Why is the outdoor coil freezing up on my Electra Alpha 7 in heating mode?

  Matthew PorterSep 6, 2025
  If the outdoor coil of your Electra Air Conditioner is freezing up in heating mode, resulting in a poor heating effect, it could be due to a faulty outdoor thermistor, a faulty control cable, outdoor temperatures below design conditions, or a blocked outdoor unit air outlet. Replace the thermistor, repair the control cable, shut the unit off if the temperature is too low, or remove any obstructions from the air outlet.

  If your Electra Air Conditioner is only blowing air from the indoor fan but not cooling or heating, the outdoor fan motor may be faulty, or another issue may have caused the compressor overload protection to cut out. Replace the P.C.B. Also, check if the outdoor fan is blocked and remove any obstructions.

  If you're experiencing a partial or limited air supply at the indoor unit of your Electra Air Conditioner, it could be due to a lack of refrigerant, which may also cause a whistling noise and ice formation on the indoor unit coil in cooling mode. Charge the unit after localizing the leak.

  If there's no air supply at the indoor unit of your Electra Air Conditioner while the compressor is running, the indoor fan motor might be blocked or turning slowly, the indoor fan run capacitor might be faulty, or the motor windings could be shorted. Check the voltage and repair the wiring if necessary. Also, check if the fan wheel is tight enough on the motor shaft and tighten it if necessary.

  Shannon FritzAug 30, 2025
  If the compressor on your Electra Air Conditioner isn't starting, first check the voltage on the compressor terminals on the outdoor unit using an ammeter to see if there is correct voltage. If there's no voltage, replace the main P.C.B. If the voltage is low, repair the power supply. If the voltage is correct, replace the capacitor or the compressor. If there is still no voltage, then repair the electrical wiring between the indoor and outdoor units.
