WARNING
Checking the Fan Intelligent Power
Module (IPM)
1. Shut off main power. After main power is shut off, wait at least ten
(10) minutes until the fan PCB DC voltage is discharged.

Table 66: Checking the Fan IPM.
2. Disconnect the DC and the U, V, W fan connectors.
3. Set the multi-tester to diode resistance mode.
4. Measured value must be the same as shown below.
5. If the measured value between the P and N terminals of the IPM
LVORZȍWKHIDQ3&%QHHGVWREHUHSODFHGEHFDXVHWKH,30
is damaged.
6. If the measured value is different than what is listed in the tables,
the fan PCB needs to be replaced.
After switching off the main power supply and verifying that the DC volt-
age was discharged, wait for at least ten (10) minutes before checking
the electrical components in the control box. There is risk of electric
shock, physical injury or death.
