Troubleshooting Procedures
! WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death, disconnect power to unit before servicing, unless testing
requires power.
*Note: Function may not occur for up to 20 seconds.
While in the Board Output Test, the Quick
Wash LED is always ON.
When the Neptune TL is plugged in, the
Machine Control Board will check the lid
latch mechanism every 20 seconds. If found
to be locked with no cycle running, the
Control Board will send a signal to the switch
to unlock the lid.
Display Diagnostic Codes
The diagnostic code display can be
toggled on and off from Service Mode
by pressing the
Wrinkle Control
key.
The display will show a
“d”
.
The diagnostic codes can be viewed by using the Set
Delay Time
arrow keys. The
Set Delay Time
down
arrow key will cycle down the list one code at time each
time it is pushed. The Set Delay Time up arrow key will
cycle up the list one code each time it is pushed. The
first time the
Set Delay Time
down arrow key is pushed,
the newest code will be displayed. A code generated
during or after the current cycle will be displayed with
the rightmost dot “.” turned “ON”.
Access Other Features
While a diagnostic code is displayed, if the
Normal
Cycle
key is pressed and held, the machine will display
the number of cycles since the diagnostic code
occurred. To clear the diagnostic list press the
Quick
Wash
and
Whites
key while viewing the list. The cycle
count for each diagnostic code will also be reset to 0,
but not the machine cycle count.
