Two 12 volt, 10 watt halogen lamps are used in the PC and one in the FC.

Thermistor Temperature Sensors

These sensors are used to monitor temperatures within the refrigerator. There are three:
1.
Defrost sensor mounted above the evaporator, used to measure the temperature during
defrost.
2.
FC sensor mounted on the evaporator coil cover, used to measure the temperature in FC.
3.
PC sensor mounted in the PC on the duct cover and used to sense the PC temperature.
Thermistor sensors are used for temperature measurement. Their electrical resistance changes
as the temperature changes.
temperature can be read on the display once the diagnostic mode is entered.
