Thermistor Location
Room Air Thermistor (2800 & 3800 Model Series)
The indoor air thermistor is located in front of the
indoor coil where it detects the temperature of
the room air being returned to the unit. It is held in
position away from the coil by a plastic fastener
that is pushed between the coil plate fi ns. The room
air thermistor is connected to the control board at
CN1 (yellow wires).
Indoor Coil Thermistor (2800 & 3800 Model Series)
The indoor coil thermistor is mounted in a copper
tube that is brazed to an end turn at the right side
of the indoor coil.
