TROUBLE SHOOTING

HOW TO CHECK EACH PARTS

1. CHECK SUPPLY VOLTAGE
   Measure input voltage at cigar lighter socket of car.
   Rated voltage is DC 12V.

2. CHECK FUSE
   Check inductance of 8A fuse in DC Input plug.
   If there is no inductance, replace the fuse with new one.

3. CHECK INPUT VOLTAGE OF SWING MOTOR
   Measure input voltage of Swing Motor between input terminals (yellow and black wires).
   Input voltage AC 7-8 V…… Normal
   Frequency 52-53 Hz…….. Normal

4. CHECK RESISTAN CE OF SWING MOTOR
   Disconnect yellow wire of Swing Motor input terminals and measure resistance between the terminals.
   Resistance
   ∞Ω ……….. Open circuit at Swing Motor
   0.3.2 Ω ………… Short circuit
   0.39 2 Ω ………… Normal

5. CHECK OSCILLATOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE
   Disconnect yellow wire at Swing Motor terminals and measure oscillator output voltage.
   AC 4.5 V over…… Normal
   AC OV……………… Oscillator failure

6. CHECK FAN MOTOR
   If fan motor does not run under normal output voltage from oscillator. Measure resistance of the motor.
   Resistance
   100 K Ω ………… Normal
   ∞Ω…………………. Open circuit of fan motor

7. CHECK VARIABLE RESISTOR
   Disconnect 2-pin coupler and measure resistance by use of tester.
   Resistance

∞ Ω ……Open circuit

8. CHECK THERMISTER
   Disconnect 2-pin couler and measure resistance of thermister.
   Resiistance
   Approx. 2.5K Ω (at 25°C )…… Normal
   ∞ Ω ……………………………………….. Open circuit
