Solution
Check Line Voltage circuit breaker and disconnect
Check for line voltage between L1 and L2 on the contactor
Check for 24VAC between R and C on CXM
Check primary/secondary voltage on transformer
Check pump operation or valve operation/setting
Check water flow adjust to proper flow rate
Bring water temp within design parameters
Check for dirty air filter and clean or replace
Check fan motor operation and airflow restrictions
Dirty Air Coil- construction dust etc.
Too high of external static. Check static vs blower table
Bring return air temp within design parameters
Check superheat/subcooling vs typical operating condition
table
Check switch continuity and operation. Replace
Check for refrigerant leaks
Check charge and start-up water flow
Check pump operation or water valve operation/setting
Plugged strainer or filter. Clean or replace.
Check water flow adjust to proper flow rate
Check antifreeze density with hydrometer
Bring water temp within design parameters
Check temp and impedance correlation per chart
Check for dirty air filter and clean or replace
Check fan motor operation and airflow restrictions
Too high of external static. Check static vs blower table
Too much cold vent air? Bring entering air temp within
design parameters
Normal airside applications will require 30°F only
Check temp and impedance correlation per chart
Check for blockage and clean drain
Check trap dimensions and location ahead of vent
Check for piping slope away from unit
Check slope of unit toward outlet
Poor venting. Check vent location
Check for moisture shorting to air coil
Check power supply and 24VAC voltage before and during
operation.
Check power supply wire size
Check compressor starting. Need hard start kit?
Check 24VAC and unit transformer tap for correct power
supply voltage
Check power supply voltage and 24VAC before and during
operation.
Check 24VAC and unit transformer tap for correct power
supply voltage
Check for poor air flow or overcharged unit.
Check for poor water flow, or air flow
See "Only fan operates"
Check and Replace if necessary
Reset power and check operation
Check and Clean air filter
Reset power or wait 20 minutes for auto exit.
Unit may be oversized for space. Check sizing for actual
load of space.
Check and Replace if necessary
Insure thermostat set for heating or cooling operation
Check for lockout codes. Reset power.
Check compressor overload. Replace if necessary.
Check thermostat wiring at heat pump. Jumper Y and R
for compressor operation in test mode.
