Refrigerator Overfreezing
1. With gas supply off, hook up
your U-tube or gas manometer
as shown.
2. A part which can cause this
symptom is the combination
control.
3. Remove the capillary tube
from the fins. Place a cup of
ice water on the top shelf of
the refrigerator. Immerse the
capillary tube in the ice water
as shown in Figure 3.30.
4. If the pressure readings are not
within the specifications as
shown in the Gas Pressure chart,
replace the combination control.
5. Another possible cause for
overfreezing is that the capil-
lary tube is not properly at-
tached to the evaporator fins.
6. The capillary tube must be at-
tached to the 5th fin as shown
in Figure 3.31.
The Refrigerator Will Not
Operate or Cool on AC
USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN
WORKING ON THE AC ELECTRI-
CAL COMPONENTS OF THE REF-
RIGERATOR. BEFORE REPLAC-
ING ANY ELECTRICAL COMPO-
NENTS, DISCONNECT THE AC
POWER SOURCE TO THE REF-
RIGERATOR. ELECTRICAL VOLT-
AGE CAN CAUSE SEVERE IN-
JURY OR DEATH.
1. If the refrigerator is not function-
ing on AC, the first step is to
check incoming supply voltages
as shown in Figure 3.32. The
minimum is 108 Volts AC.
2. Once you have established a
good AC supply voltage, then
remove the 5 Amp fuse and
check for continuity as shown
in Figure 3.33. If reading is
good, reinstall fuse and pro-
ceed to next step.
