Parts Involved
How to Fix
- 1
1. Enter self-diagnostic mode via Engineer Mode (select '3')
- 2
2. Measure voltage at MAIN PCB CN51 pin 5 to pin 7 — normal range: 1.0V to 4.5V
- 3
3. Disconnect CN51 and measure resistance between pins 5 and 7 — compare to temperature table
- 4
4. Check MICOM input at IC01 MICOM pin 3 and resistor R352
- 5
5. If sensor tests normal, replace MAIN PCB
