115VACat CM L3 (BK) to CM N5 neutral (W). If 115VAC is not present, check power
switch, power cord connections, and breaker/fuse. Conrm wiring connections are
secure for both CM L3 (BK) (power supply) and CMN5(W) (neutral). If 115VAC is
present and DM is off, conrm display cable connection is secure. If DM is still off,
replace CM and DM with HS kit.
c) EvapFM Diagnosis: Conrm EvapFM energizes. If not, conrm doors are closed and
DS engaged. Next, check for 115VAC at DSR #8 (LBU) to #7neutral(W). If115VAC
is not present, check DS continuity. If DS is engaged and contacts are open, replace
DS. If 115VAC is present, check for 115VAC at CMF6 (BK) to neutral(W). If 115VAC
is not present, replace CM and DM with new HS kit. If115VAC is present, check for
115VAC at DSR #4(DBU) to neutral (W). If 115VAC is not present, check for 115VAC
at DSR #6 (BK) to neutral (W). If 115VAC is present at DSR #6 (BK) to neutral (W)
and not at DSR #4 (DBU) to neutral (W), replace DSR. If 115VAC is present at DSR
#4 (DBU) to neutral (W), check EvapFM blades for binding and EvapFM continuity.
d) Comp and ConFM Diagnosis: Conrm Comp and ConFM energize. Ifnot, check
for 115VAC at CM C1 (R) to neutral (W). If 115VAC is not present, check CTh
status. See "II.D.Thermistor Check." If CTh ohm reading is in proper range, replace
CM and DM with HS kit. If 115VAC is present at CM C1 (R) to neutral (W), check
continuity of HPS. If open, allow time for HPS to reset. If HPS does not reset,
see "e) HPS Activation" below. If HPS is closed, check for 115VAC at CR #5 (GY)
to CR#6neutral(W). If115VAC is present, check for 115VAC at CR#1 (R) to
neutral(W). If 115VAC is not present, replace CR. If 115VAC is present, and ConFM
is energized but Comp is not, check for 115VAC at Comp protector if external
(internal on 1-section, external on 2-section) to neutral (W). If 115VAC is not present,
give time for Comp protector to cool and reset. If Comp protector does not reset,
replace Comp protector. If115VAC is present, check run capacitor, start capacitor,
start relay, and Comp motor windings. If ConFM is not energized, check ConFM fan
blades for binding and motor winding continuity.
If Comp and ConFM are energized and the cabinet does not cool down, check for a
restriction in the refrigeration circuit, correct TXV operation, and correct refrigerant
charge.
e) HPS Activation: Conrm ConFM is energized and fan blade turns freely.
Conrmcondenser coil is not clogged or restricted. Conrm there are no restrictions
in the refrigeration circuit (TXV and drier). Let refrigeration circuit pressures
equalize. IfHPS does not reset and pressures are equalized, replace HPS. If
pressures are not equalized, reclaim refrigerant and diagnose refrigeration circuit
restriction.

8) Cool Down Achieved–CTh cools to 3°F (1.7°C) below setpoint. EvapFM, MH, and
PH continue. Comp and ConFM de-energize. Diagnosis: Conrm Comp and ConFM
de-energize. If not, and Comp and ConFM were energized longer than 2 min., check
CTh status. See "II.D. Thermistor Check." If CTh ohm reading is in range and Comp
and ConFM continue longer than 2 min., check for 115VAC at CM C1 (R) to neutral
(W). If115VAC is present, replace CM and DM with HS kit. If 115VAC is not present and
Comp and ConFM continue, check for 115VAC at CR #1 (R) to neutral (W). If 115VAC is
present, replace CR.
9) Defrost–"dEF" is displayed during defrost. There is a 5-min. minimum defrost time and
a 1-hr.maximum defrost time.
1a) Temperature/Time-Initiated: DTh cools to 32°F (0°C), 4-hr. cumulative Comp run
timer starts. Once DTh is at or below 32°F (0°C) with 4-hr. cumulative Comp run
timer satised (Comp energized more than 4 hrs.), "dEF"appears on DM. MH and
PH continue. DH and DrH energize. Comp, ConFM, and EvapFM de-energize.
1b) Manually-Initiated: To initiate a manual defrost, press and hold the lower button
for 5seconds. "dEF" appears in the display. MH and PH continue. DH and DrH
