apply power to the compressor terminals.
On heat pump models, the refrigerant flow
direction is controlled by the reversing valve
assembly. In the cooling mode, the main board
supplies line voltage to the solenoid coil, which
causes the valve to switch flow direction. With no
voltage applied to the solenoid coil, the valve will
be in the heating mode.
The solenoid coil attaches to the valve body with
a 5/16-in. hex-head bolt. The 265-volt coil has
blue
wires and measures approximately ~ 3.23k
ohms.
