    honestly, you have some of the best videos on ICE MACHINE repair. Please keep them coming. I fix these machines but hate those long Manitowoc seminars. Your method takes less time and explain it better. Same with Hoshizaki machines. Thanks again -

    I tried the tap test on the back of the probe, and it only jumped up to around 200-300, I see that’s way to low but does it matter that I did the back side and not the nipple? Tech support had me change the probe with a spare, but the unit was still making a 1/4-3/8 bridge and not braking. When the water started covering the probe, it stayed down around 80-90. 2 sensors with the same reading, could that be a bad board or just 2 bad sensors? I did have 3.3 vdc coming out of the board also
    Also thanks for the video, It was very educational!

    • @IceMachine411
      @IceMachine411  Месяц назад +1

      Sorry for the delayed response. Hmmm. I’m glad you spoke with tech support because they are the best resource available. I’m not comfortable saying it’s a bad board because they’re expensive and I don’t want to be wrong. 3.25-3.35 VDC is what the board should be putting out so it probably good.

    Thanks for sharing. Could you please advise if top 4-5 rows are thin compared to the bottom rows is it low refirgerant symptom or could be other causes as well?

    • @IceMachine411
      @IceMachine411  2 месяца назад

      Could be a charge issue. Could also be a TXV issue. Hard to say unless I’m looking at it myself.

    • @IceMachine411
      @IceMachine411  2 месяца назад

      I would assume not a water issue. As long as you’re not running out of water by the end of freeze and the machine isn’t constantly adding new water to the trough.

      Hot gas valve. Bin switch. It could be a lot of things. Manitowoc tech support will walk you through the diagnosis process over the phone.

    What is the symptoms of faulty ice sensor probe?

    • @IceMachine411
      @IceMachine411  3 месяца назад

      There are multiple. Number one would be that that it doesn’t sense the ice. Number two would be that it senses ice that isn’t there.

    • @IceMachine411
      @IceMachine411  4 месяца назад +1

      I don’t think it matters. The manual doesn’t say anything about that. Just that it rises by 3000 from its base line.
