# Perlick UIX: the display cannot reach the control

UIX is the G5 display communication alarm.

## What UIX actually means.

UIX is the G5 display communication alarm. Perlick asks you to reset power with the rocker switch or the breaker; if the alarm continues, service is needed. The unit may keep cooling in the meantime, but you cannot rely on the display.

Perlick wine cooler display

What to do when UIX shows on the wine cooler

### Kind of code Control board and display

The electronics that read the sensors and switch the cooling, the fans and the lights have reported a problem with themselves or lost touch with the display. A loose ribbon cable, moisture that reached the touch strip or a brief power surge is checked before a board is condemned. Boards and displays are usually specific to one model, so the number on the label matters here more than anywhere.

### Usually leads to Wine cooler control board and display repair

Repairing the electronic control and the touch display that run a wine cooler, from a blank screen or a code to keys that will not respond or a cabinet that will not start.

### Shows up as Wine Cooler Error Code

A wine cooler error code appears as letters and digits on the display, a flashing temperature, dashes where a number should be or a blinking symbol, sometimes with an alarm tone and sometimes while the cabinet stays perfectly cool.

### Make Perlick

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Perlick's own guidance for UIX on its wine coolers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Turn the unit off and on with the master rocker switch behind the toe kick, or at the breaker.

02

Check the wine temperature with your own thermometer.

03

If UIX continues, book a visit.

### Still there?

### What not to do

UIX is not a temperature or cooling alarm. It is also different from MEM, which Perlick lists as a main control memory problem.

## Questions about UIX.

### Can I clear UIX myself?

Turn the unit off and on with the master rocker switch behind the toe kick, or at the breaker. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### How do I reach the power switch on a Perlick wine reserve?

Behind the louvered toe kick at the bottom front. Perlick says to pull on each side of the toe kick to remove it.

### Is my Perlick still cooling with UIX showing?

Possibly, since the control board runs separately from the display. Check with a thermometer.

### What usually causes UIX?

Usually a poor connection in the display cable or a display that is failing. Testing on site tells which.
