Tu r n “OFF” the power supply
breaker, and remove 3P
connector which connects
inverter and compressor.
• Check whether 25A fuse
on the control board
assembly is blown or not.
(F01)
Turn on the power breaker,
and operate the air condi-
tioner in COOL mode by time
shortening.
Measure terminal voltage of
the electrolytic capacity.
500µF:400WV × 4
After operation, turn off the
power breaker after 2
minutes 20 seconds passed,
and discharge the electro-
lytic capacitor by soldering
iron.
Check voltage between
motor phases.
• Is not winding between 
-
‚ 
-
, or 
-
 opened
or short-circuited?
• Is not frame grounded with
, 
, or 
?
Summary
If fuse was blown, be sure to
check the electrolytic
capacitor and diode block.
• Connect discharge
resistance (approx. 100Ω,
40W) or soldering iron
(plug) between +, –
terminals of the electro-
lytic capacitor (760µF) of
C14 (with printed CAU-
TION HIGH VOLTAGE) on
P.C. board.
OK if 500µF →
DC280 to 380V
Remove CN300 while
pushing the part indicated
by an arrow because CN300
is a connector with lock.
→ Resistance between
phases should be
approx. 25 to 55Ω
→ Should be 10MΩ or
more.
Replace 
outdoor 
fan motor.
Remove 
connector of 
compressor.

Does outdoor 
fan rotate?
Replace fuse.
Check

Check 
electrolytic 
capacitor, diode 
block, etc.
Remove connector 
CN300 of outdoor fan 
motor, and using a 
tester, check resistance 
value between every 
phases at motor side.
Check 
terminal voltage
of electrolytic 
capacitor.
Does LED on control 
board flash or go on?
