4)Initial Harvest Cycle – LEDs 1, 4, and 2 are on. WV and X2 relay (auxiliary code T‑0, U-0), X11 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later) remain energized, HGV, X1 relay
(auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X10 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later), Comp, and FMR energize. CB monitors the warming of the evaporator via the thermistor located on the suction line. When the thermistor reaches 48°F (9°C), CB reads a 3.9 kΩ signal from the thermistor and turns harvest termination over to the harvest timer (S4 dip switch 1 & 2). The harvest timer has settings of 60, 90, 120, and 180 seconds. For details, see
"II.C.2.b) Harvest Timer (S4 dip switch 1 & 2)." When the harvest timer terminates, the harvest cycle is complete. CB checks the position of F/S and proceeds to the next cycle if it is closed, or calls for a 1-minute fill cycle if it is open. The minimum total time allowed by CB for a complete harvest cycle is 2 minutes.
WV is energized during harvest for a maximum of 6 minutes or the length of harvest minus 0 or 50 seconds (harvest pump timer (S4 dip switch 7)), whichever is shorter. LED 4 goes off when WV and X2 relay (auxiliary code T-0, U-0), X11 relay (auxiliary code U-1 and later) de-energize. LED 3 comes on and PM energizes and runs for the last 0 or 50 seconds of harvest depending on S4 dip switch 7 setting. CAUTION! Do not adjust S4 dip switch 7 out of the factory default position on this model. Adjustment outside of the factory default position may result in damage to the icemaker. For details, see "II.C.2.e) Harvest Pump Timer (S4 dip switch 7)."
PM is energized through the #5 pin (DBu wire) on the CB K1 ten-pin connector and the X1 relay (auxiliary code T‑0, U-0), X10 relay (auxiliary code U‑1 and later). When the harvest timer terminates, the harvest cycle is complete. CB checks the position of F/S and proceeds to the next cycle if it is closed or calls for a 1‑minute fill cycle if it is open. The minimum total time allowed by CB for a complete harvest cycle is 2 minutes. Diagnosis: Check if Comp is running, HGV and WV still energized. Average harvest cycle at factory setting is 2 to 3 minutes. How long does initial harvest last? 1.5 minutes after initial harvest begins, touch Comp discharge line. Is it hot? If not, check refrigerant pressures and Comp operation. If it is hot, touch the inlet line to the evaporator. Is it hot? If it is hot and the freeze cycle is not starting, check the harvest timer adjustment (S4 dip switch 1 & 2), the thermistor for open circuit, the discharge line temperature, Comp efficiency, and if HGV is fully open. For a thermistor check, see "IV.E. Thermistor Check." Check that PM circulates water over evaporator for the last 50 seconds of harvest. If not, check X1 relay (auxiliary code T‑0, U-0), X10 relay (auxiliary code U‑1 and later) and S4 dip switch 3 & 4. If 1-minute fill cycle starts, see "IV.D. Float Switch Check and Cleaning."
5)Freeze Cycle – LED 1 is on. Comp and FMR remain energized, PM energizes or remains energized depending on harvest pump timer (S4 dip switch 7) setting. FM and LLV energize. HGV and X1 relay (auxiliary code T‑0, U-0), X10 relay (auxiliary code U‑1 and later) de‑energize. The unit is held in freeze by a 5-minute short cycle protection timer (CB will not accept a signal from F/S). After the 5-minute short cycle protection timer terminates, CB turns freeze termination over to F/S. During the first 5 minutes of freeze, confirm that the evaporator temperature drops. After 5 minutes in freeze, disconnect black F/S connector from CB BLACK K5 connector.
After a 15 second delay, the unit should switch out of the freeze cycle. Diagnosis: If the evaporator is not cold, check to see if HGV is still open or if TXV is not opening properly, if WV is continuing to fill the reservoir, if there are improper unit pressures,
