TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Water is automatically supplied to the Ice Maker depending on temperature & time condition and Ice Maker Dispenses
cubed or crushed ice.
2. Power is applied to the one end of wires. Be careful when disassembling and shall refer to its exploded diagram in any
case.
3. Ice Maker operation shall be checked after pressing the Ice Maker testing switch.
(Freezer Ice Maker) It is not possible to check when the power is disengaged.
4. We recommend that TWO PEOPLE check the PCB and Ice Maker because they are located at front and rear side each.
5. Be careful! The Ice Maker Heater can cause personal injury like burn.
6. Ice maker could operate not only genuine rotate but also reverse rotate, so it is not out of order that reverse rotate.
4-2-4. If Ice Maker does not operate
Checking Method of ICE Maker Voltage
With typical PCB Ground REG1 Heater Sink and
1) Test Switch operation (press selected) : CN75-”5” (Black) shall be DC 0V.
Test Switch ready ; CN75-”5” (Black) shall be less than DC 5V.
Checking Method of ICE Maker Voltage
With typical PCB Ground REG1 Heater Sink and
2) IC02 MICOM #39 voltage ; Ready(0V) Rotate (4.9V) Before
complete(4.9V) Return(0V)
* MICOM #39 voltage is same as Connector CN90-”7”(Purple)
3) IC02 MICOM #38 voltage ; Ready(0V) Rotate (0V) Before
complete(4.9V) Return(0V)
* MICOM #38 voltage is same as Connector CN90-”6”(Blue)

Start
1) Replace the Ice Maker Kit
2) Check/Replace the Main PCB
input signal
(Micom IC01 Pin #37 - “0V”)
Does Ice Maker
rotate when pressing the Ice Maker
testing switch(over 1.5 sec)?
No
1) Check the wiring connections.
2) Replace Ice Maker Kit
3) Replace MAIN PCB
Is the input voltage of IC01
MICOM #38,#39 normal?
No
1) Replace the Water Valve
* Refer to the operation
condition of Water Valve
2) Replace the Main PCB
Is the water supplied in 6
minutes (After sensing ice bucket
fully)?
No
1) Repair the Ice Maker Sensor
* Refer to the solution “If Ice
Maker Sensor has trouble”
No trouble with PCB and temperature sensor,
Check the bad wiring connections.
Is the Ice Maker Sensor unit normal?
No

Check the ICE Maker Heater & Motor Resistance
1) Measuring the Ice Maker Heater
resistance values
Resistance value : 91(364)Ohm7%
CW/CCW Resistance value : 200KOhm ± 30%
CW : 13P #11(White) and CN70#9(Red)
CCW : 13P #13(Pink) and CN70#9(Red)
CN70#11(Gray) - #1(Black)
