HVAC: SmartAir eHVAC System
Unit runs—but does not
blow cold air.
1. Airflow blockage.
2. Compressor.
3. Fuse or Relay.
4. System and Com-
pressor controller
connections/ defec-
tive compressor.
5. Condenser fan and
high pressure switch.
6. Evaporator dis-
charge temp sen-
sor/Freeze switch
defective.
7. Compressor thermal
switch.
8. Evaporator blower/
Linear Power Module.
9. Loss of charge (refrig-
erant system is ser-
viceable).
1. Clear any blockage from recirculation grill or louvers.
Also check condenser inlet and outlet for restriction (out-
side truck).
2. Check F4 compressor fuse and R3 compressor relay.
3. Confirm all wire harness plugs are connected. Test sys-
tem and compressor controller. See “
4. Check high pressure switch and condenser fan. “
5. Check sensor. See “
6. Check normally closed thermal switch. See “
7. Check evaporator blower and linear power module. See
J. Evaporator Blower Motor and Linear Power Module
8. If all tests check OK, a loss of refrigerant charge may
have occurred.
Unit cycles On and Off and
doesn’t cool
1. Poor electrical con-
nection.
2. Condenser fan inop-
erative.
3. Air flow blockage
causing high pres-
sure or freeze condi-
tion.
1. Check all electrical connections.
2. Check condenser fan. See “
3. Check for restricted airflow outside truck at condenser
inlet and outlet and at louvers and recirculation grill.
Check pressure switch, thermal limit and/or discharge
temperature sensor. See “
,
F. Discharge Temperature Sensor/Freeze
Unit blows cold air—but
low airflow
1. Check all duct work
connections.
2. Air flow restricted.
3. Evaporator Blower
motor inoperative.
1. Make sure all ducts are connected, sealed and secure.
2. Check for airflow at louvers and recirculation grill.
3. Check evaporator blower motor and linear power mod-
ule. See “
J. Evaporator Blower Motor and Linear Power
