Is the supply voltage unstable
with big fluctuation?
Is the supply voltage too low
with overload?
The fan is abnormal? Fan
speed is too low or fan doesn’t rotate
Measure the
current of the main board
with a clamp ampere meter. Is the
current higher than the value of the
overcurrent protection?
Is there blockage inside
the system? (Filth blockage, ice plug,
greasy blockage
Is the compressor running
abnormally? Is there abnormal sound or oil
leakage; is the temperature of the shell
too high, etc.?
Is the indoor / outdoor
heat exchanger too dirty,or are the air inlet
and outlet blocked?
