Page 13: Airflow
AIRFLOW Damper The fresh food compartment receives chilled air via an electronic damper that is positioned at the top rear of the fresh food compartment. The damper is controlled by the main control board and when open, allows the evaporator fan to push chilled air from the evaporator into the fresh food compartment. To remove the damper 1. -
Page 14: Evaporator Fan
Evaporator Fan The position of the fan blade in relation to the shroud is important. Refer to illustration for specifications. 5/16 +/- .03 Airflow The evaporator fan is the same fan used on previous models; however a significant difference is that the main control board does not require, nor receive, input from the fan feedback/rpm (blue) wire. - Page 15 If the fan shorts, it will damage the main control board. If the resistor on the main control board is burnt, you must replace the fan and the board (see photo). Evaporator and Condenser Fan Resistors – 15 –...
- Page 16 White Wire (DC Common) The white wire is the DC common wire used for testing. During repairs, DC polarity must be observed. Reversing the DC polarity will cause a shorted motor and/or board. Red Wire (Supply) Each motor uses an internal electronic controller to operate the motor.

Page 20: Defrost Heater
Defrost Heater Screws Caution: Use care to avoid scratching the finish on unit walls. The defrost heater is a single-calrod type, radiant heater mounted under the evaporator. To remove the defrost heater: 1. Remove the drawer (see procedure). 2. Remove upper right slide/support assembly by removing 3 Phillips screws. -
Page 21: Control System
CONTROL SYSTEM Temperature Control Assembly Touch Panel Touch Panel and Temperature Control Board The temperature control assembly is located at the top front of the fresh food compartment and contains the touch panel and temperature control board. P0003340 The temperature control board receives switched DC voltage from the main control board. -
Page 22: Main Control Board
Main Control Board The main control board, located behind a metal cover at the top of the refrigerator in the machine compartment, manages the operation of the refrigerator by calculating response from various inputs. – 22 –... - Page 23 Feedback of fresh food thermistor value. Thermistor is NTC, when temperature drops, resistance value increases, causing return voltage reduction. This value is used to cycle fresh food fan J1 or J14 (when used), evaporator fan, compressor, and condensor fan. Feedback is filtered to respond to 8 degrees of change per minute.

Page 28: Thermistors
Thermistors This main control board uses input from 4 thermistors. These thermistors are located in the fresh food section, the freezer section, and on the evaporator. The main control board monitors the thermistors to determine the temperature in these areas of the unit and determines which components to run and when to run them based on this information. -
Page 29: Electrical System
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Door and Drawer Switches The door switch (fresh food door or freezer drawer) closes when the door is open. When the door switch is closed, L1 is provided to the compartment light(s). The main control board receives L1 input on pin 6, J7 when the fresh food door switch is closed (door open). -

Page 33: Inverter Compressor
Inverter Compressor The new inverter compressor is not controlled by 120 VAC output from the main control board, as in previous models. The compressor is controlled by the inverter. Warning: Disconnecting the 6-pin connector does not disconnect power (120 VAC) from the inverter. The refrigerator must be unplugged before servicing the inverter or compressor. - Page 34 High compressor torque enables the compressor to start against high pressure in the sealed system. When power has been disconnected from an operating unit, the high torque may enable the compressor to start immediately upon power restoration. The compressor, if unable to start after 12 times, will wait for 8 minutes before trying again.

Page 35: Inverter
Inverter Warning: Disconnecting the 6-pin connector does not disconnect power (120 VAC) from the inverter. The refrigerator must be unplugged before servicing the inverter. Note: Certain voltmeters will not be able to read voltage output from the inverter. If no voltage or erratic voltage is measured, it does not necessarily indicate a faulty inverter. - Page 36 Note: When servicing the inverter, it is important to dress the wiring to keep low-voltage DC wiring and 120 VAC wiring separate. To remove the inverter: 1. Unplug the unit. 2. Open access cover. 3. Loosen the 2 hex-head bolts that hold the inverter in place.
