10-3. HOW TO PROCEED "SELF-DIAGNOSIS" As this air conditioner has a function to memorize all the failures that had occurred, the latest failure detail can be recalled by following the procedure below. Use this function when the check code is not displayed with wired remote controller or the re- mote controller at use is wireless type.

(RT61) Refer to “Inverter P.C. board” in "10-6. TEST POINT DIAGRAM AND Fin temperature VOLTAGE”, for the chart of thermistor.
10-5. TROUBLESHOOTING FLOW A How to check inverter/compressor Disconnect the connector (CN61) between compressor and the intelligent power module (IPM). Check the voltage between terminals. See 10-5. “Check of open phase”. Are the voltages balanced? Replace the inverter P.C. board. Check the compressor.

D Check of compressor winding ● Disconnect the connector between the compressor and intelligent power module, and measure the resistance between the compressor terminals. <Measurement point> Measure the resistance between the lead wires at 3 points. BK - WH BK - RD WH - RD <Judgement>...
Page 22
G Check of outdoor thermistors Disconnect the connector of thermistor in the outdoor P.C. board (see below table), and measure the resistance of thermistor. Is the resistance of thermistor normal? Replace the thermistor except RT64. When RT64 is (Refer to "10-6.TEST POINT DIAGRAM AND VOLTAGE".) abnormal, replace the inverter P.C.
Page 23
I Check of outdoor fan motor Check the connection between the connector CN931 and CN932. Is the resistance between each termi- nal of outdoor fan motor normal? (Refer to"10-4. TROUBLE CRITERION OF MAIN PARTS".) Disconnect CN932 from the inverter P.C. board, and turn on the power supply.
K Check of LEV Start Turn on power supply to the outdoor unit after checking Normal LEV coil is fixed to the LEV body securely. Is "click - click" sound heard? Or, do you feel vibration of the LEV coil with a hand? Disconnect the connector CN724 is there nor- Replace the inverter P.C.
