Troubleshooting SiUS091601E97 Service Diagnosis4.20 Electrical Box Temperature RiseError Code L3Method of ErrorDetectionAn electrical box temperature rise is detected by checking the radiation fin thermistor with thecompressor off.Error DecisionConditions With the compressor off, the radiation fin temperature is above A. The error is cleared when the radiation fin temperature drops below B. To cool the electrical components, the outdoor fan starts when the radiation fin temperaturerises above C and stops when the radiation fin temperature drops below B.+: The same value continues.SupposedCauses Defective outdoor fan motor Short circuit Defective radiation fin thermistor Disconnection of connector Defective outdoor unit PCBTroubleshootingCheck No.17Refer to P.108Check No.19Refer to P.109A B C°C °F °C °F °C °F09 class 82 179.6 65 149 70 15812 class 90 + 194 + 75 167 81 + 177.8 +15 class 90 + 194 + 64 147.2 81 + 177.8 +CautionWARNINGTo cool the electrical components,the outdoor fan starts when theradiation fin temperature risesabove C and stops when the radiationfin temperature drops below B.(R22998)YESNOYESNGNOOKNOYESTurn off the power.
