ISB Electrical attended a Westinghouse side-by-side refrigerator repair job in Molendinar where the customer reported that the refrigerator had completely stopped cooling.
The display panel was blank, the compressor was not operating and both the refrigerator and freezer compartments had lost cooling.
The customer noticed that food was warming up and the refrigerator appeared completely inactive. No temperatures were displayed on the front control panel and there were no signs of compressor operation.
We checked the incoming power supply, control circuits, display operation, compressor starting circuit and the main electronic control system.
During testing, the compressor remained completely cold and was not attempting to start. The display module also showed no information, indicating a possible control system failure.
Testing confirmed that the main PCB located near the compressor had failed.
Because the main control board was not operating correctly, power was not being supplied to the compressor system and the display remained inactive.
The electronic control system was diagnosed and the faulty main PCB was identified as the cause of the refrigerator failure. The customer was advised regarding replacement of the control board to restore normal refrigerator operation.
Modern Westinghouse refrigerators rely heavily on electronic control boards. When the main PCB fails, cooling, display functions and compressor operation can all stop simultaneously.
