4-2-5. If defrost does not operate (F,R DEF Heater)
R DEF ERROR
F DEF ERROR
Start
Are the all deforst
heater normal?
Check the bimetal, heater
disconnection, wiring connection etc.
Refer to self-diagnostic
function in the manual
Replace the
applicable sensor
manual operation for a certain time
Manual defrosting of fresh food
and freezer compartments
operate simultaneously.
If Energy Saver + Fridge Key are pressed simultaneously for 8
seconds and then select any key, 3rd test mode(manual
defrosting) will be operated.
Is the temperature of
defrost sensor lower
than 53.6
℉
(12°C)?
Is defrost sensor by
self-diagnostic normal?
Is power applied to
each defrost heaters?
Is connection terminal of
MAIN PBA part normal?
Recheck the applicable
sensor.
Normal
Repair connection terminal
Reference
If defrost sensor
temperatures of fresh food and
freezer compartments are higher than
50
℉
(10
℃
), 53.6
℉
(12
℃
) by the
heating from heater, heating would be
finished and will return to cooling
operation after a pause.
Check bimetal, heater itself,
disconnection etc.
Replace failure Relay or
replace PBA ASS'Y
Does the system return
to cooling operation after heating for
specified time?
