• Check for non-condensable in system
3. Condenser coil poor air circulation (dirty, blocked, damaged)
4. Return air duct has substantial leakage
1. Time delay relay or control board defective
2. If high pressure switch present go to Flash Code 2 information
1. Run capacitor has failed
2. Low line voltage (contact utility if voltage at disconnect is low
• Check wiring connections
3. Excessive liquid refrigerant in compressor
