5)Freeze Cycle – LED 1 is on. Comp and FMR remain energized, PM, LLV, and FM energize. WV and HGV deenergize. 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

5minute short cycle protection timer expires, CB turns freeze termination over to F/S. Diagnosis: 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. 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, an inoperative Comp, or an inoperative HM. The unit should switch out of the freeze cycle ("G" CB - 15 second delay after F/S opens before terminating the freeze cycle). If the unit switches out of freeze with F/S removed, but would previously not switch out of freeze with F/S connected (long freeze - 3 beep alarm), F/S may be sticking. To check and clean F/S, see "IV.D. Float Switch Check and Cleaning." If the unit remains in freeze (longer than 15 seconds on "G" CB)

after disconnecting the black F/S connector, replace CB. See "V.P. Removal and Replacement of Control Board."

Note: Normal freeze cycle will last 20 to 40 minutes depending on model and conditions. Cycle times and pressures should follow performance data provided in this manual. See "III.C. Performance Data."

6)Pump-Out Cycle – (10/20 second pump-out) – LEDs 1, 3, and 2 are on. LED 4 is on when S4 dip switch 3 & 4 are set to 3 off and 4 on. Comp and FMR remain energized, HGV energizes. WV energizes if S4 dip switch 3 off and 4 on. LLV and FM deenergize. PM stops for 2 seconds, then reverses for 10/20 seconds depending on pumpout timer S4 dip switch 3 & 4 setting. When the pump-out timer expires, the pump-out is complete. The pump-out frequency control is factory set for every 10th cycle, and generally no adjustment is required. However, where water quality is bad and the icemaker needs a pumpout more often, the pumpout frequency can be adjusted. The pump-out frequency control (S4 dip switch 5 & 6) can be set to have

a pump-out occur every cycle, or every 2, 5, or 10 cycles. For details, see "II.C.3.d) PumpOut Frequency Control (S4 dip switch 5 & 6)."

Timing of the first pump-out is dependent on CB. "E" CB first pumpout is after the first freeze cycle. "G" CB first pump-out is determined by S4 dip switch 5 & 6. See the table below.

Diagnosis: If PM does not reverse, check to see if S4 and S5 dip switch settings are in the factory default position. Check PM circuit and capacitor, check #5 pin (DBu wire) on CB K1 ten-pin connector for voltage. If water does not pump out, check and clean the check valve assembly and tubing.
