TROUBLE SHOOTING

6-5) When Defrost does not operate

Pre-Check
1. With a shorted-out Defrost Sensor, the fridge operates normally excepting Defrost(The fault can be picked up
with self-diagnosis, POWER ON/OFF).
2. There will be Heating trouble with a shorted-out Temp FUSE, which contributes to Defrost by natural Temp
increase resulting in a Temp Control problem stemmed from the increased COMP OFF time.
3. When Defrost Sensor is faulty as OPEN, Heating will not be terminated, and COMP will remain off following
the Temp FUSE short-off.(The fault can be picked up with self-diagnosis, POWER ON/OFF)
