SYMPTOM
Compressor and condenser fan will not start,
Compressor will not start but condenser fan
runs
Three-phase scroll compressor
makes excessive noise_ and there may be a
low pressure differential,
Compressor cycles (other than normally sat-
isfying UI)
Compressor operates continuously
Excessive head preesure
Head preesure too low
Excessive suction pressure
Suction preeeure tOO lOW
IFM does not run
IFM operation is intermittent

CAUSE
Power failure
Fuse blown or circuit breaker tripped
REMEDY
Call power company
Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker
Defective contactor, transformer, or high-pressure, Replace component
loss-of-charge or low-pressure switch
Determine cause and correct
Insufficient line voltage
Incorrect or faulty wiring
UI setting too high
Faulty wiring or loose connections in compressor cir-
cuit
Compressor motor burned out, seized, or
internal overload open
Defective run/start capacitor, overload, start relay
One leg of 3-phase power dead
Low input voltage (20% low)
Scroll compressor is rotating in the wrong direction
Refrigerant overcharge or undercharge
Defective compressor
Insufficient line voltage
Blocked outdoor coil
Defective run/start capacitor
Faulty outdoor fan motor or capacitor
Restriction in refrigerant system
Dirty air filter
Unit undersized for load
UI temperature set too low
Low refrigerant charge
Air in system
Outdoor coil dirty or restricted
Dirty air filter
Dirty condenser coil
Refrigerant overcharged
Air in system
Condenser air restricted or air short-cycling
Low refrigerant charge
Restriction in liquid tube
High heat load
Compressor valves leaking
Refrigerant overcharged
Dirty air filter
Low refrigerant charge
Metering device or low side restricted
Insufficient evaporator airflow
Temperature too low in conditioned area
Outdoor ambient below 55"F
Filter drier restricted
Blower wheel not secured to shaft
Insufficient voltage at motor
Power connectors not properly sealed
Water dripping into motor
Connectors not firmly sealed
Check wiring diagram and rewire correctly
Lower UI temperature setting below room tem-
perature
Check wiring and repair or replace
Determine cause
Replace compressor
Determine cause and replace
Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker
Determine cause
Determine cause and correct
Correct the direction of rotation by reversing the
3-phase power leads to the unit. Shut down unit
to allow pressures to equalize.
Recover refrigerant, evacuate system, and re-
charge to capacities shown on rating plate
Replace and determine cause
Determine cause and correct
Determine cause and correct
Determine cause and replace
Replace
Locate restriction and remove
Replace filter
Decrease load or increase unit size
Reset UI
Locate leak, repair, and recharge
Recover refrigerant, evacuate system, and re-
charge
Clean coil or remove restriction
Replace filter
Clean coil
Recover excess refrigerant
Recover refrigerant, evacuate system, and re-
charge
Determine cause and correct
Check for leaks, repair, and recharge.
Remove restriction
Check for source and eliminate
Replace compressor
Recover excess refrigerant
Replace filter
Check for leaks, repair and recharge
Remove source of restriction
Increase air quantity
Check filtemreplace if necessary
Reset UI
Install low-ambient kit
Replace filter
Properly tighten blower wheel to shaft
Determine cause and correct
Connectors should snap easily; do not force
Verify proper drip loops in connector wires
Gently pull wires individually to be sure they are
crimped into the housing
