Flashing fault symbol Cont.
The compressor fails to start.
Check for 120v AC at the compressor during the refrigeration cycle.
If no voltage is present then replace the circuit plate “DIM15.43”.
If voltage is present check the overload, PTC thermistor, and compressor.
Replace bad state component. If the compressor is bad during the
warranty period exchange the machine.
Other causes
Ice clumping, sticking to, or refreezing can jamb the tray.
Unfortunately when this happens often the unit has been in fault mode for
a while and the symptoms have melted away by the time the consumer
catches it. At this point it can be reset and in many cases may work fine at
least for a few batches.
There are several things that can cause this to happen including:
1)
Cold room temperature (below 55°F or 12.8
°C.)
2)
Damaged or pitted cooling prongs
3)
Low refrigerant charge
Make sure the unit is in a warm environment. Inspect the cooling prongs
for any dents, kinks, or pits fig.7.
If the charge is low some of the prongs may not produce ice nor enough
heat in the condenser to break all of the ice loose in defrost.
If during the warranty period the cooling prongs are damaged or the
charge is low exchange the unit
