How to Fix

  1. 1

    Check for loose connection at CON101 on the Display PCB.

  2. 2

    Measure voltage between Red and Blue wires at CON101: should be approximately 12V DC.

  3. 3

    If not 12V: Check hinge wiring for loose connection — if still not 12V, replace Main PCB.

  4. 4

    Measure voltage between Blue and Yellow wires at CON101: if 0V or 5V, replace the Display PCB.

  5. 5

    If voltage is within normal range: Measure voltage between Blue and Purple wires at CON101.

  6. 6

    If 0V or 5V on Blue-to-Purple: Replace the Main PCB.

  7. 7

    If all Display-side voltages normal: Check CON5 on Main PCB — measure voltage between Blue and Yellow wires at CON5.

  8. 8

    If 0V or 5V on CON5 Blue-to-Yellow: Replace the Display PCB.

  9. 9

    Measure voltage between Blue and Purple at CON5 (Drawer Model): if 0V or 5V, replace the Main PCB.

  10. 10

    If all voltages pass: Explain findings to customer — possible intermittent wiring issue at hinge area.
