How to Fix

  1. 1

    Check door gasket for damage. If gasket is damaged, replace the door gasket.

  2. 2

    Measure heater resistance at CON9 pins 5~13 (Test Mode 1). Expected 42~500 ohm for a good heater.

  3. 3

    If heater resistance is out of range (42~500 ohm), the Fuse-M is open. Replace Fuse-M.

  4. 4

    Check defrost sensor resistance at CON9 pins (linked pins). Expected ~22k ohm or match temperature table. If open or 0 ohm, replace the defrost sensor.

  5. 5

    Enter Test Mode 3 (press test button 3 times on Main PCB). Measure voltage at CON9 pins 5~13. Expected 112~116V.

  6. 6

    If voltage is not 112~116V in Test Mode 3, check input voltage first. If input voltage is OK, replace the Main PCB.

  7. 7

    Enter Test Mode 1. Measure voltage at CON9 pins 5~13. Expected 0V (heater off).

  8. 8

    If voltage is not 0V in Test Mode 1, replace the Main PCB.

  9. 9

    If all checks pass, replace the refrigerator.
