How to Fix

  1. 1

    1. Reset the unit and enter Test Mode 1 (push test button 1 time).

  2. 2

    2. Measure condenser fan motor supply voltage at CON4 Pin 24 to Pin 23. Expected: 11.4 to 12.6 V. If absent or out of range, replace Main PCB.

  3. 3

    3. Check visually if condenser fan is rotating. If not rotating, proceed to step 4.

  4. 4

    4. Measure fan feedback voltage at CON4 Pin 22 to Pin 23. If reading is 0 V or 5 V (stuck), fan motor or circuit is faulty.

  5. 5

    5. Check fan motor mechanically: rotate by hand. If sticky or bound, replace the condenser fan motor.

  6. 6

    6. Measure fan PWM voltage at CON4 Pin 21 to Pin 23. If reading is 0 V or 5 V (stuck), replace Main PCB.

  7. 7

    7. If fan rotates freely but no feedback signal, replace the condenser fan motor.

  8. 8

    8. If all voltages are normal and fan rotates, explain to customer (intermittent condition).
