Cooling
Possible cause
Solution
Main power problems
X
X
Green status LED Off
Check line voltage circuit breaker and disconnect.
Check for line voltage between L1 and L2 on the contactor.
Check for 24 V a.c. between R and C on controller.
Check primary/secondary voltage on transformer.
HP fault - code 2
X
Reduced or no water flow in cooling
Check pump operation or valve operation/setting.
High pressure
Check water flow adjust to proper flow rate.
X
Water temperature out of range in cooling
Bring water temperature within design parameters.
X
Reduced or no airflow in heating
Check for dirty air filter and clean or replace.
Check fan motor operation and airflow restrictions.
Dirty air coil - construction dust etc.
External static too high.
X
Air temperature out of range in heating
Bring return air temperature within design parameters.
