CLAIMS.
CAUSES AND CHECK POINTS.
HOW TO CHECK
1. Faulty start
1) No power on outlet.
2) No power on cord.
3) Shorted start circuit.
4) During defrost.
* Measuring instrument :
Multi tester
■
Check the voltage.
If the voltage is within ±85%
of the rated voltage, it is OK.
■
Check the terminal
movement.
■
Check both terminals of
power cord.
Power conducts : OK.
No power conducts : NG
■
Check both terminals of
O.L.P.
If power conducts : OK.
If not : NG.
■
Check the resistance of both
terminals.
At normal temperature 6 :
OK.
If disconnected :
∞
.
Bad connection between adapter and outlet. (faulty adapter)
