CHECK AND TEST 1

Step 1

Connect damper terminal to terminals inside fridge.

Step 2

Unscrew cover of mainboard with a cross- head screwdriver.

Step 3

Offer signal to dampers from terminal in PCB area (between “A+” & “B+” or “A-” & “B-”)

Step 4

An oscilloscope should display a square wave signal.

Step 5

See if door of damper opens gradually.

DIAGNOSIS 1

PROCEDURE 2

Step 1

Unscrew with 6mm Cross-head driver.

Step 2

Remove plastic cover of damper.

Step 3

Lift damper out of air duct in foam.

CHECK AND TEST 2

Step 1

Use a standard signal producer to supply square wave to damper from terminal in fridge area.

DIAGNOSIS 2

CHECK AND TEST 3

Step 1

In duct area, check if terminal is pushed into final position.

Step 2

Check if terminal is filled with foam or not.

IF YES, please use a needle to clean and remove the foam.

TIPS DURING INSTALLATION PROCEDURES FOR FRIDGE AIR DUCT.

Tip 1

Connect the terminals.


Tip 2

Push terminals into place, then move wires to prevent crushing of wires with edge of air duct.


Tip 3

When reinstalling the air duct, first insert positive shaft into the negative hole.


Tip 4

Then, fasten the clasp on top using the same method.


DIAGNOSIS 6

Step 1

Power on the appliance, then open the door and press the mechanical switch pin, put your hand in front of fridge air duct outlet to verify.
