9.1 Internal Wiring

Check  all  wires  and  the  connectors  to  ensure  a  proper 

and tight connection. Also verify the refrigerator is wired 

per the wiring diagram for the model you are working on. 

(See applicable wiring diagrams for your model refrigera-

tor) A loose connection can create erratic operation. Al-

ways check the wires at the DC terminal block, two wires 

in and two wires out. 

SectIon 9 WIrIng

9.2 external Wiring

120 Volts ac connection:

 The refrigerator is equipped 

with a three prong (grounded) plug for protection against 

shock hazards and should be plugged directly into a prop-

erly grounded three prong receptacle. DO NOT cut or re-

move the grounding prong from this plug.

12 Volt connection: 

The connection is made to the ter-

minal block marked 12 volts DC. The control system is 

connected to a battery/converter circuit and could draw 

up  to  3  amps  at  12  volts  DC. The  refrigerator  must  be 

connected to the battery circuit with two wires of adequate 

capacity to avoid voltage drop. Proper polarity is crucial 

for  refrigerator  operation.  Don’t  use  the  chassis  for  the 

ground circuit. 

 

A loose connection will create erratic op-

eration on gas and AC. The wires must be a dedicated cir-

cuit. 

no other electrical equipment or lighting should 

be connected to refrigerator circuit.

9.3 Wiring Schematics

To view typical wiring schematics look in the Lower Circuit 

board testing section 5, page 14. All units should have a 

specific schematic on the rear of that unit. To acquire the 

proper  one  always  have  the  product  number  when  you 

call or e-mail.

SectIon 10 error codes

The  codes  are  displayed  flashing  (  alternating  between 

temperature and message) on the display. 

No communication between display and power modules. 

The control system will revert to full automatic operation 

selecting the best energy source available with AC, GAS 

priority. The temperature setting will be maintained at the 

mid positions. The power module will continually attempt 

to reestablish operation of the display module. Test Cable, 

Upper LED display panel, Lower board, clean all grounds, 

and try a different DC power source. If problem still exist 

change lower control board.

e 0

e 1

Hardware fault in the gas operation system.

Test  Upper  and  lower  controls,  Solenoid,  wire  harness, 

clean all grounds and try a different DC power source.

A failure of the temperature sensor device or associated 

electronic circuitry has occurred. If the connection to the 

temperature sensor is faulty, the cooling unit runs continu-

ously ( over cool ) after 30 seconds delay at power on. 

Test Thermistor.

SectIon 11 diagnostic mode

To perform a diagnostic test:

1. 

Turn off the refrigerator. (press ON/OFF button) 

2. 

Press and hold the TEMP. SET button and then,

   

press the ON/OFF button.

3. 

Release the TEMP. SET button. Press it again to

   

toggle the list of functions step by step.
