WARNING
This product and/or the indoor unit it is matched with may contain fiberglass wool.
Disturbing the insulation during installation, maintenance, or repair will expose you to fiberglass wool dust. Breathing this may cause lung cancer. (Fiberglass wool is known to the State of California to cause cancer.)
Fiberglass wool may also cause respiratory, skin, and eye irritation.
To reduce exposure to this substance or for further information, consult material safety data sheets available from address shown below, or contact your supervisor.
Lennox Industries Inc. P.O. Box 799900 Dallas, TX 75379−9900
IMPORTANT
This unit must be matched with an indoor coil as specified in Lennox’ Engineering Handbook. Coils previously charged with HCFC−22 must be flushed.
CAUTION
Physical contact with metal edges and corners while applying excessive force or rapid motion can result in personal injury. Be aware of, and use caution when working nearby these areas during installation or while servicing this equipment.
IMPORTANT
The Clean Air Act of 1990 bans the intentional venting of refrigerant (CFCs, HCFCs AND HFCs) as of July 1, 1992. Approved methods of recovery, recycling or reclaiming must be followed. Fines and/or incarceration may be levied for noncompliance.
WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard. Can cause injury or death. Unit must be grounded in accordance with national and local codes.
Line voltage is present at all components when unit is not in operation on units with single-pole contactors. Disconnect all remote electric power supplies before opening access panel. Unit may have multiple power supplies.
Operating Gauge Set and Service Valves
These instructions are intended as a general guide and do not supersede local codes in any way. Consult authorities who have jurisdiction before installation.
TORQUE REQUIREMENTS
When servicing or repairing heating, ventilating, and air conditioning components, ensure the fasteners are appropriately tightened. Table 1 shows torque values for fasteners.
IMPORTANT
Only use Allen wrenches of sufficient hardness (50Rc − Rockwell Harness Scale minimum). Fully insert the wrench into the valve stem recess.
Service valve stems are factory−torqued (from 9 ft−lbs for small valves, to 25 ft−lbs for large valves) to prevent refrigerant loss during shipping and handling. Using an Allen wrench rated at less than 50Rc risks rounding or breaking off the wrench, or stripping the valve stem recess.
See the Lennox Service and Application Notes #C−08−1 for further details and information.
IMPORTANT
To prevent stripping of the various caps used, the appropriately sized wrench should be used and fitted snugly over the cap before tightening.
Table 1. Torque Requirements
Parts Recommended Torque
Service valve cap 8 ft.− lb. 11 NM
Sheet metal screws 16 in.− lb. 2 NM
Machine screws #10 28 in.− lb. 3 NM
Compressor bolts 90 in.− lb. 10 NM
Gauge port seal cap 8 ft.− lb. 11 NM
USING MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
When checking the system charge, only use a manifold gauge set that features low loss anti−blow back fittings.
Manifold gauge set used with HFC−410A refrigerant systems must be capable of handling the higher system operating pressures. The gauges should be rated for use with pressures of 0 − 800 psig on the high side and a low side of 30" vacuum to 250 psig with dampened speed to 500 psi. Gauge hoses must be rated for use at up to 800 psig of pressure with a 4000 psig burst rating.
OPERATING SERVICE VALVES
The liquid and vapor line service valves are used for removing refrigerant, flushing, leak testing, evacuating, checking charge and charging.
Each valve is equipped with a service port which has a factory−installed valve stem.
Figure 2 provides information
on how to access and operating both angle and ball service valves.

Unit Placement
CAUTION
In order to avoid injury, take proper precaution when lifting heavy objects.
See Unit Dimensions on page 3 for sizing mounting slab, platforms or supports. Refer to figure 3 for mandatory installation clearance requirements.
POSITIONING CONSIDERATIONS
Consider the following when positioning the unit:
S Some localities are adopting sound ordinances based on
the unit’s sound level registered from the adjacent property, not from the installation property. Install the unit as far as possible from the property line.
S When possible, do not install the unit directly outside a
window. Glass has a very high level of sound transmission. For proper placement of unit in relation to a window see the provided illustration in figure 4, detail A.
PLACING UNIT ON SLAB
When installing unit at grade level, the top of the slab should be high enough above grade so that water from higher ground will not collect around the unit. The slab should have a slope tolerance as described in figure 4, detail B.
NOTE  If necessary for stability, anchor unit to slab as described in figure 5, detail D.
ELEVATING THE UNIT
Units are outfitted with elongated support feet as illustrated in figure 5, detail C.
If additional elevation is necessary, raise the unit by extending the height of the unit support feet. This may be achieved by using a 2 inch (50.8mm) Schedule 40 female threaded adapter.
The specified coupling will fit snuggly into the recessed portion of the feet. Use additional 2 inch (50.8mm) Schedule 40 male threaded adaptors which can be threaded into the female threaded adaptors to make additional adjustments to the level of the unit.
NOTE  Keep the height of extenders short enough to ensure a sturdy installation. If it is necessary to extend further, consider a different type of field−fabricated framework that is sturdy enough for greater heights.

STABILIZING UNIT ON UNEVEN SURFACES
IMPORTANT
Unit Stabilizer Bracket Use (field−provided):
Always use stabilizers when unit is raised above the factory height. (Elevated units could become unstable in gusty wind conditions).
Stabilizers may be used on factory height units when mounted on unstable an uneven surface.
With unit positioned at installation site, perform the following
:
1. Remove two side louvered panels to expose the unit base.
2. Install the brackets as illustrated in figure 5, detail D using conventional practices.
3. Replace the panels after installation is complete.
ROOF MOUNTING
Install the unit a minimum of 6 inches (152 mm) above the roof surface to avoid ice build−up around the unit. Locate the unit above a load bearing wall or area of the roof that can adequately support the unit. Consult local codes for rooftop applications.
Roof Damage!
This system contains both refrigerant and oil. Some rubber roofing material may absorbed oil and cause the rubber to swell when it comes into contact with oil. The rubber will then bubble and could cause leaks. Protect the roof surface to avoid exposure to refrigerant and oil during service and installation. Failure to follow this notice could result in damage to roof surface.
TWO 90° ELBOWS INSTALLED IN LINE SET WILL
REDUCE LINE SET VIBRATION.
INSTALL UNIT LEVEL OR, IF ON A SLOPE, MAINTAIN SLOPE TOLERANCE OF 2 DEGREES (OR 2 INCHES PER 5 FEET [50 MM PER 1.5 M]) AWAY FROM BUILDING STRUCTURE.

ACCESS AND LOUVERED
IMPORTANT  Do not allow panels to hang on unit by top tab. Tab is for align-
ment and not designed to support weight of panel.
IMPORTANT  To help stabilize an outdoor unit, some installations may require strapping the unit to the pad using brackets and anchors commonly available in the marketplace.
To prevent personal injury, or damage to panels, unit or structure, be sure to ob­serve the following:
While installing or servicing this unit, carefully stow all removed panels out of the way, so that the panels will not cause injury to personnel, nor cause damage to objects or structures nearby, nor will the panels be subjected to damage (e.g., be­ing bent or scratched).
While handling or stowing the panels, consider any weather conditions, especially windy conditions, that may cause panels to be blown around and battered.

New or Replacement Line Set
REFRIGERANT LINE SET
This section provides information on installation or replacement of existing line set. If new or replacement line set is not being installed then proceed to Brazing Connections on page 14.
IMPORTANT
Lennox highly recommends changing line set when converting the existing system from HCFC−22 to HFC−410A. If that is not possible and the line set is the proper size as reference in table 2, use the procedure outlined under Flushing the System on page 13.
If refrigerant lines are routed through a wall, then seal and isolate the opening so vibration is not transmitted to the building. Pay close attention to line set isolation during installation of any HVAC system. When properly isolated from building structures (walls, ceilings. floors), the refrigerant lines will not create unnecessary vibration and subsequent sounds. See figure 6 for recommended installation practices. Also, consider the following when placing and installing a high−efficiency outdoor unit.
Liquid lines that meter the refrigerant, such as RFC1 liquid lines, must not be used in this application. Existing line set of proper size as listed in table 2 may be reused. If system was previously charged with HCFC−22 refrigerant, then existing line set must be flushed (see Flushing the System on page 15).
Field refrigerant piping consists of liquid and vapor lines from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit coil (braze connections).

NOTE  Some applications may required a field provided 7/8" to 1−1/8" adapter
NOTE  When installing refrigerant lines longer than 50 feet, see the Lennox Refrigerant Piping Design and Fabrication Guidelines, CORP. 9351−L9, or contact Lennox Technical Support Product Applications for assistance.
To obtain the correct information from Lennox, be sure to communicate the following information:
S Model (XC17) and size of unit (e.g. −036).
S Line set diameters for the unit being installed as listed in
table 2 and total length of installation.
S Number of elbows vertical rise or drop in the piping.
IMPORTANT
Mineral oils are not compatible with HFC−410A. If oil must
be added, it must be a Polyol ester oil.
The compressor is charged with sufficient Polyol ester oil for line set lengths up to 50 feet. Recommend adding oil to system based on the amount of refrigerant charge in the system. No need to add oil in system with 20 pounds of refrigerant or less. For systems over 20 pounds − add one ounce of every five pounds of refrigerant.
Recommended topping−off POE oils are Mobil EAL ARCTIC 22 CC or ICI EMKARATEt RL32CF.
WARNING
Danger of fire. Bleeding the refrigerant charge from only the high side may result in the low side shell and suction tubing being pressurized. Application of a brazing torch while pressurized may result in ignition of the refrigerant and oil mixture − check the high and low pressures before unbrazing.
WARNING
When using a high pressure gas such as dry nitrogen to pressurize a refrigeration or air conditioning system, use a regulator that can control the pressure down to 1 or 2 psig (6.9 to 13.8 kPa).
CAUTION
Brazing alloys and flux contain materials which are hazardous to your health.
Avoid breathing vapors or fumes from brazing operations. Perform operations only in well ventilated areas.
Wear gloves and protective goggles or face shield to protect against burns.
Wash hands with soap and water after handling brazing alloys and flux.

IMPORTANT
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) prohibits the intentional venting of HFC refrigerants during maintenance, service, repair and disposal of appliance. Approved methods of recovery, recycling or reclaiming must be followed.
IMPORTANT
If this unit is being matched with an approved line set or indoor unit coil which was previously charged with mineral oil, or if it is being matched with a coil which was manufactured before January of 1999, the coil and line set must be flushed prior to installation. Take care to empty all existing traps. Polyol ester (POE) oils are used in Lennox units charged with HFC−410A refrigerant. Residual mineral oil can act as an insulator, preventing proper heat transfer. It can also clog the expansion device, and reduce the system performance and capacity. Failure to properly flush the system per the instructions below will void the warranty.
Leak Testing the System
IMPORTANT
Leak detector must be capable of sensing HFC refrigerant.
WARNING
When using a high pressure gas such as dry nitrogen to pressurize a refrigeration or air conditioning system, use a regulator that can control the pressure down to 1 or 2 psig (6.9 to 13.8 kPa).
WARNING
Refrigerant can be harmful if it is inhaled. Refrigerant must be used and recovered responsibly.
Failure to follow this warning may result in personal injury or death.
WARNING
Fire, Explosion and Personal Safety Hazard.
Failure to follow this warning could result in damage, personal injury or death.
Never use oxygen to pressurize or purge refrigeration lines. Oxygen, when exposed to a spark or open flame, can cause damage by fire and/ or an explosion, that could result in personal injury or death.

NOTE  Normally, the high pressure hose is connected to the liquid line port. However, connecting it to the vapor port better protects the manifold gauge set from high pressure damage.
A With both manifold valves closed, connect the cylinder of HFC−410A refrigerant to the center port of the manifold gauge set.
Open the valve on the HFC−410A cylinder (vapor only).
B Open the high pressure side of the manifold to allow HFC−410A into the line set and indoor unit. Weigh in a trace amount of
HFC−410A. [A trace amount is a maximum of two ounces (57 g) refrigerant or three pounds (31 kPa) pressure]. Close the valve on the HFC−410A cylinder and the valve on the high pressure side of the manifold gauge set. Disconnect the HFC−410A cylinder.
C Connect a cylinder of dry nitrogen with a pressure regulating valve to the center port of the manifold gauge set.
D Adjust dry nitrogen pressure to 150 psig (1034 kPa). Open the valve on the high side of the manifold gauge set in order to pressurize the
line set and the indoor unit.
E After a few minutes, open one of the service valve ports and verify that the refrigerant added to the system earlier is measurable
with a leak detector.
F After leak testing disconnect gauges from service ports.
LINE SET AND INDOOR COIL
After the line set has been connected to the indoor unit and air conditioner, check the line set connections and indoor unit for leaks. Use the following procedure to test for leaks:
LEAK TEST
A Connect an HFC−410A manifold gauge set high
pressure hose to the vapor valve service port.
B With both manifold valves closed, connect the
cylinder of HFC−410A refrigerant to the center port of the manifold gauge set.

Evacuating the System
A Open both manifold valves and start the vacuum pump. B Evacuate the line set and indoor unit to an absolute pressure of 23,000 microns (29.01 inches of mercury).
NOTE  During the early stages of evacuation, it is desirable to close the manifold gauge valve at least once. A rapid rise in pressure indicates a relatively large leak. If this occurs, repeat the leak testing procedure.
NO TE  The t erm absolute pressure means the total actual pressure within a given volume or system, above the absolute zero of pressure. Absolute pressure in a vacuum is equal to atmospheric pressure minus vacuum pressure.
C When the absolute pressure reaches 23,000 microns (29.01 inches of mercury), close the manifold gauge valves, turn off the vacuum
pump and disconnect the manifold gauge center port hose from vacuum pump. Attach the manifold center port hose to a dry nitrogen cylinder with pressure regulator set to 150 psig (1034 kPa) and purge the hose. Open the manifold gauge valves to break the vacuum in the line set and indoor unit. Close the manifold gauge valves.
D Shut off the dry nitrogen cylinder and remove the manifold gauge hose from the cylinder. Open the manifold gauge valves to release the
dry nitrogen from the line set and indoor unit.
E Reconnect the manifold gauge to the vacuum pump, turn the pump on, and continue to evacuate the line set and indoor unit until the
absolute pressure does not rise above 500 microns (29.9 inches of mercury) within a 20−minute period after shutting off the vacuum pump and closing the manifold gauge valves.
F When the absolute pressure requirement above has been met, disconnect the manifold hose from the vacuum pump and connect it to an
upright cylinder of HFC−410A refrigerant. Open the manifold gauge valve 1 to 2 psig in order to release the vacuum in the line set and indoor unit.

IMPORTANT
Use a thermocouple or thermistor electronic vacuum gauge that is calibrated in microns. Use an instrument capable of accurately measuring down to 50 microns.
WARNING
Danger of Equipment Damage. Avoid deep vacuum operation. Do not use compressors to evacuate a system. Extremely low vacuums can cause internal arcing and compressor failure. Damage caused by deep vacuum operation will void warranty.
Evacuating the system of non−condensables is critical for
proper operation of the unit. Non−condensables are
defined as any gas that will not condense under temperatures and pressures present during operation of an air conditioning system. Non−condensables and water suction combine with refrigerant to produce substances that corrode copper piping and compressor parts.

Unit Start−Up
IMPORTANT
If unit is equipped with a crankcase heater, it should be energized 24 hours before unit start−up to prevent compressor damage as a result of slugging.
1. Rotate fan to check for binding.
2. Inspect all factory− and field−installed wiring for loose connections.
3. After evacuation is complete, open both the liquid and vapor line service valves to release the refrigerant charge contained in outdoor unit into the system.
4. Replace the stem caps and tighten to the value listed in table 1.
5. Check voltage supply at the disconnect switch. The voltage must be within the range listed on the unit’s
nameplate. If not, do not start the equipment until you have consulted with the power company and the voltage condition has been corrected.
6. Set the thermostat for a cooling demand. Turn on power to the indoor indoor unit and close the outdoor unit disconnect switch to start the unit.
7. Recheck voltage while the unit is running. Power must be within range shown on the nameplate.
8. Check system for sufficient refrigerant by using the procedures listed under System Charge.

ADDING OR REMOVING REFRIGERANT
This system uses HFC−410A refrigerant which operates at much higher pressures than HCFC−22. The pre−installed liquid line filter drier is approved for use with HFC−410A only. Do not replace it with components designed for use with HCFC−22. This unit is NOT approved for use with coils which use capillary tubes or fixed orifices as a refrigerant metering device.

System Operation
IMPORTANT
Some scroll compressor have internal vacuum protector that will unload scrolls when suction pressure goes below 20 psig. A hissing sound will be heard when the compressor is running unloaded. Protector will reset when low pressure in system is raised above 40 psig. DO NOT REPLACE COMPRESSOR.
The air conditioner control (A175) provides the following system functions:
S Compressor anti−short−cycle delay. S High and low pressure switches S Ambient and Discharge Line Temperatures Monitoring
and Protection.
S Five strikes lockout safety feature for High/Low Pressure
Switches and High Discharge Line Temperature. See figures 34, 33 and 35 feature function.
COMPRESSOR ANTI−SHORT CYCLE DELAY
The air conditioner control (A175) protects the compressor from:
S Short cycling (five minutes) when there is initial power up S Interruption in power to the unit S High or low pressure switch or discharge line sensor trips S Delay after Y1 demand is removed.
The anti−short timer in the air conditioner control is five (5) minutes. To override timer when active or inactive − place jumper on the field test pins between 1 and 2 seconds.
Resetting Anti−Short Cycle Delay
The FIELD TEST pins (E33) on the air conditioner control (A175) can be jumpered between 1 to 2 seconds to bypass delay.
HIGH AND LOW PRESSURE SWITCHES
The unit’s reset pressure switches LO PS (S4) and HI PS (S87) are factory−wired into the air conditioner control (A175) on the LO−PS and HI−PS terminals, there locations are illustrated on page 5. Sequence of operations for both pressure switches are provided in figures 34 and 33.
When replacing either the high or low pressure switches, tighten switch using either of the following methods:
S With Torque Wrench: Finger tighten and torque to 100
inch pounds.
S Without Torque Wrench: Finger tighten and use an
appropriately sized wrench to turn an additional 1/2 to full turn clockwise.

HIGH DISCHARGE LINE TEMPERATURE SENSOR
(RT28)
The high discharge line temperature sensor location is illustrated on page 5. This sensor’s sequence of operations is provided in figure 35.
High Discharge Line Sensor Open/Shorted Event
Condition
Discharge sensor open / short fault is ignored during initial 90−seconds of compressor run time. After that, if discharge temperature sensor is detected open or short, the control will de−energize all the outputs and anti−short cycle timer is started. Discharge sensor faulty alert LED code will be displayed.
OUTDOOR AMBIENT TEMPERATURE (RT13)
If the outdoor ambient temperature sensor detected a open, or out of range −40ºF to +140ºF (−40ºC to 60ºC) then LED alert codes are displayed, however cooling operation will continue. See table 9 for LED alert codes for the ambient sensor. Location of outdoor ambient temperature sensor is illustrated on page 5.
COIL TEMPERATURE SENSOR
This model does not use a coil temperature sensor. The cable assembly attached to the air conditioner control (A175)’s E30 connection has a 10K resister installed between pins 5 and 6 as illustrated in figure 18. No alerts or alarms would be generated if resistor is damage.

TESTING AMBIENT AND HIGH DISCHARGE LINE TEMPERATURE SENSORS
Sensors connect through a field-replaceable harness assembly that plugs directly into the air conditioner control (A175). Through these sensors, the air conditioner control can monitor outdoor ambient and discharge line temperature fault conditions. As the detected temperature changes, the resistance across the sensor changes. figures 7 and 8 lists how the resistance varies as the temperature changes for both type of sensors. Sensor resistance values can be checked by ohming across pins shown in table 6.
When a sensor indicates a resistance value that is not within the range as listed in table 6, then the following condition may be present:
Page 33
Page 33
XC17
S Sensor detects an out−of−range outdoor ambient air
temperature condition and will display LED alert code on the air conditioner control.
S The sensor is operating normally when the ambient air
temperature at the sensor is below or above the air conditioner control (A175)’s expected ohm values. The Air conditioner control (A175) will indicate the sensor as faulty, however under this scenario, the sensor is not actually faulty.

TEST PINS FUNCTION
Placing the JUMPER ON the field test pins (E33) (see page 24 for location of TEST pins) allows the technician to
S Clear compressor anti−short cycle delay. S Clear five−strike fault lockouts  High/low pressure switches and high discharge temperature sensor.
NOTES: 1  Placing a JUMPER ON the TEST pins will not bring the unit out of inactive mode. The only way manually
activate the outdoor unit from an inactive mode is to cycle the 24VAC power to the outdoor unit’s air conditioner control (A175).
2  If the jumper remains on the TEST pins for longer than five seconds, the air conditioner control (A175) will ignore the JUMPER ON TEST pins and revert to normal operation.

System Status, Fault and Lockout LED Codes
LED codes are displayed via various LEDs located on the air conditioner control (A175). See page for locations of air conditioner control LEDs.
DS11 AND DS14  SYSTEM STATUS, FAULT AND LOCKOUT LED CODES
DS11 (Green) and DS14 (Red) LEDs indicate diagnostics conditions that are listed in table 9.
These LEDs display fault conditions in unit cooling capacity, dehumidification mode, anti−short cycle lockout, high and low pressures, discharge line temperature, outdoor temperature, and discharge sensor failures.
DS15 AND DS13  COMPRESSOR FAULT AND LOCKOUT LED CODES
DS15 (Yellow) and DS13 (Red) LEDs indicate diagnostics conditions that are listed in table 9.
These LEDs display the most common compressor or compressor related fault conditions in the unit. When an abnormal condition is detected, this function communicates the specific condition through LEDs. The diagnostic function is capable of detecting both mechanical and electrical system abnormal conditions.
IMPORTANT
DS15 and DS13 compressor LED fault and lockout codes do not provide safety protection. The is a monitoring function only and cannot control or shut down other devices.
RESETTING FAULT AND LOCKOUT LED CODES
All LED fault and lockout codes can be reset manually or automatically:
1. Manual Reset
Manual reset can be achieve by one of the following methods:
S Disconnect R wire from the air conditioner
control’s R terminal.
S Turning main power OFF and then ON at the unit’s
disconnect switch.
After power up, existing code will display for 60 seconds and then clear.
2. Automatic Reset
After a fault or lockout error is detected, the air conditioner control continues to monitor the unit’s system status and compressor operations. When/if conditions return to normal, the alarm code is turned off automatically.

Component Field Configuration and Troubleshooting
FAN MOTOR (B4) TEST PROCEDURE
A simple test can be used to test the fan motor operation. A fully charged 9V battery will be required for this procedure. See figure 23 for test procedure.
FAN MOTOR CONTROL (A177)
This section provides procedures for testing the fan control.
FAN MOTOR CONTROL LED CODES AND SEQUENCE OF OPERATIONS
During start up, the LED:
1. Display error conditions (see table 13), if present
2. If no errors are detected, then the LED code indicating stage operation (see table 15) will display the applicable code and then a long pause.
3. The fan motor speed / RPM (revolutions per minute) indicator is displayed next (see table 14).
4. After the RPM indicator is displayed, there is a short pause. The sequence repeats if a thermostat demand is still present. See figure 20 for LED sequence. See table 15 for description of flash and pause durations.
FAN MOTOR CONTROL TROUBLESHOOTING
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 table 14 for one−stage to verify that the jumpers are set correctly for the specific unit.
Verifying LED Status Codes
During start up, the fan motor control 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 14).
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 tables 14 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 14).
3. Test DC voltage output on the fan motor control’s J2 terminals (see figure 21) while the motor is under full load. The actual voltage tested should match the voltage listed in table 14 for the specific unit.
4. If no voltage is detected at the J2 terminals, verify there is a Y1 demand at the thermostat.
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 11. Voltage will only be present during a thermostat demand. See figure 22 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.

TOP GRILLE OR FAN MOTOR MOUNT ADJUSTMENT FOR FAN CLEARANCE
Sometimes during shipping, either the fan motor mounting or top grille may become out of alignment. This may cause the fan motor blade to not clear the orifice ring. If this situation occurs, simply adjust either or both the fan motor mount or top grille positions to allow proper clearance. The top grille four fastener insertion points to the plastic top and motor mount locations are larger than the fasteners used to secure the grille and fan motor mounts. Use the procedures provided in figure 24 to adjust for fan clearance.

FAN MOTOR SURGE PROTECTION (XC17−XXX−223−01 and −02 builds only)
Surge Protector (Metal Oxide Varistor − MOV) − A part
designed to protect electrical devices from voltage spikes that are 3 to 4 times the normal circuit voltage (See figure 25 for illustration of component).
An MOV works as follows: It is essentially a batch of metallic−oxide grains separated by insulating layers. Repeated voltage surges break down the insulating layers, lowering the overall resistance and eventually causing the device to draw too much current and trip whatever over−current protection is inherent in the system)
MOV Check: They are supposed to be located beyond the line fuse (though possibly not always). In this case, where the line fuse blows or circuit breaker trips but there is no visible damage to the MOV(s), the simplest test may be to just temporarily remove the MOV(s) and see if the problem goes away.
See figure 1 for location of the surge protections device which is located in the unit control box area. Note that in
some units, the surge protection device was not used.

Unit Sequence of Operations
The following figures illustrated the overall unit sequence of operations along with various pressure switches and temperature sensor operations. The figures also illustration the use of the compressor anti−short cycle function in relations to unit Status, Fault and Lockout LED Codes system operations interaction.
On 24VAC power−up or air conditioner control (A175) reset, the air conditioner control shall perform the following tasks:
1. Start the anti−short cycle delay.
2. Check temperature sensor and pressure switches at the start of cooling demand.
3. Air Conditioner control responds to the thermostat input after the anti−short cycle timer expires. If there is no thermostat input, control goes to standby mode.
Air conditioner control receives cooling input.
The air conditioner control (A175) will apply:
1. 24VAC to compressor contactor output Y1 OUT..
2. Output between 24 and 32 VDC on air conditioner control’s ECM fan terminals ECM Y1 FAN and ECM C.
NOTE − If low pressure switch is closed, system will ignore for 90 seconds.
The outdoor fan control (A177) will:
Receive the DC voltage signal from the outdoor control (A175) and converted the signal to a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal. Jumper settings will determine fan PWM OUT fan speed.
NOTE  Refer to table 14 for jumper settings.
For low pressure (S87) and high (S4) switches sequence of operations, see figures 33 and 34.

If 5−strike counter has four or less strikes when Y1 demand is terminated or satisfied, the strike counter will reset to zero. In a icomfort Toucht thermostat enabled setup, the thermostat will terminate demand when the compressor contactor is de−energized. If demand is satisfied when alarm is not active, the 5−strike counter will reset.
