Troubleshooting
1: Voltage measurement point
Refer to Thermistor Resistance/Temperature Characteristics table 1 on page 267.
For pressure/voltage characteristics graph, refer to Pressure Sensor on page 269.
Cooling?
Is the low
pressure sensor
correct?
The voltage
between the pins 2
and 3 of X18A is 1.0 VDC
or less? (Low pressure
sensor output
voltage)
1
Is the
suction pipe 1
temp. minus low pressure
saturation temp. 20˚C
(36˚F) or more?
Resistance is
normal when
measured after
disconnecting the
thermistor
(R3T).
Caution
Be sure to turn off the power switch before connecting or disconnecting
connectors, or parts may be damaged.
Low pressure is
0.25 MPa (84 ftAq)
or less?
Refrigerant shortage,
closed stop valve or
refrigerant system is
clogged. Check the
refrigerant system.
Replace the main PCB
(A1P).
