I have a problem with trying to figure this out. We had a power outage on the 24th. Lost refrigerator, dish washer, microwave and alarm clock. Interior lights worked but that was all. I removed the control board form refrigerator replaced 2 blown cap's found out power supply was only putting out 0.25 v dc so I replaced that also Put it back together and now the vent motor and interior lights and light indicator for the lower drawers work. I still have no control panel power or lights on the panel. I went back and tested power going into and out of the power supply 120 in 25.72 DC volts out (the power supply info says 120 AC 12 v out) I have looking for DAYS trying to find a power flow chart for the control board (voltage at pin chart). Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am not the type of of person that likes to through parts at something hoping that fixes the problem. (I am a auto mechanic by trade)

Than you

Hi Mark,

Check the Pins on the display board for 12 Volts DC.

If you don't get 12 Volts DC, Then your control board is the culprit:

Hello Jake,

Thank you for the reply. In my picture I am looking @ P2, it has a jumper/bridge. If I am suppose to ck the wires going to display board from control board they go to P6 on mine.
1. ORG-BLK
2. TAN-BLK
3. BLK-WHT
If that is the case I am in trouble. No voltage. I do have DC voltage from RED To WHT-RED. From the power supply.
Hopefully there is a way I can repair the board myself IF I knew that needs to be replaced.
Thank you for you time and help with this thing.

Ok Mark,

Here's the wiring diagram for your motor below. Its kinda vague on the UI pins it says to check. But can see at the UI Control Box it marks PIN 1 at the top of the ribbon connector.

Hello Jake,

Thank you for the information you sent me. I wound up finding a person locally that took a look at the board. He replaced a chip and all went perfect. I learn something new everyday.
