• Check the voltage. See the limits on the preceding

page. If not within limits, call an electrician.

• Check overload, if externally mounted.

Replace if open. (If the compressor temperature is
high, remove the overload, cool, and retest.)

• If not running, determine the cause. Replace if

required.

• Remove the cabinet. inspect the interior surface of the

condenser; if restricted, clean carefully with a vacuum
cleaner (do not damage fins) or brush. Clean the
interior base before reassembling.

• If condenser fins are closed over a large area on the

coil surface, head pressures will increase, causing the
compressor to cycle. Straighten the fins or replace the
coil.

• Test capacitor.

• Check the terminals. If loose, repair or replace.

• Check the system for a restriction.

• If restricted, clean or replace.

• Close if open.

• Determine if the unit is properly sized for the area to

be cooled.

• Check the set screw or clamp. If loose or missing,

correct. If the blower or fan is hitting air guide,
rearrange the air handling parts.

• Carefully rearrange tubing not to contact, compressor,

shroud, and barrier.
