Status LED Status LED Description Status LED Troubleshooting Information
Green “POWER” Module has power Supply voltage is present at module terminals
Red “TRIP” LED O n Solid Thermostat demand signal
Y is p resent, but the
compressor is not running.
1. Compressor protector is open
2. Condensing unit power disconnect is open
3. Compressorcircuitbreakerorfuse(s)isopen
4. Broken supply wires or connector is not making contact
5. Compressor power wires not routed through Comfort Alert
6. Compressor contactor has failed open
Red “TRIP” L ED Flashing The anti-short cycle timer (3 minutes), in module is preventing compressor restart.
Module locks out compressor when compressor damaging ALERT code appears.
Lockout ALERT codes are noted in the Status LED Description.
During a compressor lock out, 24VAC power must be removed from module to manually reset.
Yellow “ALERT” LED On Solid A short circuit or over
current condition exists on
PROT terminal.
1. Compressor contactor coil shorted
2. Electrical load too high for PROT circuit (maximum 1 Amp)
3. 24 V AC wired directly to PROT terminal
Yellow “ALERT” Flash Code 2 System Pressure Trip
Discharge pressure out of
limits or compressor over-
load (if no high pressure
switch in system)
LOCKOUT
1. High head pressure
2. Condenser coil poor air circulation (dirty, blocked, damaged)
3. Condenser fan is not running
4. If low pressure switch is open:
Refer to Code 3 for troubleshooting
Yellow “ALERT” Flash Code 3 Short Cycling
Compressor is running only
briefly LOCKOUT
1. If low pressure switch is open:
a. Low refrigerant charge
b. Evaporator blower is not running
c. Evaporator coil is frozen
d. Faulty metering device
e. Condenser coil is dirty
f. Liquid line restriction (filter drier blocked if present)
2. If high pressure switch is open, go to Flash Code 2
information
3. Intermittent thermostat demand signal
4. System or control board defective
Yellow “ALERT” Flash Code 4 Locked Rotor
LOCKOUT
1. Low line voltage to compressor
2. Excessive liquid refrigerant in compressor
3. Compressor bearings are seized
Yellow “ALERT” Flash Code 5 Open Circuit
1. Condensing unit power disconnect is open
2. Compressorcircuitbreakerorfusesareopen
3. Compressor contactor has failed open
4. High pressure switch is open and requires manual reset
5. Broken supply wires or connector is not making contact
6. Unusually long compressor protector reset time due to
extreme ambient temperature
7. Compressor windings are damaged
Yellow “ALERT” Flash Code 6 Missing Phase
LOCKOUT
1. Compressorfuseisopenononephase
2. Broken wire or connector on one phase
3. Compressor motor winding is damaged
4. Utility supply has dropped one phase
Yellow “ALERT” Flash Code 7 Reverse Phase LOCKOUT 1. Compressor running backward due to supply p hase reversal
Yellow “ALERT” Flash Code 8 Welded Contactor
Compressor always runs
1. Compressor contactor has failed closed
2. Thermostat demand signal not connected to module
Yellow “ALERT” Flash Code 9 Low Voltage
Control circuit < 18VAC
1. Control circuit transformer is overloaded
2. Low line voltage to compressor
