Introduction
Patty Placement Guides
Placement procedures of meat products must be followed on the clamshell grill. Meat must be placed on the lower grill plate two patties at a time, front to back and right to left. When the cook cycle is complete, the upper platen will raise.
Note: It is very important that all patties be removed from the lower grill plate in the same sequence that they were placed before cooking.
Patties must be removed immediately after the upper platen has been raised to the OPEN position and after the meat has been seasoned.
The sandblasted outlines on the lower cook surface show where product should be placed.
The following charts are to be used as patty placement guides:

Compressor and Accumulator
The compressor pumps air into the accumulator, building the pressure in the accumulator to 60 psi (414 kPa).
Check Valve
The check valve is a “one‐way” valve which allows the compressor to start under a no load condition. When the compressor stops operating, the check valve also allows pressure to exhaust between the compressor and the valve itself.
Pressure Switch
When air pressure has left the accumulator, the pressure switch recognizes this and activates the compressor again. Generally, the platen can be raised 4-5 times between compressor cycles.
The pressure switch for the three platen grills closes at 67 psi (462 kPa) and opens at 47 psi (324 kPa). The pressure switch for the two platen grills closes at 60 psi (414 kPa) and opens at 35 psi (241 kPa).
Relief Valve
The relief valve ensures that accumulator pressure does not exceed 70 lbs (483 kPa).
Regulator
Regulates the pressure necessary to hold the upper platen in the closed position at 35 psi (241 kPa).
Latch Solenoid
When activated, the latch solenoid opens the flow of air pressure which holds the air cylinder plunger in the raised position. This plunger keeps the upper platen in its closed position during the cook time.
Air Cylinder
When cook times elapse, the air cylinder dampens the opening of the upper platen.

Model C835 & C845 Gas Connections
To ensure proper operation, the Model C835 and C845 gas grills require a minimum pipe size of 1 inch (25 mm). For propane gas, the next lower size can be used. If in doubt, contact the local gas company.
The grill must be connected to the existing gas supply lines with the hose assembly included in the accessory package.
All gas line connections and plumbing must be inspected for leaks by using an electric leak detector or a soap solution.
Gas Regulator Inspection
Step 1
Disconnect all power to the grill. Failure to follow this instruction may result in electrical shock.
Step 2
Step 9
After all heat zones are turned on, verify the gas regulator settings:
Domestic:
Regulator Setting Tolerance
Natural Gas ‐ 3.5” w.c. 3.2 - 3.8 Propane Gas ‐ 10.5” w.c. 9.5 - 11.5
Note: Domestic gas regulators must NOT be adjusted. If the pressure adjustment deviates from
the tolerance range, the valve must be replaced.
International:
See Figure 44 on page 61.
IMPORTANT: Regulators should be inspected separately.
Step 10
Remove all power, turn off the gas supply, and re‐install the MPT plug, using an approved sealant.
Turn off all gas supply. Failure to comply can result in a fire hazard.
Step 3
Remove the MPT plug from the gas manifold.
Step 4

Model C845 Heating System Operation - Pimple Pilot
Starting with serial number M2125255, the Model C845 is built with the pimple pilot electrode.
Pimple Pilot Electrode
The pimple pilot is a style of electrode that implements a gas line. The electrode ground rod is replaced by a ground tube. The tube serves two purposes. It operates as a ground for the spark and it directs a small amount of raw gas (not mixed with air) to the spark gap to create a pilot flame. A bridge has been added to ensure the spark gap remains fixed over time.
Air Section
The fan operates. Static pressure builds up and engages the static pressure switch. Air is distributed to the venturi tube. The amount of air supplied to the burner is controlled by the air adjustment rod.
Gas Section
The pimple pilot gas line is connected to the grill's gas supply after the gas valves and before the blower. A 90 degree integral orifice regulates the gas to the pimple pilot.
Gas from the supply is regulated through the gas regulator. Gas is distributed through the gas solenoids to the burner and the gas pilot electrode.
Upon ignition, the solenoids remain open and gas is supplied to the orifice on the burner venturi and pimple pilot.
Burner Section
Air and gas is mixed in the burner venturi. This mixture is forced through openings in the burner and is ignited. Combustion gases are released through the flue at the rear of the grill.
The pimple pilot system also includes a new lower burner. The burner iincludes a formed-in grounding screen. The incorporated screen increases the sensitivity to the flame sense signal.

Model C835 & C845 Ignition Detection Control - Domestic
The gas grills contain an Ignition Detection Control (IDC) which is responsible for generating a
high voltage spark. The IDC Board has three functions:
S Opens the gas solenoid S Creates a spark S Provides a lockout safety feature
Lockout
If the flame is not detected, the ignition probe will not receive flame sense current and the gas solenoid will close. The unit will lock out and “Blower Failure” will be displayed.

High Voltage Gas System - IDC Overview
Ignition Detection Control (International)
The International grill models contain an Ignition Detection Control (IDC) which is responsible for the ignition and monitoring of the gas burner system. The Fenwal IDC operates with a single trial ignition sequence. The IDC board has four functions.
S Turning blower on/off S Opens gas solenoid S Creates a spark S Provides lockout safety features
System Overview
Call for Heat
When a call for heat is received from the Motor Control Board 24 Volts are sent to TH/W. The IDC will then check for normally open contacts at the pressure switch. The blower is then turned on and the control checks the pressure switch to ensure it is closed, and the prepurge of the burner begins. Next the gas solenoids are energized and the IDC starts its single trial ignition.
Ignition (Single Ignition)
When flame is detected during the ignition the IDC stops sending voltage to the electrode. The blower and gas solenoid remain energized. The IDC monitors the 24 MCB input, pressure switch position (Closed) and the presence of flame in the burner (Flame Sense). When the call for heat is satisfied (TH/W will receive a low signal from MCB) the gas solenoid closes, the IDC monitors the loss of flame sense and the blower is deenergized.
IDC Fault Codes
The Fenwal IDC is equipped with system fault detection. The fault modes are then expressed through the IDC’s LED. The following section will cover the failures and their correlating LED sequences. The LED will flash on for a ¼ of a second and off for a ¼ of a second. The pause between fault codes is 3 seconds.
Internal Control Failure (LED stays on)
This occurs when the IDC has an internal component failure. The fault can be reset by cycling the power of the grill. If the IDC continues to display the fault after cycling the power the IDC will have to be replaced.
Air Flow Fault (LED Flashes 1 time)
1. During the ignition sequence the IDC monitors the blower air flow by monitoring the of the pressure switch (pressure switch must be in closed position). If the grill is calling for heat and the pressure switch is closed for 30 seconds without the blower being energized, the IDC will go into an air flow fault. The control will remain in this lockout and the blower will be off.
2. If the pressure switch stays open for 30 seconds after the blower is energized a fault will be displayed. The blower will remain on waiting for the pressure switch to close. When pressure builds and close the switch, the IDC will begin its normal ignition trial. If pressure from the blower does not build the IDC will remain in this fault mode.
3. If the pressure switch opens during a heat cycle the gas valve will be deenergized and the blower will remain on. If the pressure switch does not close with 30 seconds a fault will be displayed.

McDonald's Intelligap Grills
Flame Fault (LED flashes 2 times)
Flame Failure Reignition
If the gas solenoid fails to close completely and the burner stays lit, the flame sense circuit will detect it and energize the blower. The blower will remain on until the gas valve closes and the flame sense is lost.
Ignition Lockout (LED flashes 3 times)
This section will cover the Failure to Ignite, Reignition and Lockout Reset.
This IDC has a single trial ignition. If the burner fails to light or the flame sense is not detected during ignition, the control will lockout. When the control goes into this lockout the gas solenoid and blower will be turned off.
If the burner is lit and it goes out (Flame Sense is lost) the control will try to reignite within 0.8 seconds. If the burner fails to ignite the IDC will go into Ignition Lockout. If the burner does light during the reignition sequence, the control will operate as normal.
Lockout Reset
When the IDC goes into lockout it must be manually reset. This is accomplished by removing the 24 Volt input from 24VAC(R) for 5 seconds.

Circuit Overview
1. When a MCB calls for heat the MCB sends a 24 volt signal to TH/W. This initiates the ignition sequence.
2. The IDC then checks the position of the pressure switch. At this stage of the sequence the pressure switch should be open.
3. Once the open position of the pressure switch is verified the IDC sends 220VAC to the blower motor.
a. The first is a volt signal is send from the 12
IDC Output (On MCB) to contact 12 on relay. When the relay closes the 12 volt signal comes out of contact 8 and it sent to J4 Pin 10.
1. The feedback to the J4 Pin 10 connection tells the board that the system is in working order. If this signal does not return to the Pin 10 connection the MCB will assume there is a failure in the system, and cut power to the IDC resulting in a BLOWER failure.
b. The second function of the relay is to
connect L1 to the gas solenoid.
4. Once the blower is energized the IDC rechecks the pressure switch to ensure it is in the closed position.
5. The high voltage signal is now sent to the electrode for ignition
6. Next V1 output is sent to the gas system’s relay. When the coil of the relay is energized two sets of contacts are closed. The relay has two functions in this system.
7. Once the burner lights, the IDC removes the voltage to the electrode and monitors the 24 MCB input, pressure switch position (Closed) and the presence of flame in the burner (Flame Sense).
8. When the call for heat is satisfied the MCB will cut power to TH/W.
9. The IDC will recognize the heat cycle is over and deenergizes the gas system relay. The IDC monitors the loss of the flame sense signal. When the signal is lost (Flame has gone out) the IDC deenergizes the blower motor.

Flame Sense Current Test (high voltage international models only)
Flame Sense is the current that passes through the flame from the electrode to ground. The flames coming off of the burner complete the circuit from electrode to ground. If the circuit is not completed the IDC assumes there is no flame. The minimum flame sense current needed is .7μA. The following step will cover the test procedure.
Figure 50
1. To measure the flame sense current connect a multimeter (with Micro Amp capability) to the FC+ (Positive meter probe) and FC (Negative meter probe).
2. The burner must be lit to measure current. This is accomplished by manually turning the burner on from the service menu.
Note: The polarity of the meter probes matters in this test. If the probes are reversed the current reading will be incorrect.

Motor/Platen Troubleshooting
IMPORTANT! The following visual observations do
not necessarily mean a motor has failed:
S Oil residue on the motor housing or oil spots
are visible on the insulation.
S The motor is making a chattering noise. S The front motor appears slower when
autoleveling. Swap the front motor with either the left or right rear motors. Reference Service Bulletin 0182SG.
All troubleshooting procedures should be followed to determine if a motor has failed before replacing the motor.
Note: When completing the Return Material Tag (RMT) for a failed motor, indicate the platen position (left, center, right), motor location (left, right, front), and the type of failure (mechanical or electrical).
Test 1: Visual Inspection
IMPORTANT! Before performing this inspection,
verify that the interlock switch is OFF. Remove the platen cover and perform a visual inspection. Check for:
S Grease shields binding.
S Carbon buildup around the grease shields. S Wire harnesses showing damage or binding. S Lift cables are kinked, broken or not in the
pulley groove.
Test 2: Pulley Oscillation
Perform this test only if display reads “Please Wait for Auto Leveling”.
IMPORTANT! Verify that the power is ON.
Autolevel the platen. Observe the pulleys and cables once the platen has lowered to the cook surface.
If the pulleys do not oscillate and the cables remain slack, set meter to DC Voltage and check pins 4, 5, and 6 on each motor plug to ground. If all readings fluctuate continuously, replace the motor.
Note: Readings on good motors will stabilize (example: 4.9, 0, 4.9).
If the platen does not lower, proceed to test 3.

Test 3: Motor Hall Harness Ground Check
IMPORTANT! Verify that the interlock switch is ON and the 12 pin harness is plugged in.
Step 1
On the motor hall harness (12 pin) check pin 12 (red) for 12 VDC to ground.
Step 2
On the motor hall harness (12 pin) check pin 12 (red) for 12 VDC to pin 11 (black).
Step 3
On the motor hall harness (12 pin) check pin 11 (black) for 0 VDC to ground. If the reading is not 0 VDC, check all earth to ground connections.

Test 4: Motor Turning
IMPORTANT! Verify that the interlock switch is ON,
but the display mode is OFF. With the motors plugged into the interface board, using an 8” (200 mm) crescent wrench, slowly turn each motor to the left and right.
CAUTION: Once the motor shaft stop pin hits the motor bracket do not attempt to turn motor.
Figure 53
Before replacing the motor, complete all remaining troubleshooting procedures to determine the cause of the short.
Step 2
Measure the phase windings resistance on pins 7 to 8, 7 to 9, and 8 to 9 of the motor plug. All readings should be approximately the same (example: 4.2,
4.2, 4.2). If all of the readings are not similar, the motor has failed and needs to be replaced. Note: Readings will vary depending on ambient temperature.
If the motors do not turn, unplug the motors from the board and perform the same test.
IMPORTANT! Verify that the interlock switch is OFF.
S If the motors turn when they are unplugged,
there is an electrical issue.
S If the motors do not turn when they are
unplugged, there is a mechanical issue and the motor needs to be replaced.
Test 5: Identifying a Failed Motor
IMPORTANT! This test requires a meter with a 9
VDC battery. Repeat these steps for all 3 motor plugs.
IMPORTANT! Verify that the interlock switch is OFF. Unplug the motor from the interface board and perform the following tests.
Step 1
Check all pins on the motor plug to ground. All readings should be OL. If the reading is not OL, the motor has shorted and will need be replaced.
Step 3
Measure resistance with the positive (red) lead on pin 1 to pins 4, 5, and 6 of the motor plug. All readings should be approximately the same. If all of the readings are not similar, the motor has failed and needs to be replaced.
Step 4
Measure resistance with the positive (red) lead on pin 2 to pins 4, 5, and 6 of the motor plug. All readings should be approximately the same. If all of the readings are not similar, the motor has failed and needs to be replaced.

Step 5
Measure the capacitance between pins 1 and 2 of the motor plug. All readings should be 300 nF +/10%. If the readings are not in the range, the motor has failed and needs to be replaced.
Note: Meter must be set to nanofarad for this test.
Test 6: Interface Board Continuity
With all five plugs disconnected from the interface board, check for continuity between the pins as shown in the following diagrams. If any of these tests fail, replace the interface board.
Note: Newer versions of the interface board have a female interface for the Motor Supply. Although testing is the same, the numerical order of the pins will be flipped as indicated on the board itself.
