If the air handler fails to operate, check the following:

•  Is the electric turned on?

•  Is the thermostat operating properly?

•  Are the blower compartment door(s) in place?

•  Is the air handler disconnect closed?

•  has the circuit breaker tripped or the control board fuse 

burned open?

•  Are any manual reset switches open?

•  Is the filter dirty or plugged?

•  Is the red LED on the air handler control board constantly 

on? If not, use 

Table 3

 to determine fault condition.

•  Is the green and red LED on the motor control board   

constantly on? If not, use 

Table 4

 to determine fault 

condition.

Blower compartment

Dirt and lint can create excessive loads on the motor 

resulting in higher than normal operating temperatures 

and shortened service life. It is recommended that the 

blower compartment be cleaned of dirt or lint that may 

have accumulated in the compartment or on the blower 

and motor as part of the annual inspection.

Blower Fan Wheel

Inspect the blower wheel blades for accumulations of dirt 

and clean if necessary. Inspect mounting nut for tightness 

when done.

Blower motor & Assembly

Inspect the blower assembly and motor mounting 

brackets for tightness and corrosion. Correct deficiencies 

if necessary. The blower motor contains sealed bearings 

and under normal operating conditions, no maintenance 

is necessary for the life of the equipment.
