  • Page 4: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION The service manual covers the implementation the compact series electronic models E169T, E240B, E249T. Electronics Changes to the compacts are that an electronic module has replaced the defrost timer and relay. A variable resistor replaces the thermostat. With the introduction of the electronic module, some of the current functions of the product will also change.
  • Page 5: Condenser Layout

    Condenser Layout The new compressors have no oil cooler lines, therefore the re-routing of the condenser is as follows: Discharge line from the compressors runs directly to the condenser on the back panel. From the back panel it enters the LH side condenser, through the cross rail heater (if applicable) then into the RH condenser, then into the filter dryer.

  • Page 7: Defrost Cycle

    Defrost Cycle The defrost heater is controlled by the control module, which switches it via a relay. The defrost interval can vary from between 8 hours of compressor run time to 16 hours of compressor run time, depending on the duration time of the last defrost. When the control module switches the compressor off for a defrost, there is a 2 minute delay before the defrost heater is turned on.
  • Page 8: Fault Codes

    FAULT CODES If a fault should develop in the temperature measurement system, defrost system, temperature control variable resistor, or should the compressor fail to start, an audio fault alarm will sound when to P.C. door is opened. The alarm consists of a number of beeps emitted by the beeper located in the control module.
  • Page 9: To Disable A Fault Alarm

    Fault 9: 9 beeps Reason: The resistance of the PC sensor is outside the normal range (> 45K Ohms). Primary Action: Check sensor resistance. Check the sensor connection at the control module. Secondary Action: Replace the sensor. Fault 10: 10 beeps Reason: The resistance of the PC sensor is outside the normal range (<...
  • Page 10: Service Procedures

    SERVICE PROCEDURES Note: No work is to be carried out on the product while in a live situation. All components can be at a 230volt potential. The product is to be turned off and disconnected from the power source. Electrical Safety Checks Whenever any part of the electrical circuit is serviced or disturbed in the course of carrying out service adjustments or repair, it is essential that insulation and earth continuity tests are carried out using the appropriate test equipment.
  • Page 11: Variable Resistor

    • Replacement of the sensor is done by cutting the wiring to the old sensor as close to the sensor as possible. Strip each wire back far enough (about 10mm) to allow it to be soldered to the wiring of the new sensor. Strip each wire of the new sensor back a similar amount and slide some heat shrink sleaving over each wire.
  • Page 13: Fault Finding

    FAULT FINDING The following faults and probable cause/s have been listed with the assumption that all basic checks have been carried out. Example, product has power, door is closing correctly etc. Compressor Won’t Start • Check continuity of overload. If no continuity replace overload. •...
  • Page 14: Fc Warm

    FC Warm • Check setting of control. • Check door seal. • Check frost pattern of FC evaporator. If fully frosted, check defrost by forcing a defrost. • If defrost doesn’t work, check defrost sensor and/or defrost heater and fuses. •...
