SiBE06-708 Check
Service Diagnosis 143
5.1.10 Capacitor Voltage Check
Check No.12 Before this checking, be sure to check the main circuit for short-circuit.
Checking the capacitor voltage
z
With the circuit breaker still on, measure the voltage according to the drawing of the model in
question. Be careful never to touch any live parts.
5.1.11 Power Transistor Check
Check No.13
25/35 class
Note: Check to make sure that the voltage between the terminal of Power transistor (+) and (-) is
approx. 0 volt before checking power transistor.
< Measuring method >
Disconnect the compressor harness connector from the outdoor unit PCB. To disengage the
connector, press the protrusion on the connector.
Then, follow the procedure below to measure resistance between power transistor (+) and (-)
and the U, V and W terminals of the compressor connector with a multi-tester. Evaluate the
measurement results for a pass/fail judgment.
