COMPONENT OPERATION AND TESTING COMPRESSOR WINDING TEST (Figure 2.) Remove the compressor terminal box cover and WARNING disconnect the wires from the terminals. Using an ohmmeter, check continuity across the following: DISCONNECT ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE UNIT BEFORE SERVICING OR TESTING FIGURE 2 COMPRESSOR WINDING TEST COMPRESSORS...
GROUND TEST FAN MOTOR (Figure 4) Use an ohmmeter set on its highest scale. Touch A 230 volt single phase permanent split capacitor one lead to the compressor body (clean point of motor is used to drive the evaporator blower and contact, as a good connection is a must) and the condenser fan.
SYSTEM CONTROL SWITCH (Figure 6) CAPACITOR – TEST This switch is double pole, single throw. Check for 1. Remove the capacitor from the unit. continuity between terminals 2 and 3, and 5 and 6. 2. Check for visual damage such as bulges, cracks, or leaks.

TEST Remove the wires from the thermostat. Turn the Note: The temperature must be within the thermostat to its coldest position. Check to see if range listed to check the thermostat. Refer to there is continuity between the two terminals. Turn the troubleshooting section in this manual for the thermostat to its warmest position.
