7.2.3 IPM protection
outdoor display
LED1 flash 2 times:
Method of
IPM protection is detected by checking the compressor running condition and so on.
Malfunction
Detection
Malfunction ■
The system leads to IPM protection due to over current
Decision ■
The compressor faulty leads to IPM protection
Conditions ■
circuit component of IPM is broken and led to IPM protection
Supposed ■
IPM protection dues to the compressor faulty
Causes ■
IPM protection dues to faulty PCB of IPM module
■
Compressor wiring disconnected
Troubleshooting
* Caution
Be sure to turn off power switch before connect or disconnect connector, or
else parts damage may be occurred.
Check the IPM module method:
Disconnect the compressor harness connector from the outdoor unit PCB.
To disengage the connector, press the protrusion on the connector.
Then, to measure resistance between P (+) andN (-) and the U, V and W terminals of the
compressor connector with a multi-tester. Evaluate the measurement results for a pass/fail judgment.
N(-)terminal of tester(P(+)for digital tester) P(+) UVW P(-) UVW
P(+)terminal of tester(N(-)for digital tester) UVW P(+) UVW P(-)
Normal resistance
Several k to several M (∗)
Unacceptable resistance Short (0 ) or open
