10-3. HOW TO PROCEED "SELF-DIAGNOSIS" As this air conditioner has a function to memorize all the failures that had occured, the latest failure detail can be recalled by following the procedure below. Use this function when the check code is not displayed with wired remote controller or the remote controller at use is wireless type.

10-3-4. Remote Controller Check <PAC-YT52CRA> When the air conditioner cannot be controlled from the Simple MA controller, use this function to check the remote controller. 1 First, check the power mark. When normal voltage (12 V DC) is not applied to the remote controller, the power mark goes off. When the power mark is off, check the remote controller wiring and the indoor unit.

10-5. TROUBLESHOOTING FLOW A How to check inverter/compressor Disconnect the connector between the compressor and the intelligent power module (KA25/35/50: IC700, KA60/71: IPM) Check the voltage between terminals. See 10-5. “Check of open phase”. Replace the inverter P.C. board. Are the voltages balanced? Check the compressor.

G Check of R.V. coil First of all, measure the resistance of R.V. coil to check if the coil is defective. Refer to "10-4. TROUBLE CRITERION OF MAIN PARTS". In case CN721(KA25/35/50)/CN602(KA60/71) is not connected or R.V. coil is open, voltage is generated between the terminal pins of the connector although any signal is not being transmitted to R.V.
