No fan operation -
constant airflow motor

No fan operation signal
Check for 24 VAC between "G" and
"C". Check all wiring connections.
Make sure that the thermostat
connection plug is securely
connected.
Loose wiring
Check all wiring connections at
motor and control box. Check that
power and control harnesses are
securely connected.
Interface board
problems
Make sure that the interface board
is not damged and that all DIP
switches are in the proper
configuration (refer to the blower
performance tables).
Faulty motor
Check supply voltage to the motor.
Check that all motor wires are
secure. Move the "TEST" DIP switch
to "ON" and the other switches to
"OFF" on the "ADJUST" switch block
on the interface board - the motor
should run at 70% torque whrn "G"
is called. With power off spin the
motor shaft - noise, resistance or
uneven motion can be signs of
motor failure.

Reversing valve
solenoid energized
Faulty solenoid
Check that the reversing valve
solenoid is receiving 24 VAC. If so,
check the resistance of the solenoid
- an open circuit may indicate a
burned out solenoid.
Reversing valve
solenoid not
energized
Miswired/faulty
thermostat
Check that the reversing valve
theromstat wire is connected to the
"O" terminal of the thermostat.
Check for a contact closure
between "O" and "R".
Loose wire on "O"
terminal
Check that the wires from the
thermostat to the unit are securely
connected and that the wires from
the electrical box to the reversing
valve are connected.

Replace filter.
Fan speed too low
Consult blower performance table
and increase fan speed if possible.

Consult blower performance table
and increase fan speed if possible.

Check unit capacity vs. water
temperature.
Air leakage
Leaky duct work
Inspect duct work.
Loss of refrigeration
capacity
Low refrigerant
Check refrigerant pressures with
gauge set.
