DIAGNOSTIC
6-4) If there is a trouble with self-diagnosis(sensor failure)
-Error in sensor can be seen on the front display of refrigerator. If sensor failure is found when power is initially impressed to refrigerator, the product will not work, and display is repeatedly blinking in the trouble occurred sensor.
-Even if sensor has failure during the oeration refrigerator will not stop working but can’t run the normal cooling operation because of being operated in the Emergency Operation mode. Thus, be sure to follow instructions in the manual when you make
1)If the ambient temperature sensor has trouble
This model has an ambient temperature sensing operation in the panel PCB. The sensed information is communicated between main PCB and panel PCB. So you must review the causes of failure without disassembling the panel PCB. If it displays the sensor ERROR in the parts related to the ambient temperature sensor on the panel, it is understood that the communication with MAIN PCB is normal. In this case, check the sensor unit, missing wires and short & breaking or wires, etc.
