Normal Operation - GE Electronic Icemaker Technical Service Manual

While in the harvest cycle in the service mode,
the heater will remain on for a minimum of 20
seconds. The water fill cycle will initiate the
first fill (5.1 seconds) without waiting for the mold
to "prechill". Only one water fill occurs during
the service mode, whether the thermistor has
reached 39.2°F (4°C) or not. The icemaker will
exit the service diagnostic test on its own and
enter the normal freeze cycle.
NOTE: When replacing an icemaker, the Power
On test will probably occur since the mold
temperature will be above 50°F (10°C). While
in the power on test, the Service Diagnostic test
can be initiated and will override the power on
test mode.
