REMKO ATY series Procedure DC fan motor of the indoor unit (control chip is installed in the motor): Switch on the voltage to the unit. In standby mode, measure the unit between terminals 1-3 and 4-3 of the connector plug. Check the measured values against those listed in the table below. If these differ, there is a problem with the control board and it must be replaced.
Page 47
Error code: Reason: The evaporator probe T2 measures the actual value with the compressor start and takes this as the reference value T . If, 5 minutes after the compressor start, the value T Start Start has not dropped by 2 °C for at least 4 seconds then the system assumes that the refrig- erant is low.
