TROUBLESHOOTING
- The error of sensor will be displayed on the front of display.
When the error of sensor is detected at initial power ON, the appliance will operated by the
emergency mode and display of abnormal sensor part will blink.
- The appliance will not stop operating when the error of sensor is detected during operation of the
appliance.
But normal freezing might be not operated if the appliance is operated by the emergency operation
mode. You would better to check the appliance according to the self-diagnosis of the manual.
4-2-1. If the trouble is detected by self-diagnosis
1) If ICE Maker(R) Sensor has troubled
Bad contact of connector/ insert correctly
Is MAIN PCB Connector
CN30 inserted correctly?
Is ICE Maker(R) Sensor
unit normal?
Is the voltage between
MAIN PCB Connector CN30#"7"(Brown) and
REG1, HEAT SINK normal?
Is input voltage of IC01
MICOM #75 normal?

YES
YES
YES
YES
Replace the temperature sensor
NO
Check the contact of PCB & Wire
Terminal correctly.
NO(0.6V > Measurement < 4.6V)
Check the iced-solder, solder bridging,
disturbed solder.
Replace the PCB
NO
No trouble with PCB and temperature sensor.
Recheck the bad contact of the connection.

CN30-"7"(Brown) and REG1, HEAT SINK from
PCB typical Ground part are similar.
