Compressor lock out

If 24V is not present at L1 of the heat pump control, check the high pressure switch and low

 

 

pressure bypass relay (if equipped) and all associated wiring and terminals. The safety circuit

 

 

is a closed circuit. If the high pressure switch or low pressure bypass relay are open, the

 

 

control will lock out the compressor. Replace defective component. Cycle power off and on to

 

 

reset lock out. Jump speed up terminals for 10 seconds to override 5-minute time delay.

 

 

 

 

Defective heat pump control

If 24V is present from C to Y, and C to L1 on the heat pump control, the time delay has been

 

 

overridden or expired and no 24V is present at CC, replace the heat pump control.
