Assuming it was the Freezer temp sensor that was bad due to difference in temp from the panel to actual, I returned to the study. The function was at readout 21, that's a proper freezer temp readout. maybe not the freezer sensor. this morning I will check the temps again, and start the discussion module of this project named - drum roll (I love to name stuff) - LED CODE PROPAGANDA -
The fridge uses the individual LEDs in the 7 led readout (7 leds make each individual number) where A is the top, D is the bottom, and G is the middle, and B and C correspond to the right side, and E and F when clockwise. EXAMPLE- Assuming a code of double digit 1 in digit 1 of the double digit 1 and there are 2 double digits... A digit light that shows an " h " might be a code of A, B, D But if patterns are deciphered as huge tuples, this could be a code of C, E, F, G. These codes are graphed in the service manual as what each individual LED in the digit represents (ROFLMAO or ROTFL) Maybe the first double digit represents the F digits, F-10 and F-1, and the second double digit represents the R digits, R-10 and R-1 freezer and refrigerator respectfully.)
The service manual says and I quote... now this is chart data in a table row....
"N0.23 --- Normal --- 'e' and 'f' in the lowest order digits of the R compartment, and the LEDs are all turned off --- When the external temperature is within range of 22 degrees centigrade ~ 33 degrees centigrade."
So I am assuming that "R compartment" is the R double digits, and the "lowest order digits of the R compartment" is the R-1 digit.
and all the lights should be off. but after closer study it actually says when the temperature outside the fridge is normal "e" and "f" are off. but there again you are hitting and missing... fairly confusing bit of code huh.
Complete decypher?
'No.23, is normal, and lights e and f in the fourth digit stack are both off when the external temperature is within 22c to 33c'
But they are both on.
The way it's written is typical of the 1970's street jargon of space and drugs to fill it with. Reminds me of a novella writer trying to introduce a rocket scientist.
