Does L9 blink after
reconnecting to the power?
When
operation starts, is the high
and low pressure difference greater
than 0.2 MPa?
Unbalanced
inverter output voltage (±5 V
is normal). After stabilizing the inverter,
is the inverter output pressure
measurable?
Disconnect the compressor from the
inverter. Use power transistor to check
codes based on maintenance codes.
Nonconforming pressure
balance. Check the
refrigerant system.
Replace the outdoor unit
main PCB (A1P).
Reset and then restart
the unit.
Check the compressor according to
diagnosis procedure for compressor
abnormal noises/vibrations and
operation conditions.
