Trouble Shooting Guide Continued
GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING
Electric shock from unit.
1 Grounded electric circuit.
1 An ungrounded wire or component is touching the unit
casing. Use an ohmmeter or hipot tester to find trouble.
Replace or rewire.
2 Ungrounded unit.
2 The units must be connected to a grounding system.
Cycle too long or unit operates
continuously.
1 Condenser dirty, clogged or restricted.
1 Clean condenser.
2 Compressor motor or mechanism defective. 2 Replace compressor
3 Air or non-condensable gases in system.
3 Recover refrigerant, install filter/drier, evacuate system
and weigh in proper charge of virgin refrigerant.
4 Drier restricted.
4 Replace restricted drier.
5 Compressor contactor stuck closed.
5 Replace contactor.
6 Low refrigerant charge.
6 Locate refrigerant leak, recover refrigerant, repair leak,
install filter/drier, evacuate system and weigh in proper
charge.
7 Improper unit installation.
7 Check for airflow restrictions and objects blocking front
of unit
8 Unit too small for its application.
8 Replace with larger unit.
9 High ambient temperature
9 Install condenser air intake kit to draw air from another
area
10 Leak in system
10 Locate refrigerant leak, recover refrigerant, repair leak,
install filter/drier, evacuate system and weigh in proper
charge.
11 Dirty air filter (air flow restricted)
11 Clean air filter .
COMPRESSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
Compressor starts and runs but
cycles on overload
1 Low voltage
1 Check power supply for proper voltage at unit plus or
minus 10% of rated nameplate voltage.
2 Capacitor incorrect or defective
2 Check capacitance and replace if necessary.
3 Condenser dirty, clogged or restricted
3 Clean condenser coil.
4 Compressor
grounded
4 Check compressor windings to ground. Replace
compressor if shorted.
5 Air or non-condensable gases in system
5 Recover refrigerant, install filter/drier, evacuate system
and weigh in proper charge of virgin refrigerant.
6 Wiring incorrect or defective
5 Tug on wires to see if they will separate from
connections.
7 High head-pressure
7 Clean coils and filter, check system pressures
8 Drier restricted
8 Replace restricted drier.
9 Overload protector incorrect or defective
9 Replace as necessary.
10 Refrigerant overcharged
10 Recover entire refrigerant charge and weigh in proper
charge.
Compressor tries to start when
thermostat closes, but cuts out
on overload; finally starts after
several attempts
1 Low voltage
1 Check voltage at wall outlet. Must be
within 10% of nameplate rating
voltage.
2 Compressor capacitor incorrect or defective 2 Check capacitance and replace if necessary.
3 Compressor motor requires start assist
3 Unit is equipped with hard start capacitor. Check
capacitance and replace if necessary.
4 Air or non-condensable gases in system
4 Recover refrigerant, install filter/drier, evacuate system
and weigh in proper charge of virgin refrigerant.
5 Drier restricted
5 Replace restricted drier.
6 Refrigerant system not equalized.
6 The unit was programmed at the factory with a 5 minute
time delay between compressor starts. If the compressor
cycles more frequently, contact factory.
7 Discharge line restricted
7 Repair as necessary.
