Hi All
My DM2652 fridge stopped working in electric , works fine in gas. I watched the video on the element change because I thought that would have been the problem, not the case. I downloaded the diagnostic service manual and did a few electric checks,as follows:
1. checked 120V AC in
2. I hear my relay click when the fridge is turned on, then it clicks again to switch to DC because it thinks no AC available, opens gas solenoid
3. fuses are checked OK
4. heating element checked, approximately 44 ohms
5. I noticed that I have to wiggle the auto button a little at times to get the light to stay on
The one thing I see different from the manual is at the main terminal block. It says the control system will handle up to 6 AC volts on the DC line, and I have approximately 12. The manual says "If AC volts exceeds 6 on the incoming line the power source should be cleaned up" what does that mean? I am not sure if this is the problem or not.
