Qualified technician handoff: stop before live electrical testing, sealed-system refrigeration work, compressor service, or protected-compartment access unless a qualified technician is handling the work.

  • Low-voltage supply reads zero or significantly out of expected range: escalate_to_power_supply_diagnostic
  • Display connector area shows signs of heat damage: stop_and_hand_off
  • If the low-voltage supply reads zero or significantly out of expected range, you must escalate this to a qualified technician.
  • If the display connector area shows signs of heat damage, stop troubleshooting and hand off to a qualified technician.
