SPECIFIC ERRORS AND ISSUES
-
The advanced diagnostic capabilities of the electronic controls utilized on the 1, 3, and 5 Class units allow for easy and thorough troubleshooting.
-
Navigation of the control is the key and is explained in the CONTROL OPERATION section of the manual, along with control button layout, control function descriptions,
a service mode menu and service menu selection explanations. -
Verification of temperature and thermistor performance can be identified by directly viewing thermistor readings in the service mode.
-
Included in this section are some diagnostic tips and of course, if additional help is required, please contact the U-Line Corp, “Customer Care Facility” at +1.800.779.2547 for assistance.
NORMAL OPERATING SOUNDS
- All models incorporate rigid foam insulated cabinets to provide high thermal efficiency and maximum sound reduction for its internal working components. Despite this technology, your model may make sounds that are unfamiliar.
- Normal operating sounds may be more noticeable because of the unit’s environment. Hard surfaces such as cabinets, wood, vinyl or tiled floors and paneled walls have a tendency to reflect normal appliance operating noises.
- Listed below are common refrigeration components with a brief description of the normal sounds they make.
NOTE : Your product may not contain all the components listed.
- Compressor : The compressor makes a hum or pulsing sound that may be heard when it operates.
- Evaporator : Refrigerant flowing through an evaporator may sound like boiling liquid.
- Condenser Fan : Air moving through a condenser may be heard.
- Automatic Defrost Drain Pan : Water may be heard dripping or running into the drain pan when the unit is in the defrost cycle.
- Solenoid Valves: An occasional clicking sound may be heard as solenoid valves are operated.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Concern | Potential Causes | Action |
---|---|---|

MAIN CONTROL
The main control board is very robust and is rarely the cause of system
issues. It is important to fully diagnose the board for any suspected failures
before attempting to remove the board for replacement or service. Follow the
guidelines below to fully test and diagnose the main control.
Power Fault
If the unit does not (or seems to not) power on, follow the flow chart below
to help diagnose the issue. Before begin-ning it is important to first verify
the unit is not simply set to sabbath mode.
CAUTION
Precautions must be taken while working with live electrical equipment. Be
sure to follow proper safety procedures while performing tests on live
systems.
PLUNGER SWITCH
A plunger switch is used to monitor door state. When the door is closed it
comes into contact with the plunger which closes a circuit which turns the
light and display off. When the door is open the plunger moves outward and
opens the circuit. If the door is left open for longer than 5 minutes the
switch will trigger an error code and set an audible warning.

CONTROL FUNCTION GUIDE
Showroom Mode
This mode is designed to show units in a display environment. When in this
mode the only functions will be the control and cabinet lights. The
compressor, fans, etc. will not operate. To enter/exit this mode hold the
light key and the power key for 5 seconds. The display will flash once and
beep and the degree symbol will begin to flash. When the degree symbol is
flashing the unit will allow the use of the control for demonstrations. The
unit can be left in this mode indefinitely.
Service Mode
This mode has options available for service diagnostics. To enter the mode
hold the hidden key for 10 seconds. The display will show “01”. When in this
mode use the up and down arrows to select the desired option. The LIGHT key is
the ENTER key and will initiate the function. If changing a setting, you must
press the LIGHT key again to retain the changed setting. To exit the service
mode scroll to option “00” and press the LIGHT key. After five minutes of not
touching any keys the mode will also exit automatically.
Thermistor
- Thermistors are used for various temperature readings.
- Thermistors provide reliable temperature readings using a resistance which varies based on surrounding temperatures. If a faulty thermistor is suspected it may be tested using an accurate ohmmeter.
- Both thermistors in the unit are identical. If a thermistor is suspected of being defective, the resistance can be verified. Place the thermistor in an ice water bath, the resistance should read 16.1k Ohms +/-5% on your meter.
- Thermistor connections must be kept clean. A thermistor connection that has become corroded can cause resistance values from the thermistor to change as they pass through a dirty connection to the board.
- It is for that reason that we apply dielectric grease to all of our thermistor connections. Dielectric grease will help to keep thermistor connections clean and dry.
- If you change a thermistor in the unit please re-apply dielectric grease to the connection.
- If you encounter a dirty thermistor connection, you should replace the thermistor and the thermistor harness.
- Thermistor error information can be found in the Control Operation – Service section.
- This unit has one thermistor.
Thermistor one (Zone)
Located along the right hand side wall. It is used to maintain the operating
temperature within that zone.
THERMISTOR FAILURE
Zone Thermistor
f the zone thermistor in the unit fails, the unit will continue to cool in a
backup mode (Self Preservation Mode) to preserve the integrity of the
contents. The unit will otherwise operate normally.
