5.3 Troubleshooting Built-in Filtration Systems (BIH Series Only)

This section provides an easy reference guide to some of the common problems that may occur during the operation of built-in filtration systems. The troubleshooting tables that follow are intended to help correct, or at least accurately diagnose, problems with this equipment. Although the chapter covers the most common problems reported, you may encounter problems that are not covered. In such instances, the Frymaster Technical Services staff will make every effort to help you identify and resolve the problem. The BIH/MH14 Service manual (819-5625) contains more detailed troubleshooting procedures for the fryer and the filtration system, which should always be performed by a trained service technician.

When troubleshooting a problem, always use a process of elimination starting with the simplest solution and working through to the most complex. Never overlook the obvious – anyone can forget to plug in a cord or fail to close a valve completely. Most importantly, always try to establish a clear idea of why a problem has occurred. Part of any corrective action involves taking steps to ensure that it doesn’t happen again. If a controller malfunctions because of a poor connection, check all other connections, too. If a fuse continues to blow, find out why. Always keep in mind that failure of a small component may often be indicative of potential failure or incorrect functioning of a more important component or system.

Before calling a service agent or the Frymaster HOTLINE (1-800-24FRYER):

•Verify that electrical cords are securely plugged in.

•Verify that circuit breakers are on.

•Verify that frypot drain valves are fully closed.
