ohmmeter.

and also the Control unit is divided into two units, CPU unit and Power unit, and troubleshooting by
replacement is described according to the symptoms indicated.

a) When touching the pads, a certain pad produces no signal at all.
b) When touching a number pad, two figures or more are displayed.
c) When touching the pads, sometimes a pad produces no signal.
2. Control Panel

KEY UNIT TEST
If the display fails to clear when the STOP/CLEAR pad is depressed, first verify the ribbon cable is
making good contact, verify that the stop switch operates properly; that is the contacts are closed when
the door is closed and open when the door is open. If the stop switch is good, disconnect the flat ribbon
cable that connects the key unit to the control unit and make sure the stop switch is closed (either close
the door or short the stop switch connecter). Use the Key unit matrix indicated on the control panel
schematic and place a jumper wire between the pins that correspond to the STOP/CLEAR pad making
momentary contact. If the control unit responds by clearing with a beep the key  unit is faulty and must
be replaced. If the control unit does not respond, it is a faulty and must be replaced. If a specific pad
does not respond, the above method may be used (after clearing the control unit) to determine if the
control unit or key pad is at fault.
