AIR OPERATION TROUBLESHOOTING -  

COOLING MODE

 

Fault 

Possible Cause 

Verification 

Recommended Action 

Heating instead 
of cooling 

Thermostat not set up 
properly. 

Verify that there is 24VAC across 
O/B/W1 and C of the terminal strip 
when calling for cooling. 

Correct thermostat setup. 
Change to a different thermostat. 

High Pressure 
control trips 

Faulty reversing valve so-
lenoid coil. 

Verify solenoid by removing it from 
the shaft while the unit is running.  
There should be a loud “whoosh” 
sound when it is removed.  Dis-
charge pressure will continue to 
rise even if there is a loop switch.  

Replace solenoid if faulty. 

 

Faulty reversing valve. 

 A click can be heard when the coil 
is energized but hot gas is still di-
rected to the air coil.  Discharge 
pressure will continue to rise even if 
there is a loop switch.  

Replace reversing valve. 

 

Faulty Loop Pressure 
switch 

Loop LED does not come on 
around 

480PSIG

. Shorting S and S 

causes the LED to come on. 

Replace loop pressure switch. 

 

Faulty Loop Pressure 
switch Input  

Shorting S and S does not cause 
the Loop Switch LED to come on, 
or does not cause  a loop change. 

Replace the control board. 

High Pressure 
control and man-
ual high pressure 
control trips 
(very fast) 

Faulty reclaim valve sole-
noid. 

Verify solenoid by removing it from 
the shaft while energized.  If there 
is no click the solenoid is bad

 

 

Replace reclaim solenoid coil. 

 

Faulty reclaim valve. 

A click can be heard when the 
valve is selected but the unit still 
trips out.  

Replace the reclaim valve 

 

Faulty control board out-
put. (L1 to L5). 

Loop LED does not come on or 
there is no 24VAC across the loop 
output and C of the control board 
when the loop is selected. 

Replace the control board. 

Loop changes 
occur too fre-
quently 

Cooling TXV  adjusted too 
far closed or stuck  or par-
tially  blocked 

Continuous loop changing (every 7 
seconds) in two loop mode, high 
suction pressure, hot compressor.  

 

Adjust TXV or replace if faulty. 

 

Unit overcharged.

 

Frequent loop changes.  Switch to 
heating mode to confirm. 

Remove refrigerant 1/2 pound at a 
time in heating mode.

 

 

Loop field saturated

 

Frequent loop changes in two loop 
mode after some season runtime. 

Install soaker hose.

 

 

Loop field too small 

Frequent loop changes in two loop 
mode after some season runtime. 

Increase loop size.
