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
4. Compressor bearing are seized
5. Measure compressor oil level
1. Outdoor unit power disconnect is open
2. Compressor circuit breaker or fuse(s) is open
3. Compressor contactor has failed open
• Check compressor contactor wiring and connectors
• Check for compressor contactor failure (burned, pitted, or open)
• Check wiring and connectors between supply and compressor
• Check for low pilot voltage at compressor contactor coil
4. High pressure switch is open and requires manual reset
5. Open circuit in compressor supply wiring or connections
6. Unusually long compressor protector reset time due to extreme ambient temperature
7. Compressor windings are damaged
• Check compressor motor winding resistance
1. Run capacitor has failed
2. Open circuit in compressor start wiring or connections
• Check wiring and connectors between supply and the compressor S terminal
3. Compressor start winding is damaged
• Check compressor motor winding resistance
1. Open circuit in compressor run wiring or connections
• Check wiring and connectors between supply and the compressor R terminal
2. Compressor run winding is damaged
• Check compressor motor winding resistance
1. Compressor contactor has failed closed
2. Thermostat demand signal not connected to module
1. Control circuit transformer is overloaded
2. Low line voltage (contact utility if voltage at disconnect is low)
• Check wiring conditions

Mis-wired Module Troubleshooting
Determine if both R and C module terminals are connected. Verify voltage is present at module's R and C
terminals. Review 24VAC Power Wiring section on Page 19 for R and C wiring.
Determine if R and Y terminals are wired in reverse. Verify module's R and C terminals have a constant source.
Review 24VAC Power Wiring section on Page 19 for R and C wiring.
Verify Y terminal is connected to 24VAC at contactor coil. Verify voltage at contactor coils falls below 0.5VAC
when off.
Verify R and C terminals are supplied with 19-28VAC.
Verify Y terminal is connected to 24VAC at contactor coil. Verify voltage at contactor coil falls below 0.5VAC when
off.
Check that compressor run and start wires are through module's current sensing holes. Verify Y terminal is
connected to 24VAC at contactor coil. Verify voltage at contactor coil falls below 0.5VAC when off.
Check that compressor run and start wires are routed through the correct module sensing holes.
Determine if module's Y terminal is connected. Verify Y terminal is connected to 24VAC at contactor coil. Verify
24 VAC is present across Y and C when the thermostat demand signal is present. If not, R and C are reverse
wired. Verify voltage at contactor coil falls below 0.5VAC when off. Review Thermostat Demand Wiring for Y and
C wiring.
