AC Heater and DC Heater-Figure 25
A.
Measure resistance through the AC or DC heater using an
ohmmeter. The resistance should read:
1. AC Heater - 40.3 ohms +/- 5%.
2. DC Heater - .87 ohms +/- 5%.
B.
Measure the resistance between each heater lead and the
metal case of the heater. If any reading is observed, replace
heater.
Gas Valve-Figure 26
1.
During a trial for ignition, measure for 12 volt DC at the
gas valve. If 12 volt DC is not present, check:
A. Connection of the gas valve wires at the power board.
Secure if loose.
B. Continuity of the gas valve wires. Replace gas valve
wires if no continuity.
C. If 12 volt DC is not present at the gas valve terminals
replace power board.
D. If 12 volt DC is present, replace gas valve.
Sense/Ignition Electrode Wire-Figure 27
1.
Turn the refrigerator off.
2.
Disconnect the sense/ignition electrode wire from the
power board.
3.
Measure continuity of the sense/ignition electrode wire. If
no continuity, replace sense/ignition electrode wire.
4.
Check the sense/ignition electrode for a short to ground.
Replace the sense/ignition wire if a reading is observed.
