2.If storm window presents interference, fasten a 2" wide
wood strip to the inner window sill across the full
width of the sill. The wood strip should be thick
enough to raise the height of the window sill so that
the unit can be installed without interference by the
storm window frame. See Figure. 24. Top of wood
strip should be approximately 3/4" higher than the
storm window frame (STORM WINDOW FRAME) or
wood strip (OUTDOORS) to help condensation to
drain properly to the outside.

If necessary, shim up the bottom of the fan motor
with mounting screw(s).
Check fan motor bearings; if motor shaft will not
rotate, replace the motor.
Fan motor runs.
Revolves on overload
Check voltage. See limits on this page.
If not within limits, call an electrician.
Test capacitor.
Check bearings. Does the fan blade rotate
freely?
If not, replace fan motor.
Pay attention to any change from high speed to
low speed. If the speed does not change,
replace the motor.

COMPLAINT
CAUSE
REMEDY
Fan motor noise.
Fan
If cracked, out of balance, or partially missing,
replace it.
Blower
If cracked, out of balance, or partially missing,
replace it.
Loose set screw
Worn bearings
Tighten it.
If knocking sounds continue when running or
loose, replace the motor. If the motor hums or
noise appears to be internal while running,
replace motor.
Compressor will not run,
fan motor runs.
Voltage
Wiring
Check voltage. See the limits on the preceding
page. If not within limits, call an electrician.
Check the wire connections; if loose, repair or
replace the terminal. If the wires are discon-
nected, refer to wiring diagram for identification,
and replace the wires. Check the wire connections;
If not according to the wiring diagram, correct
the connections.
Thermistor
Check the TEMP control. If not at the lowest
number, set TEMP control to this setting and
restart the unit.
Check the continuity of the thermistor. Replace
the thermistor if the circuit is open.
Capacitor (discharge
capacitor before
servicing.)
Check the capacitor.
Replace if not within ±10% of manufacturer’s
rating, replace if shorted, open, or damaged.
Compressor
Overload
Voltage
Check the compressor for open circuit or
ground. If open or grounded, replace the
compressor.
Check the compressor overload if externally mounted.
Replace if open. (If the compressor temperature is
high, remove the overload, cool, and retest.)
Compressor cycles on
overload.
Check the voltage. See the limits on the
preceding page. If voltage is not within these limits,
call an electrician.
Overload
Check overload, if externally mounted.
Replace if open. (If the compressor temperature
is high, remove the overload, cool, and retest.)

COMPLAINT
CAUSE
Fan motor
REMEDY
Compressor cycles on
overload.
If not running, determine the cause. Replace if
required.
Condenser air flow
restriction
Remove the cabinet, inspect the interior surface
of the condenser. If restricted, clean carefully
with a vacuum cleaner (do not damage fins) or
brush. Clean the interior base before
re-assembling.
Condenser fins
(damaged)
If the condenser fins are closed over a large
area on the coil surface, head pressures will
increase, causing the compressor to cycle.
Straighten the fins or replace the coil.
Capacitor
Test the capacitor.
Wiring
Check the terminals. If loose, repair or replace.
Check the system for a restriction.
If restricted, clean or replace.
Refrigeration system
Air filter
Insufficient cooling
Excessive noise
Unit undersized
Blower or fan
Determine if the unit is properly sized for the
area to be cooled.
Check the set screw, or clamp. If loose or miss-
ing, correct. If the blower or fan is hitting scroll
or barrier, rearrange the air handling parts.
Copper tubing
Remove the cabinet and carefully rearrange the
tubing not to contact the cabinet,
compressor, shroud, and barrier.
