Airflow Damper The fresh food compartment receives chilled air via an electronic damper that is positioned at the top rear of the fresh food compartment. The damper is controlled by the main control board and when open, allows the evaporator fan to push chilled air from the evaporator into the fresh food compartment. To Remove the Damper 1. Remove the light cover. 3. Remove the Styrofoam section covering the damper. 4. Disconnect the damper wiring connector. Damper Screws 2. Remove 4 Phillips s

Evaporator Fan Evaporator Fan Adjustment Airflow The position of the fan blade in relation to the shroud is critical. Refer to evaporator fan adjustment graphic for specifications. If the fan shorts, it may damage the main control board. If the resistor on the main control board is burnt, you must replace the fan and the board (see 5/16 photo). +/- 0.03 The evaporator fan utilizes a permanent magnet, 4-pole, DC motor that can operate at three different speeds: high, medium, and low (medium an

speed and medium-speed operation. When operating in low and medium speeds, voltage is sent in pulses (much like a duty cycle) as opposed to an uninterrupted flow. This pulsing of 12.6 VDC produces effective voltage being received at the motor, which is the equivalent to a reduction in voltage. Fan speed will be selected and maintained by the control board regulating the length and frequency of the 12.6 VDC pulse. One complete revolution of the motor is comprised of all 4 poles.

White Wire (DC Common) The white wire is the DC common wire used for testing. During repairs, DC polarity must be observed. Reversing the DC polarity will cause a shorted motor and/or board. Red Wire (Supply) Each motor uses an internal electronic controller to operate the motor. Supply voltage from the main control board remains at a constant 12 VDC. Blue Wire (Feedback/RPM) The blue wire feeds rpm (speed) information to the main control board, allowing the board to maintain consistent fan s
