			2.	Check diode D18. If diode is not functioning properly, replace economizer control board.
			3.	Confirm that the economizer control board is grounded properly at PL6-4 (brown
				wire) and at brown terminal of the economizer control board (brown wire). The
				economizer motor must also be grounded properly at the negative motor terminal
				(brown wire).
			4.	Verify SW1 and SW3 are working and wired properly (see unit label diagram).
			5.	Check for 24 vac input at both PL6-1 (red wire) and PL6-3 (black wire). If 24 vac
				not present, check unit wiring (see unit label diagram). If 24 vac is found in both
				places, check for 24 vac at the yellow terminal of the economizer control board
				(yellow wire). If 24 vac power is not present, replace the economizer control board.
		Economizer motor failure.	If the indoor fan and economizer motor are energized, verify that there is a minimum

			2.	If supply-air temperature is greater than 57 F, 24 vac should be found at terminal

				of the SAT has 24 vac (white wire). If 24 vac is not present, check wiring (see unit
				label diagram).
			2.	If supply-air temperature is less than 52 F, 24 vac should be found at terminal T1
				on the SAT (violet wire). If 24 vac not found, replace SAT.
		Economizer motor failure.	If economizer control board and SAT are functioning properly, verify that there is a
			minimum of 18 vdc at the positive motor terminal. If a minimum of 18 vdc is present
			and the motor is still not operating, replace the motor.
