Service Diagnosis: Controller Diagnostic Light Analysis
Problem or Symptom Possible Cause Probable Correction
Machine is off Bin is full, ice in cube port Use some ice
Power is off, check lights. If all lights are out, check power supply,
restore power if off
Bin thermostat is closed Check thermostat for ice on the bulb. If none,
check adjustment.
Transformer is open If all lights are out and there is power, check
transformer output for 24 vac
Unit has been switched off
Off lite is glowing Push and release Freeze button to restart unit.
Compressor will not start Not enough water or water not sensed.
Unit has Shut Down Check for Refrigeration or Water Error
Unit is off & Water
diagnostic light is ON
or BLINKING Water inlet valve
malfunction Check water diagnostic light, if it blinks 2
times and repeats, check the water inlet valve
for proper water flow.**
Water pump malfunction Check that pump hose is attached and if
pump is plugged in and working.
Water level not sensed or
not high enough Check harness from sensor.
Unit is off &
Refrigeration
diagnostic light is ON
or BLINKING Low discharge or long
freeze cycle If the Refrigeration light is glowing steadily,
there is a probable refrigeration problem
Harvest problem If the Refrigeration light blinks once and
repeats, look for a harvest problem.** This
also indicates that cubes were “sensed” by
the bin controls.
If the lite blinks 2 times and repeats, check for
a harvest error - no cubes sensed.
High Discharge Temp If the refrigeration diagnostic light blinks 3
times and then repeats, check for a reason for
high discharge temperatures.
Unit does not go into
harvest - exceeds
maximum freeze time Push and release Off button. Push and
release Freeze button. Check operation.
Push cube size float down and check
operation.
Exceeds maximum harvest
time Check for cause of long harvest cycle**
Unit runs and both
Diagnostic lites are ON Temperature sensors out
of range Replace the temperature sensor set (water
and discharge).
Same, but 1 light is on Reservoir temp. wrong Reset and check water temp and sensor.
* Machine may be reset by pushing and releasing the Off button, then pushing and releasing the Freeze
button. ** See following pages
