7. Make sure the coils are clean. Then check evaporator “air in” and “air out” temperatures. If the
temperatures are the same:
• Possible loss of refrigerant
• Possible bad valves in the
compressor
Repair or Replace
defective part
8. To check for a bad thermostat, turn power to the unit off. Remove the control box cover and place
both thermostat wires onto one terminal (replace control box cover for safety). This will pass the
switch in the thermostat. Turn the power on. If both blowers and the compressor come on, the
thermostat needs to be replaced.
