Defective outdoor controller cir-
cuit board
1
Check connection of connector (TH4, TH33)
on the outdoor controller circuit board. Check
breaking of the lead wire for TH4 or TH33.
Refer to "10-9. TEST POINT DIAGRAM".
2
Check resistance value of TH4, TH33, or
temperature by microprocessor.
(Thermistor/TH4, TH33: Refer to "10-6.
HOW TO CHECK THE PARTS".) (SW2 on
A-Control Service Tool: Refer to "10-10.

Open/short of outdoor unit thermistors
(TH3, TH6, TH7, TH8 and TH32 )
Abnormal if open or short is detected during
compressor operation.
Open detection of thermistors TH3 and TH6
is inoperative for 10 seconds to 10 minutes
after compressor starting and 10 minutes
after and during defrosting.
Note: Check which unit has abnormality in
its thermistor by switching the mode
of SW2. (PAC-SK52ST) (Refer to

Check connection of connector (CN3) on the
outdoor power circuit board.
Check breaking of the lead wire for thermistor
(TH3,TH6,TH7,TH8, TH32). Refer to "10-9.
TEST POINT DIAGRAM".
2
Check resistance value of thermistor
(TH3,TH6,TH7,TH8, TH32) or check tempera-
ture by microprocessor.
(Thermistor / TH3, TH6, TH7, TH8, TH32 : Refer
to "10-6. HOW TO CHECK THE PARTS".)
(SW2 on A-Control Service Tool: Refer
to "10-10. FUNCTION OF SWITCHES,

Replace outdoor controller circuit board.
Note: Emergency operation is available in case
of abnormalities of TH3, TH6, TH7 and
TH32. Refer to "10-8. EMERGENCY
OPERATION".

Turn off power, and on again to check if U5 is
displayed within 30 minutes.
If U4 is displayed instead of U5, follow the
action to be taken for U4.
5
Check resistance value of thermistor (TH8) or
temperature by microprocessor.
(Thermistor/TH8: Refer to "10-6. HOW TO
