Diagnosis procedure at indoor unit
When indoor fan motor is out of order or compressor lock occurs, the compressor, indoor fan motor, outdoor
fan motor, and louver are all stopped and the operation LED(red) turns on or off synchronously with the timimg
of the timer LED.
When the thermistor for room temperature or pipe temperature is open or short state, the operation LED turns
on or off synchronously with the timing of the timer LED by pushing continously for more than 5 seconds
"AUX." button during suspension of operation.

Timing chart of Timer LED and Operation LED of DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE.
When "OI" button the remote controller or "AUX." button in the unit is pushed, the unit is free from
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE.

When the louver unit is not properly installed, all lamps on the indicator panel will blink, operation are all stop
and remote signal is not accept.

NO

The machine does not function
at all with remote controller and
switch on the indoor unit. 

Using a tester, measure the 
voltage between anodes of D1 
and D2 on PWB ass'y.

Is the measured value 

approx. 17.5 Vac ?

Replace the PWB with a new 
one.

Is the WPE1

open  circuit ?

Replace the fuse and varistor 
with new ones.

Replace the transformer with
a new one.

Check  the  cleaning

switch  2(1), the connector 

CN9(8) and lead  wires.

Replace the cleaning switch  2(1).

Push button "O/I" on the 
wireless remote controller.

Is transmitting

indicator of the remote 

controller active ?

Is indicator lamp of

indoor unit proper ?

Replace the 
PWB  with a 
new one.

Does beep sound

from the indoor unit ?

Using a tester,
measure the voltage
between terminals
of resistor R26
on the PWB ass'y.

Push the button "O/I".

Are batteries of the

wireless remote controller 

proper ?

Replace the batteries 
with new ones.

Replace the wireless
remote controller.

When the signal is

received, does the voltage

change ?

Replace the PWB with a new 
one.

PWB is normal.
Inspect the outdoor unit.

The room is not cooled at all
or not cooled.
The compressor does not operate.

Measure resistances of TH1 and TH2.

The control circuit is normal.
   The compressor may be defective.
   The running capacitor may be defective.
   Refrigerant may be leaked.
   The outdoor fan motor may be defective.
   The outdoor fan motor capacitor may be defective.

Push the button "AUX." on 
the  indoor unit, for more than 5 sec.

Is the voltage

between terminal "N" and

"1" of the terminal board the

power supply voltage ?

Are the resistances

conformed Fig. 1 ?

Replace the thermistor ass'y with a new one.
