3. How to simply judge whether outdoor fan motor is good or bad
Turn OFF the breaker.
Disconnect two connectors (CN31, CN300) of the
outdoor fan motor from the outdoor P.C. board.
Does the fan rotate without trouble
when rotating it with hands?
If the resistance value between
1 (Red lead)
2 (White lead)
3 (Black lead)
of the connector
(CN300 : Motor winding)
is 33.7Ω, it is normal.
Fan motor is normal.
(Outdoor P.C. board error)
NOTE :
However, GND circuit error inside of the motor may be accepted in some cases when the above check is
performed.
When the fan motor does not become normal even if P .C. board is replaced, replace the outdoor fan motor.
