SECTION 1. TROUBLESHOOTING
1-1. INTRODUCTION
This section provides troubleshooting information in the form of
an easy to read list.
If a problem occurs during the fi rst operation of a new cabinet,
recheck the Installation Section of the Operator’s Manual.
Before troubleshooting, always recheck the Operation Section of
the Operator’s Manual.
1-2. SAFETY Where information is of particular importance or is safety related,
the words NOTICE, CAUTION, or WARNING are used. Their
usage is described below.
SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL is used with DANGER,
WARNING, or CAUTION which indicates a personal
injury type hazard.
NOTICE is used to highlight especially important
information.
CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates
a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in property damage.
CAUTION used with the safety alert symbol indicates a
potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury.
The word WARNING is used to alert you to a
procedure, that if not performed properly, might
cause personal injury.
1-3. TROUBLESHOOTING To isolate a malfunction proceed as follows:
1. Clearly defi ne the problem or symptom and when it occurs.
2. Locate the problem in the troubleshooting table.
3. Review all possible causes, then one at a time work
through the list of corrections until the problem is solved.
If maintenance procedures are not followed correctly,
injuries and/or property damage could result.

This section provides procedures for the testing and replacement
of the various parts used within the cabinet. Before replacing any
parts, refer to the Troubleshooting Section. It will aid you in determining the cause of the malfunction.
2-2. TEST INSTRUMENTS You may use two test instruments to check the electric
components.
1. A continuity light
2. An ohmmeter
When the manual refers to the circuit being closed, the continuity
light illuminates or the ohmmeter reads zero unless otherwise noted.
When the manual refers to the circuit being open, the continuity
light will not illuminate or the ohmmeter will read 1 (one) or
infi nite resistance.
A continuity tester cannot be used to check coils.
2-3. REMOVAL OF THE
MODULE ACCESS
PANEL
In most procedures of the maintenance section, the access panel
must be removed from the top of the module. This access panel
can easily be removed by taking out the four screws that fasten it
to the module shell.
2-4. MODULE REMOVAL
If the component module of the cabinet has to be removed,
be sure to remove the four screws (one at each corner) before
lifting it from the unit. Also, when work has been completed
on the module, be sure to relocate it properly and reinstall the
screws that fasten the module to the cabinet. Failure to do so
might cause the unit to perform inadequately.
