Status LED Status LED Description
Yellow "ALERT" Open Circuit
Flash Code 5
Yellow "ALERT" Open Start Circuit
Flash Code 6 Current only in run circuit
Yellow "ALERT" Open Run Circuit
Flash Code 7 Current only in start circuit
Yellow "ALERT" Welded Contactor
Flash Code 8 Compressor always runs
Yellow "ALERT" Low Voltage
Flash Code 9 Control circuit < 17VAC
•
Flash Code number corresponds to a number of LED flashes, followed by a pause and then repeated.
•
TRIP and ALERT LEDs flashing at same time means control circuit voltage is too low for operation.
Table 1. Interpreting the Diagnostic LEDS (Cont.)
Cooling — Gradually lower the thermostat
temperature setpoint below the actual room
temperature and observe that the outdoor unit
and indoor blower energize. Feel the air being
circulated by the indoor blower and verify that
it is cooler than ambient temperature. Listen
for any unusual noises. If present, locate and
determine the source of the noise and correct
as necessary.
Heating — If provided with heating equipment,
lower the thermostat setpoint temperature to the
lowest obtainable setting and set the thermostat
function switch to HEATING. The outdoor unit
should stop running. The indoor blower will go
off after the preprogrammed delay. Increase
the setpoint temperature of the thermostat to
Status LED Troubleshooting Information
1. Outdoor unit power disconnect is open
2. Compressor circuit breaker or fuse(s) is open
3. Compressor contactor has failed open
• Check compressor contactor wiring and connectors
• Check for compressor contactor failure (burned, pitted or
open)
• Check wiring and connectors between supply and
compressor
• Check for low pilot voltage at compressor contactor coil
4. High pressure switch is open and requires manual reset
5. Open circuit in compressor supply wiring or connections
6. Unusually long compressor protector reset time due to
extreme ambient temperature
7. Compressor windings are damaged
• Check compressor motor winding resistance
1. Run capacitor has failed
2. Open circuit in compressor start wiring or connections
• Check wiring and connectors between supply and the
compressor "S" terminal
3. Compressor start winding is damaged
• Check compressor motor winding resistance
1. Open circuit in compressor run wiring or connections
• Check wiring and connectors between supply and the
compressor "R" terminal
2. Compressor run winding is damaged
• Check compressor motor winding resistance
1. Compressor contactor has failed closed
2. Thermostat demand signal not connected to module
1. Control circuit transformer is overloaded
2. Low line voltage (contact utility if voltage at disconnect is low)
• Check wiring connections
the maximum setting. Verify that the heating
equipment has been energized (i.e., fossil fuel
burner operating, etc.) and that the indoor blower
energizes after a short period of time. Feel the
air being circulated by the indoor blower and
verify that it is warmer than ambient temperature.
Listen for any unusual noises. If present, locate
and determine the source of the noise and cor-
rect as necessary.
NOTE: Other sources for heating (i.e.: electric
furnace, fossil fuel furnace, air handler with
electric heat options, etc.) that interface with
the heat pump should be functionally checked
to verify system operation and compatibility with
the heat pump. Refer to the installation instruc-
tions for this equipment and perform a functional
