TROUBLESHOOTING MXZ-2B20NA MXZ-2B20NA - 11-1. CAUTIONS ON TROUBLESHOOTING 1. Before troubleshooting, check the following: 1) Check the power supply voltage. 2) Check the indoor/outdoor connecting wire for mis-wiring. 2. Take care of the following during servicing. 1) Before servicing the air conditioner, be sure to turn off the unit first with the remote controller, and then after confirm- ing the horizontal vane is closed, turn off the breaker and/or disconnect the power plug.

• When heating, room does not get warm. • When cooling, room does not get cool. How to check inverter/compressor Disconnect the terminal of the compressor. 3 minutes after turning ON the power supply, start EMERGENCY OPERATION. 1 • After the outdoor fan starts running, wait for 1 minute or more before measuring the voltage.

• When thermistor is abnormal. Check of outdoor thermistors Replace the thermistor except RT64. Disconnect the connector in the following table and Abnormal In case that RT64 is abnormal, replace the measure the resistance of the thermistor to check outdoor power board since RT64 is combined whether the thermistor is normal or not.

• When the operation frequency does not go up from the lowest frequency. The other cases Indoor unit does not operate. (different operating models in multi system) • When you try to run two indoor units simultaneously, one for cooling and the other for heating, the unit which transmits signal to the outdoor units first decides the operation mode.
