TROUBLESHOOTING THE 24VAC POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM

Verify that the power cord is properly connected to the electrical service and that the circuit breaker is not tripped.

On units with manual

controls, place the

POWER switch in the

ON position.

On units with computer

controls, place the

ON/OFF switch in the

ON position.

Was there an

audible snap from the contactor indicating the coil energized?

No

Is 24VAC present

across Pins 4, 5, and 6 of the 15-pin connector on the front of the contactor box?

No

Is line voltage

present on the line side of the transformer?

No

Cause is loose or broken wiring, or the electrical service circuit is dead.

The primary indicator of a problem with the 24VAC Power Supply System is a failure of the power light to i l l u m i n a t e w h e n t h e POWER switch is placed in the ON position or the failure of the computer to a c t i v a t e w h e n t h e computer ON/OFF switch is pressed.
