Testing

Use the following subsections to verify and test the fan motor control (A177).

Verifying Jumper Settings (J2)

The unit is shipped from the factory with the default fan motor speed setting (in RPMs) required for each specific model. Use the table 16 verify that jumpers are set correctly for the specific unit.

Verifying LED Status Codes

During start up, the fan motor control (A177) LED will display any error conditions. If error conditions exist then no other codes will display. If no error conditions are present, then the stage status and and RPM indicator are displayed. Fan motor speeds are not adjustable for a single stage outdoor unit (see table 16).

Verifying Correct DC Output Voltage (J2)

The following three methods can be used to determine whether the fan motor (B4) is operating at the correct RPMs based on unit size.

1.Use the information provided in table 16 to verify that all four jumper terminals are set correctly for the specific size unit.

2.Verify LED RPM indicator is displaying the correct flash sequence for the applicable size unit (see table 18).

3.Test DC voltage output on the fan motor control’s J2 terminals (see figure 34) while under full load and verify the voltage read to the voltage listed in table 16 for the applicable size unit.

4.If no voltage is detected at the J2 terminals, verify there is a Y1 demand at the thermostat and applicable voltages detected all fan motor control (A177) voltage inputs, see table 21.

If there is a demand, proceed to the next section for further testing.

Verifying Correct Input Voltage (ECM/Y1, ECM/Y2,

ECM C and EXT ECM/R)

Using a voltmeter, check voltages on the following fan motor control inputs using table 21. Voltage will only be present during a thermostat demand. See figure 35 for test example.

If correct voltages are detected at applicable inputs during a demand, and no voltage is present at the J2 terminals, then fan motor control should be replaced.
