4.2 PIPING SYSTEM
Following is a brief description of the important components and their function in what is called the refrigeration
system. Reference should be made to Figure 26 to follow the refrigerating cycle and the flow of the refrigerant in
the cooling cycle.

4.3 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
In general, possible trouble is classified in two kinds.
The one is called Starting Failure which is caused from an electrical defect. The other is Ineffective Air
Conditioning 
caused from a defect in the refrigeration circuit and improper application.
Unit is running but cooling is ineffective.
Ineffective Cooling
Satisfactory operation
with temperature
difference of inlet & outlet
air; 44~50°F (7~10°C)
Replacement of unit if
the unit is beyond repair.
Check outdoor coil
(heat exchanger) and
fan operation.
Check heat load
increase.
Check cold air
circulation for smooth
flow.
Check gas leakage.
Clean condenser.
Not on separate circuit
Check inside gas
pressure.
Adjust refrigerant
charge.
Malfunction of
compressor.
Replacement of
compressor.
Check clogging in refrigera-
tion circuit.
Repair clogging in
refrigeration circuit.
Dirty indoor coil
(heat exchanger)
Repair gas leak.
Malfunction of fan.
Clogging of air filter.
Obstruction at air outlet.
Remove obstruction.

COMPLAINT
CAUSE
REMEDY
Fan motor will not run.
No power
Check voltage at outlet. Correct if none.
Power supply cord
Check voltage to rotary switch. If none, check
power supply cord. Replace cord if circuit is
open.
Rotary switch
Check switch continuity. Refer to wiring diagram
for terminal identification. Replace switch if
defective.
Wire disconnected or
Connect wire. Refer to wiring diagram for
connection loose
terminal identification. Repair or replace loose
terminal.
Capacitor. (Discharge
Test capacitor.
capacitor before testing.)
Replace if not within ±10% of manufacturer's
rating. Replace if shorted, open, or damaged.
Will not rotate
Fan blade hitting shroud or blower wheel hitting
scroll. Re-align assembly.
Units using slinger ring condenser fans must
have 0.22~0.25 inch clearance to the base. If it is
the base, shim up the bottom of the fan motor
with mounting screw(s).
Check fan motor bearings; if motor shaft will not
rotate, replace the motor.
Fan motor runs.
Revolves on overload.
Check voltage. See limits on this page.
If not within limits, call an electrician.
Test capacitor.
Check bearings. Does the fan blade rotate freely?
If not, replace fan motor.
Pay attention to any change from high speed to
low speed. If the speed does not change,
replace the motor.
