Probable Solution
Plug unit into power supply
Push and release on/off button
Restore water supply, check sensor. If
RO water is too pure, unit cannot
operate.
Check float valve for restriction
Check float valve shut off lever position
Check auger motor for voltage, if none,
replace controller. If there is voltage,
check auger motor windings, if open,
replace auger motor.
Check evaporator for ice. Thaw out and
retry. Check top bearing and condition of
auger. Replace if worn.
Operate unit for a short time with auger
out of machine, water shut off and water
sensor bypassed. If auger motor still
overloads, replace gear reducer.
Check fan blade for ease of rotation,
remove any blockage and retry. Check
fan motor, replace if not turning freely or
motor windings open.
Check compressor start relay, check
compressor windings.
Check compressor. See component
diagnostics.
Check ice sweep. If tight to auger, auger
is not turning. Gears stripped, replace
gear reducer.
Check connections to auger motor, if
voltage to motor and it does not operate,
replace motor.
If pump model check for water back up
or open safety switch.
Check transformer, replace if not
supplying 12 volts AC to controller.
Check switch membrane. See
component diagnostics.
If transformer and membrane are good,
replace controller.
