB K9 #3 and #4), Compressor Control Relay (K9 #5 and #6). Float Switch (K8 #5 (common), #6 (lower), and #7 (upper)). When checking 5VDC control voltage, always place the red positive test lead from the multimeter to the CB white K5 pin closest to the CB red K4 connector. See Fig. 2.
c. Float Switch (LFS and UFS) – CB K8 #5 (BK) (common), CB K8 #6 (R) (upper), and CB K8 #7 (BU) (lower): 5VDC is present from CB white K5 connector pin closest to CB red K4 connector to CB K8 #5 (BK) (common) at all times. If not, replace CB. 5VDC is present from CB white K5 connector pin closest to CB red K4 connector to CB K8 #6 (R) (upper) and CB K8 #7 (BU) (lower) when FS is open. If 5VDC is present between CB K8 #5 (BK) and CB K8 #6 (R) (upper) or CB K8 #7 (BU) (lower), FS is open.
7) Freeze Cycle "GM" and "COMP" LED are on: The 5-min. ice purge timer terminates or the ice purge cycle bypass button ("SERVICE") is pressed, "COMP" LED turns on. To bypass the 5-min. Ice Purge Cycle, press the "SERVICE" button on CB after the "GM" LED turns on. WARNING! Risk of electric shock. Care should be taken not to touch live terminals. 115VAC is present between CB X1 relay power supply black (BK) and neutral (W) at all times.
