pressures exceeds 500 psi. The compressor is also protected by 3
PTC devices attached to the motor windings. The PTC's resistance
is sensed by the 2-speed control board. See Table 16 for resistance
ranges.
MECHANICALLY INTERLOCKED CONTACTORS
The 2-speed products are equipped with mechanically interlocked
contactors. Each contactor has interconnecting linkage, providing
independent interlocks.
The 2-speed control provides the electrical interlock. The contac-
tors are supplied with 240v coils, which reduce the va require-
ments of the low-voltage (24vac) control system.
TEMPERATURE THERMISTORS
Thermistors are electronic devices which sense temperature. As
the temperature increases, the resistance decreases. Two ther-
mistors are used to sense temperature: one senses outdoor ambient,
and the other senses coil temperature (heat pump only). Refer to
Fig. 39 for resistance values versus temperature.
If the outdoor ambient thermistor should fail, a malfunction signal
appears on the indoor thermostat and 2-speed control. The control
does not initiate second-stage latching, crankcase heater is turned
on during all off-cycles, heating defaults to high speed, and defrost
initiates on demand from coil thermistor. (See Table 17.)

Fig. 39—Resistance Values Versus Temperature
If the outdoor coil thermistor should fail, a malfunction signal
appears on the indoor thermostat and 2-speed control. The control
defrosts every 90 minutes of heating operation and terminates in 5
minutes. (See Table 17.)
V. LED FUNCTION/MALFUNCTION LIGHTS
The 2-speed control is equipped with an LED function/ malfunc-
tion light.
NOTE: Only malfunction signal appears at thermostat. Both
function and malfunction signals appear at control board. (See Fig.
33 for LED location.) Table 15 provides the function/malfunction
code, location, and definition.
VI. TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTE: Troubleshooting charts for air conditioning and heat
pump units are provided in the back of this manual — see Fig. 52,
53, and 54.
COMPRESSOR WINDING CHECK
The 2-speed compressor is nothing more than 2 single-phase
motors within 1 compressor shell. When the compressor fails to
start or run, there are 3 tests that can be made: open, ground, or
short. This compressor has no internal line-break overload; how-
ever, it does have PTC motor protectors. See Compressor PTC-
Overload Protection section for PTC overload information.
