7. Abnormal Sound and Vibration
Possible causes
Discriminating method (air conditioner status)
Troubleshooting
When turn on or turn off the unit,
the panel and other parts will
expand and theres abnormal sound
Theres the sound of "PAPA"
Normal phenomenon. Abnormal sound will
disappear after a few minutes.
When turn on or turn off the unit,
theres abnormal sound due to flow
of refrigerant inside air conditioner
Water-running sound can be heard
Normal phenomenon. Abnormal sound will
disappear after a few minutes.
Foreign objects inside the indoor
unit or therere parts touching
together inside the indoor unit
Theres abnormal sound fro indoor unit
Remove foreign objects. Adjust all parts position
of indoor unit, tighten screws and stick damping
plaster between connected parts
Foreign objects inside the outdoor
unit or therere parts touching
together inside the outdoor unit
Theres abnormal sound fro outdoor unit
Remove foreign objects. Adjust all parts position
of outdoor unit, tighten screws and stick damping
plaster between connected parts
Short circuit inside the magnetic
coil
During heating, the way valve has abnormal
electromagnetic sound
Replace magnetic coil
Abnormal shake of compressor
Outdoor unit gives out abnormal sound
Adjust the support foot mat of compressor, tighten
the bolts
A b n o r m a l s o u n d i n s i d e t h e
compressor
Abnormal sound inside the compressor
If add too much refrigerant during maintenance,
please reduce refrigerant properly. Replace
compressor for other circumstances.
6. Air Conditioner is Leaking
Possible causes
Discriminating method (air conditioner status)
Troubleshooting
Drain pipe is blocked
Water leaking from indoor unit
Eliminate the foreign objects inside the drain pipe
Drain pipe is broken
Water leaking from drain pipe
Replace drain pipe
Wrapping is not tight
Water leaking from the pipe connection place of
indoor unit
Wrap it again and bundle it tightly
5. Compressor Cant Operate
Possible causes
Discriminating method (air conditioner status)
Troubleshooting
Wrong wire connection, or poor
connection
Check the wiring status according to circuit
diagram
Connect wires according to wiring diagram to make
sure all wiring terminals are connected firmly
Capacity of compressor is
damaged
Measure the capacity of fan capacitor with an
universal meter and find that the capacity is out of
the deviation range indicated on the nameplate of
fan capacitor.
Replace the compressor capacitor
Power voltage is a little low or high
Use universal meter to measure the power supply
voltage. The voltage is a little high or low
Suggest to equip with voltage regulator
Coil of compressor is burnt out
Use universal meter to measure the resistance
between compressor terminals and its 0
Repair or replace compressor
Cylinder of compressor is blocked Compressor cant operate
Repair or replace compressor
4. ODU Fan Motor Cant Operate
Possible causes
Discriminating method (air conditioner status)
Troubleshooting
Wrong wire connection, or poor
connection
Check the wiring status according to circuit
diagram
Connect wires according to wiring diagram to make
sure all wiring terminals are connected firmly
Capacity of the ODU fan motor is
damaged
Measure the capacity of fan capacitor with an
universal meter and find that the capacity is out of
the deviation range indicated on the nameplate of
fan capacitor.
Replace the capacity of fan
Power voltage is a little low or high
Use universal meter to measure the power supply
voltage. The voltage is a little high or low
Suggest to equip with voltage regulator
Motor of outdoor unit is damaged
When unit is on, cooling/heating performance is
bad and ODU compressor generates a lot of noise
and heat.
Change compressor oil and refrigerant. If no better,
replace the compressor with a new one
