Status LED Troubleshooting Information
Supply voltage is present at module terminals
1. Check pressure or temperature control
2. Possible loss of refrigerant
3. Blocked Condenser
1. Compressor circuit breaker or fuse(s) is open
2. Compressor contactor has failed open
3. High pressure switch is open and requires
manual reset
4. Open circuit in compressor supply wiring or
connections
5. Long compressor protector reset time due to
high ambient temperature
6. Compressor windings are damaged
1. Contactor welded closed
2. Control circuit transformer is overloaded
3. Thermostat demand signal not connected to
module
4. Verify Wiring
1. Check communications wiring
2. Verify wiring follows application guidelines
1. Check discharge temperature sensor wiring
and mounting
2. Verify sensor is not shorted. 86k @ 77°F
1. Verify CT is plugged into module
2. Verify CT is not shorted
1. Compressor protector is open
- Check for high head pressure
- Check compressor supply voltage
2. Compressor circuit breaker or fuse(s) is open
3. Broken wire or connector is not making
contact
4. Safety cutout switches open (HPCO, LPCO,
OMB, etc.)
5. Compressor contactor has failed open
1. Possible loss of refrigerant charge
2. Blocked condenser
3. Verify that discharge valve is open
4. On low temperature scroll compressors check
liquid injection
1. Excessive suction pressure or discharge
pressure
2. Improper wiring
