When abnormality indication starts again
Check the outdoor compressor temperature sensor:
• Plug out connector from the outdoor unit PCB
• Measure the resistance of the outdoor compressor
temperature sensor
For safety reason and to prevent component
breakdown, always switch off the power
before remove and connect the component.
Is the measured resistance of the outdoor compressor
temperature sensor matches the value specified in its
characteristic chart?
•
Defect in outdoor compressor temperature sensor
• Replace the outdoor compressor temperature sensor
•
Defect in outdoor unit PCB
• Replace the outdoor unit PCB
Check the connector connection:
• Turn off the power
• Check the connector connection
Is the connector connection normal?
YES
•
Connector poor contact
•
Correct the connection
NO
