18.4.16 H97 (Outdoor Fan Motor – DC Motor Mechanism Locked)
Malfunction Decision Conditions
The rotation speed detected by the Hall IC during fan motor operation is used to determine abnormal fan motor.
Malfunction Caused
Malfunction Caused
Operation stops due to short circuit inside the fan motor winding.
Operation stops due to breaking of wire inside the fan motor.
Operation stops due to breaking of fan motor lead wires.
Operation stops due to Hall IC malfunction.
Operation error due to faulty outdoor unit PCB.
Troubleshooting
YES
NO
When abnormality indication starts again
Turn power supply on and operate fan.
Replace fan motor.
For safety reason and to prevent
component breakdown, always switch
off the power before remove and
connect the component.
