 AH-SVX008C-EN

Noisy Compressor

a. Expansion valve stuck in open position 
(abnormally cold suction line).

Ensure feeder bulb is tight on suction line.Check 
operation and superheat.

b. Worn or scarred compressor bearings. 

Replace compressor.

c. Liquid slugging.

System overcharged. Reclaim excess refrigerant.

d. Scroll compressor not properly phased.

Phase correctly at main power source. Do not 
rewire compressor.

Compressor Fails to Start

a. Temperature set point too high. 

Adjust to desired temperature.

b. Compressor internal overload protector is 
open.

Check compressor for short circuit or ground.

c. Complete loss of refrigerant charge (low 
pressure safety switch).

Locate and repair leak. Recharge system. 

d. Condenser pressure too high (high pres- sure 
safety switch).

Check condenser for obstructions.

e. Condensate switch open.

1. Ensure unit is level.
2. Check that condensate pan is draining 
properly. Clear obstructions.

System Short of Capacity

a. Low refrigerant (indicated by bubbles in sight 
glass).

Check for leaks. Repair and recharge system.

b. Expansion valve stuck or obstructed (short 
cycling or continuous running).

Remove valve and clear obstruction or replace 
valve.

c. Clogged drier/strainer (feels cold).

Replace with new drier/strainer.

d. Reduced airflow

Check belt tension, filters and clear evaporator 
coil of debris.

Compressor Short Cycles

a. Low line voltage causing compressor to 
overheat.

Check power source for cause of low line voltage.

b. Dirty or iced over evaporator coil.

Defrost and/or clean coil.

c. Reduced airflow (when applicable).

Check filter and belt tension.

d. Lack of refrigerant.

Check for leak. Repair and recharge system.

e. Short cycling of conditioned air.

1. Supply and/or return grilles are incorrectly
oriented. Re-orient.
2. Supply and return grilles are too close 
together. Move farther apart.
3. Insufficient heat load. Add temporary heat 
load to compensate.

f. Thermostat is improperly located.

Check for supply registers that may be too close 
to thermostat. Relocate if necessary.

Heater Inoperative

a. Fuses blown/circuit breaker tripped.

Check for short circuit; replace fuses/reset circuit 
breaker.

b. Thermostat set too low.

Increase temperature setpoint.

c. Overheat switch open due to insufficient 
airflow across heater elements.

Check for dirty filters or obstructions that may 
reduce airflow. Correct or replace as needed.

d. Fuse link blown. 

Replace fuse link (see item immediately
above).

e. Heater element burned out.

Check continuity with an ohmmeter. Replace 
heater element.
