2-33. E: A3. Compressor temperature error (Outdoor unit)
Wired remote
Indicator
controller
Outdoor unit main PCB
Detective actuator
Compressor temperature thermistor
Forecast of cause
Check point 1. Check if 3-way valve is open
If the 3-way valve is closed, open the 3-way valve and check operation.
NOTE: For cooling operation, check gas side of the 3-way valve.
For heating operation, check liquid side of the 3-way valve.
Check point 2. Check the electronic expansion valve (EEV) and strainer
• Check if EEV open.
Refer to outdoor unit Electronic Expansion Valve (EEV) in
03-52.
• Check the strainer clogging.
Check point 3. Check the outdoor unit fan and heat exchanger
• Check for foreign object at heat exchanger
• Check if fan can be rotated by hand.
• Check the motor. (Refer to outdoor unit fan motor in
52.)
Check point 4. Check the compressor thermistor
The compressor temperature thermistor characteristics check. (Check by disconnecting thermistor
from PCB.)
NOTE: For the characteristics of the thermistor, refer to
03-62.
