Mechanical Disassembly 3-2) Freezer Disassembly Door Bin in Freezer The door bins allow storage of perishable items. 1. Push the bin up and slide it out. Freezer Door Light Switch This switch is located in the left-hand portion of the freezer and sends a signal to the processor.
Mechanical Disassembly Ice Dispenser & Ice Maker The ice dispenser is located in the upper portion of the freezer. This assembly stores ice made by the icemaker and dispenses ice. 1. Lift the ice bucket up ① and slide out the ice dispenser assembly ②.
1. Remove the screw and the light cover. Evaporator Fan Motor The evaporator fan is located in the middle rear of refrigerator. This fan circulates cold air in the refrigerator. 1. Remove the fan spring, and than remove fan and protector motor.
Mechanical Disassembly Evaporator in Freezer Evaporator is located in the bottom of freezer to produce cold air driven across the evaporator coils. 1. Take off the ductwork in Freezer. 2. Disconnect the wire connector (Heater, Bimental, and Thermistor). 3. Desolder the inlet and outlet tubes. 4.
Mechanical Disassembly 3-3) Machine Compartment Disassembly Machine Compartment & & Electric Box 1. Disconnect the power cord of the refrigerator. 2. Remove the fixed screws (6) of compressor cover. 3. Slide up and take off the compressor cover to see the machine compartment.
5. OPERATION PRINCIPLES BY PARTS OF CIRCUIT 5-1) POWER Terminal ● Vcc(DC 5V) << BLDC +12V(DC 12V) When turned on, rectified AC voltage which is stepped down on 2nd transformer flows between ① and ③ at about AC 15V, goes through the diode D101 and D104 is changed to DC, and provide constant 12V. It provides 5V to MICOM and other circuits via regulator REG102 (MC7805ACT), and make entire PCB operate.

OPERATION PRINCIPLES BY PARTS OF CIRCUIT 5-3) RESET CIRCUIT RESET Circuit allows the whole program to go back to the initial setting by initializing parts such as the RAM in MICOM with the power supply into MICOM or with an instant power failure. Upon the power supply, the reset terminal voltage becomes "LOW"...

OPERATION PRINCIPLES BY PARTS OF CIRCUIT 5-5) DOOR SWITCH DETECTON CIRCUIT 1) If R-Door is opened, the contact point of the door switch (4-3) becomes open, and the current of PCB line comes through R404 and R405 and provides 5 volt which is recognized as door is opened, and turn off the fan at different load.

OPERATION PRINCIPLES BY PARTS OF CIRCUIT 5-6) TEMP SENSING CIRCUIT 1) Sensor uses a thermistor which has a temp coefficient of negative resistance and controls resistance. When the heat goes up, the resistance gets down and vice versa. R302, 4, 6, 9 and C301~C303, C305 are parts for noise prevention but they are not related to temp sensing characteristics.

OPERATION PRINCIPLES BY PARTS OF CIRCUIT 5-7) DAMPER CIRCUIT 1) The temperature of R-room is controlled by opening and closing of damper with stepping motor, supplying & blocking cold air. 2) TA7774P (IC07) operates the damper. TA7774P is the driver IC only for step motor. If the regular signal is provided to TA7774P from Micom, send combined signal to Quad-Polar step motor to rotate on certain direction.

OPERATION PRINCIPLES BY PARTS OF CIRCUIT 2) DISPLAY OPERATION Like the signal diagram below, Micom sends “ high ” signal through MICOM 6 terminals of NO #1→ 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 6 for 2ms every 12ms. This signal goes to output terminal via input terminal of IC5 (KID65783AP or TD62783AP).

OPERATION PRINCIPLES BY PARTS OF CIRCUIT 5-9) Load Control Circuit 1) Main PCB processes most of the load control for electronic refrigerators. 2) Compressor, F-Room, defrost heater, and other functions are controlled with relay. 3) For example, to operate compressor, MICOM 29 pin outputs high (5V) signal which goes into IC3 Pin #4. The IC3 pin NO 4 plays the same role as the base of NPN TR.
