Troubleshooting - Procedure E

Verifying Thermistor Operation

To measure the resistance of the evaporator thermistor, com-

plete the following procedure.

Turn the temperature control to the "Off" position.1.

Disconnect the 3-pole connector. Refer to Figure 7.2.

Measure the resistance across the two pins. Refer to3.

Figure 8.

Check the evaporator thermistor by measuring the tem-4.

perature and resistance of the thermistor.

Refer to Table 1 for a listing of acceptable resistance

ranges.

NOTE: In general, 1.6K - 29KΩ = good thermistor.

∞Ω = defective thermistor. An open thermistor

will stop normal compressor operation. Replace

the defective thermistor.

Troubleshooting - Procedure F

Insufcient Cooling

NOTE: Check input voltage before proceeding. Refer to

Procedure A.

If the compressor runs continuously, do the following:

Check the voltage across the fan leads. There will■

be a slight voltage reading even if the fan isn't opera-

tional. The fan will only operate when the compressor

is running, and the ambient temperature is sufcient to

engage the fan. The operational voltage of the fan is

between 17 and 22VDC. If this is present at the leads

and the fan is not running, replace the fan.

CAUTION: When servicing the fan, do not

short the wires. Shorting the wires will damage

the power supply.

Make sure that the ventilation vents are not blocked.■

Refer to Procedure I.

Make sure that the auto shut-off device is operational.■

Refer to Procedure H.

If the reason for insufcient cooling is not found, start ■

with Procedure B.

Replace the cooling unit if:

The compressor is hot to the touch and not vibrating.■

The compressor vibrates but there is no cooling.■

Troubleshooting - Procedure G

Refrigerator is Too Cold

If the refrigerator is too cold, do the following:

Adjust the temperature control to a lower setting. Num-■

ber 1 is the warmest setting; number 5 is the coldest.

Make sure that the thermistor is securely mounted to■

the evaporator plate.

If you cannot determine a cause, refer to Procedure E.■

Troubleshooting - Procedure H

Auto Shut-Off Device

NOTE: Only the 12/24V DC and DE/Truck models are

equipped with the auto shut-off device within the

power supply.

Operating the Shut-Off Device

To protect the cooling unit from overheating, the refrigerator

will automatically shut-off when the ambient air temperature is

approximately 110°F (43°C). If shut-off occurs, the refrigerator

will sound an intermittent alarm tone. To stop the alarm, the

refrigerator must be restarted using the following procedure:

Turn the temperature control counterclockwise to the "Off"1.

position.

Turn the temperature control to the desired setting.2.

NOTE: The refrigerator will not restart until the ambient

conditions allow for normal operation.

NOTE: To test the shut-off device's functionality, heat the

device with a heat gun. Refer to Figure 9.

Troubleshooting - Procedure I

Proper Ventilation

Ventilation is necessary for the correct operation of the refrig-

erator. Good ventilation also increases the life of the refrigera-

tor's cooling system. The current models are equipped with

built-in ventilation systems that draw cooler air through the

lower intake vent. This air is then circulated over the cooling

unit to remove excess heat from the cooling system. The heat-

ed air is then rejected through the upper vent. If this airow is

blocked or decreased, the refrigerator will not cool correctly.

CAUTION: Do not block the vents by closet

or cabinet doors.

Reducing the vent area can cause the following:

Shortened life of the refrigeration-cooling unit.■

Poor cooling performance of the refrigerator.■

Continuous operation of the refrigerator.■

Fast battery discharge.■

Voiding the refrigerator warranty.■

Troubleshooting - Quick Reference

Quick Reference Troubleshooting Steps

Check for supply voltage at the rear of the refrigerator.1.

Turn the temperature control to the "On" position.2.

The operating voltage should be between 10.5V and

32V DC. There will be some variation in these readings

depending on the supply voltage.

Check the compressor voltage between points A and B.3.

Voltage should be between 15V - 25V AC. Refer to Figure

10.

If voltage is not within range, refer to Procedure C.

With the refrigerator power on, take an Ohm reading (1.44.

- 3.5Ω) at the compressor between points A and B. Refer

to Figure 11.

If the Ohm reading is not within range, refer to Procedure

With the refrigerator power off, and the lead removed5.

from point "A", take an Amp reading (1.6 - 3.3 Amps) at

the black wire with the rubber boot. Refer to Figure 12. If

amperage is not within range, refer to Procedure D.
