d) PM Diagnosis: Conrm water is owing over evaporator from PM and not WV. If PM
de-energizes once freeze begins, check for 115VAC at CB K1 #4 (R) to neutral (W).
If 115VAC is not present, replace CB. If 115VAC is present and PM is de-energized,
check for 115VAC at control switch #5 (R) to neutral (W). If 115VAC is present at CB
K1 #4 (R) and not at control switch #5 (R), check control switch continuity between
#5 (R) and #4 (R). Replace as needed. If 115VAC is present at control switch #5 (R)
to neutral (W), check PM capacitor and motor winding continuity.
e) FM and LLV Diagnosis: If FM or LLV does not energize, check for 115VAC at CB
K1#3 (BK) to neutral (W). If 115VAC is not present, replace CB. If 115VAC is present:
For FM, check capacitor, motor winding, and blade for binding.
For LLV, check coil voltage and continuity.
f) Refrigerant Pressures, HM, and TXV Diagnosis: If evaporator is still not cooling,
check refrigerant pressures. See "VIII.B. Performance Data."
Next, check HM operation. If refrigeration pressures are above HM setpoint and
HMis bypassing, replace HM. Check TXV for proper operation. Remove TXV bulb
and hold it in your hand, refrigerant low-side pressure should rise, place TXV bulb in
ice water, refrigerant low-side pressure should drop. A 10 to 15 pound pressure swing
between warm and cold conditions indicate a good TXV. If a 10 to 15pound swing is
not present, replace TXV.
g) WRV Diagnosis: WRV is factory set and generally no adjustment is required.
IfWRV fails to open in freeze, check for proper refrigerant pressures. See "VIII.B.
Performance Data." If refrigerant pressures are correct and WRV does not open,
adjust or replace as needed. See "IV.C. Water Regulating Valve Adjustment
(water-cooled models)."
h) Freeze Termination Diagnosis: After 5 min. in freeze, disconnect CB K5 FS
connector. 15 sec. later appliance should switch out of the freeze cycle (15 second
delay after FS opens before terminating the freeze cycle). If appliance remains in
freeze longer than 15 sec. after FS removed, replace CB. If appliance switches with
FS removed but would previously not switch out of freeze with FS connected (long
freeze - 3 beep alarm), see "II.E. Float Switch Check and Cleaning."
Note: Normal freeze cycle will last 20 to 40 min. depending on model and conditions.
Cycle times and pressures should follow performance data provided in this
manual. See "VIII.B. Performance Data."
i) Short Freeze Cycle Diagnosis: Conrm water tank lls and overows during 1 min.
ll and harvest cycles. If not, check water supply lters, shut-off valve, WV screen.
Ifwater tank empties before 5 min. timer terminates and freeze cycle is short, check
that CV is not leaking by (water owing down the potable drain). If CV is leaking by,
remove and clean CV, replace rubber seat and spring if necessary. If water tank is
full, see "II.E. Float Switch Check and Cleaning" for erratic operating FS.
