[8] Troubleshooting
1. Check methods
1. Component and check points
(1) Thermistor
Room temperature thermistor (TH21)
Liquid pipe thermistor (TH22)
Gas pipe thermistor (TH23)
Disconnect the connector and measure the resistance between terminals with a tester.
(Ambient temperature 50°F (10°C) - 86°F (30°C))
Normal
4.3kΩ - 9.6kΩ
(Refer to the thermistor characteristic graph below.)
