DIAGNOSING ICE THICKNESS CONTROL CIRCUITRY
Ice Machine Does Not Cycle Into Harvest When Water Contacts The Ice Thickness Control Probe
Step 1 Bypass the freeze time lock-in feature by moving the ICE/OFF/CLEAN switch to OFF and back to ICE.
Step 2 Wait until the water starts to flow over the evaporator (freeze cycle).
Step 3 Disconnect the ice thickness control from the control board, then connect a jumper wire from the control
board to any cabinet ground and monitor the harvest light.
Monitoring of Harvest Light
The harvest light comes on, and 10 seconds later, ice machine
cycles from freeze to harvest.
The harvest light comes on but the ice machine stays in the
freeze sequence.
The harvest light does not come on.
