DIAGNOSIS

Pre-Diagnostics Checks

•Confirm the refrigerator and freezer temperatures before beginning other checks.

•See if the compressor, evaporator fan, or condenser fan is running.

•Check to see if the baffle is open or closed.

Diagnostics Mode

The refrigerator must be plugged in for at least 13 seconds prior to entering the diagnostic mode. This mode tests the thermistor inputs and control board outputs.

After 20 minutes, the control will default from the diagnostic mode to the normal cooling mode.

To enter the diagnostics mode:

Press the control POWER button and the water filter RESET button simultaneously for 3 seconds.

Style 2 - For models without ladders, the thermistor should be placed behind the air scoop assembly 7.8" (20 cm) down from the freezer compartment ceiling. Tape the thermistor lead to the freezer liner.

To advance the diagnostics sequence:

To advance to the next step in the sequence, press and hold the water filter reset button for 2 seconds or until it beeps. The Diagnostics Chart shows the number of steps and the component tested at each step.
