Variable Speed Compressor; Wiring Error Check - Haier AW07EH2VHA Service Manual

Variable Speed Compressor

1. Begin by turning off power at the equipment disconnect switch. Adequate time must be given for capacitors on the circuit
board to discharge. Wait a minimum of 12 minutes before handling the circuitry.
2. Locate the Inverter control module (IPM). The IPM is connected to the main circuit board by a wire harnesses, and has the
compressor connections mounted on it.
3. Set your test meter to AC volts and test for voltage at the three compressor connections. Voltage should be zero before
proceeding.
4. Remove the three compressor connections making note of the terminal letter and the wire colors.
5. Set your ohm meter to the lowest resistance setting that is available. Test all three connections terminals using the following
sequence:
• U terminal to V terminal
• U terminal to W terminal
• V terminal to W terminal
All three resistance values should match the specification table below. Compressor windings are deemed bad if they are
greater than 7% out of specification. Readings taken at the wire IPM module that are outside of factory tolerances require
steps 6 through 9.
6. Remove the compressor blanket and set it aside. Remove the terminal block cover to expose the connections at the
compressor terminals. Inspect for any visual damage. Remove all three wires from the terminals making note of the wire color
and the terminal identifier.
7. Repeat process outlined in step 5. Repair or replace the wires if the compressor windings check properly.
8. Check each terminal to ground (suction line connection at compressor) to check for grounded windings if the resistance
values are not correct.
9. Replace the compressor if the winding measurements are greater than 7% out of specification.
