9 UNIT DISASSEMBLY Front panel removal Unscrew the six screws placed on unit back and remove the front panel. Control panel template removal Remove the control panel template levering on the two hooks placed in its lower part. In this way all the electrical and electronic parts of control panel can be reached and it is also possible do all checks and parts substitutions of the same panel.
9 UNIT DISASSEMBLY Electromechanical control removal Remove the plug-in switch knob, release the plastic tab and remove the switch end the board. Rear panel removal Remove the condensate tank in the rear of the unit. Unscrew the four side clamping screws, lift the back panel about 10 mm and finally remove it. At this point it is possible to make any check and/or service operation on the unit.
9 UNIT DISASSEMBLY Fan motor replacement Disconnect the polarized electronic connector and TH sensor. Using a screwdriver release the four plastic tabs that keep the half scroll of the fan in place. In this way it is possible to extract the motor from the rubber vibration isolators which are supporting it. If one or more plastic tabs of the half scroll of the fan are broken, the half scroll can be secured by similar screws to the ones used in the unit, during the re-assembly.
10 TROUBLESHOOTING Mod. 51AKM 006, 51AKM 06G, RTE 165F, RTE 165G, VTE 075F, VTE 075G Autodiagnostic In the event of malfunctions, a warning will be given automatically on the display.
10 TROUBLESHOOTING Mod. 51AKM 006, 51AKM 06G, RTE 165F, RTE 165G, VTE 075F, VTE 075G Trouble Action Remedy Unit does not work and both fan speed LEDs are blinking. Check the start capacitor. Replace start capacitor if necessary. Connect the fan motor directly to the supply. Replace the motor in case it does not work; if motor works replace the control PCB. Check the supply voltage. Call an electrician in case it is more than ±10% of the nominal voltage.
10 TROUBLESHOOTING Mod. 51AKM 006, 51AKM 06G, RTE 165F, RTE 165G, VTE 075F, VTE 075G Trouble Action Remedy Too much frost on cooler. Air filter is clogged. Clean air filter. Check fan speed. Replace motor if fan speed is too low. Outside air temperature is too low. Put the unit in Fan Only mode until outside coil is defrosted. Compressor relay contacts are welded. Replace power PCB. Cooler fins are bent and they partially close the air passage. Straighten the fins.
10 TROUBLESHOOTING Mod. 51AKM 006, 51AKM 06G, RTE 165F, RTE 165G, VTE 075F, VTE 075G Trouble Action Remedy The condensate tank is filled in Cooling Mode. Place the exhaust air duct in vertical position and pour a glass of water on the condensing coil. Connect the condensate drain pump directly to the supply. Replace the control PCB in case the motor works (the noise of the drained water can be easily heard). Replace the motor in case it does not work.
10.1 Component testing procedure Capacitor body To each terminal Capacitor To capacitor body Capacitor Fig. 1 Fig. 2 Capacitors Compressor Remove the plug from the socket and remove the cables from the capacitor. Discharge the capacitor, shortcircuiting its terminal with the blade of a screwdriver. Take an Ohmmeter and select the x 100 scale. Then connect the sensors of the Ohmmeter to two terminals of the capacitor.
