How do i isolate transformer inline?
So we just fixed our EWT806 after it suffering the dreaded EF fault... The problem... Too higher mains voltage coming into the house! Albiet within specification from the supplier, the Electrolux EWT806 doesn't like anything around 250 volts! Obviously a poor design on the control board which is unable to accept a wide supply voltage!
Solution, isolation transformer inline with the machine. Now it runs like a dream!
Hello Suzanne, thank you for your post!
I understand that your Electrolux refrigerator is displaying an error code of "SY EF". An "SY EF" code stands for an evaporator fan circuit failure. This could also be a miscommunication with your refrigerator and I would advise performing a reset on your refrigerator. You can reset it by disconnecting the power plug from the outlet for roughly ten minutes. If that does not help correct your issue you may need to replace your main control board or a wiring harness. For proper disassembly and repair of your refrigerator I would recommend having a professional technician for proper diagnosis and repair. I hope this information is helpful. -Matt
Hi Valmon Va, I appreciate your post!
I see that your Electrolux refrigerator is displaying the error code "EF" and you have replaced multiple parts. "EF" stands for evaporator fan circuit failure this could be a possible problem with the control board, evaporator fan, or wiring between each component. I would suggest consulting with a professional technician for a diagnosis because they have available tools to review each component and assure proper voltage to each piece. I hope this is helpful. -Matt
Hi daneilb101 - Typically error code SY EF indicates that the refrigerator has detected an evaporator fan circuit failure. Contact a professional to move forward accurately. The wiring between the main control board and evaporator fan will need to be check and diagnose. Depending on the diagnoses the main control board may need replacing.
