• RUN LED on the remote control switch:
Flickering every 2 seconds.
Phenomenon
Cause
Check item
Action
(Turn OFF the main switch)
Disconnection or insufficient contacting of the remote control
cable
Check the cable and the
connections
Repair the cable or connect the
cable
Failure of the remote control switch
Check the remote control switch
using the self-check mode *1)
Replace the remote control
switch if the remote control
switch is faulty
Failure of PCB
(in the indoor unit and the
remote control switch)
Disconnected wire to PCB
Check the connectors
Correctly connect the wires
Failure of PCB
Check PCB using the
self-check mode *2)
Replace PCB if it failed

10.1.4 Abnormal operation of the devices
Phenomenon
Cause
Check item
Action
(Turn OFF the main switch)
RUN LED is ON and the LCD
is indicated. However, the
system does not operate.
(For example, the indoor
fan, the RASC fan or the
compressor does not
operate)
Failure of the
indoor unit fan
motor
Disconnected
coil
Measure the coil resistance
using the tester
Replace the indoor unit fan
motor
Burnt-out coil
Measure the insulation
resistance
Failure of the
RASC unit fan
motor
Disconnected
coil
Measure the coil resistance
using the tester
Replace the RASC unit fan
motor
Burnt-out coil
Measure the insulation
resistance
Failure of the
magnetic switch
for the RASC
unit fan motor
Insufficient
contacting
Measure the voltage between
the contacting parts
Replace PCB for the RASC
unit
Failure of the compressor motor
Measure the resistance
between two wires
Replace the compressor
Failure of the compressor
Check for an abnormal sound
from the compressor
Failure of the
magnetic switch
for compressor
Insufficient
contacting
Check that the magnetic
switch activates correctly or
not
Replace the magnetic switch
Failure of one of
PCBs
Disconnec ted
wiring to PCB
Check the connections
Correctly connect the wiring
Failure of PCB
Check PCB using the self-
check mode *2)
Replace PCB if it failed
