1. If the EEV open position does not change, output phase will be off.
2. If the output phase is different or continuously on, the motor will start vibrating.
EEV Valve Operation
• At power on, open position signal is 2,000 pulses output, and valve
position is set to "a" (see left). When the valve operates properly,
noise and vibration will not occur. If the valve is closed, noise will
be heard.
• Noise from EEV can be confirmed by touching the EEV surface
with a screw driver and listening.
• If liquid refrigerant is present in EEV, noise will be lower.
