Possible deviation from specification | Possible cause of fault | Measures to be taken | ||||||||||||||||
| Too little refrigerant in circuit or expansion valve defective. |
| ||||||||||||||||
|
|
Note
If no fault can be found and air conditioner operation is not OK when test is repeated, clean refrigerant circuit (flush with refrigerant R134a or blow out with compressed air and nitrogen ). |

Note
If, after cleaning (flushing with R134a refrigerant or blowing out with compressed air or nitrogen) the AC circuit still does not operate properly, replace the expansion valve. |

Note
If operation of the air conditioning system is not OK when the test is repeated, re-fit old expansion valve and clean refrigerant circuit (flush with refrigerant R134a or blow out with compressed air and nitrogen ). Replace the compressor and liquid tank. |

| Expansion valve or compressor faulty. |

Note
t | If operation of the air conditioning system is not OK when the test is repeated, re-fit old expansion valve and clean refrigerant circuit (flush with refrigerant R134a or blow out with compressed air and nitrogen ). Replace the compressor and liquid tank. |
t | When this fault occurs, it is possible for the evaporator to ice up even when the proper quantity of refrigerant is present in the circuit. |
Possible deviation from specification | Possible cause of fault | Measures to be taken | ||||||||
| Too much refrigerant oil in the circuit. |
| ||||||||
|
Note
t | Overfilling with refrigerant oil can occur if the refrigerant oil level was not checked after the air conditioner compressor was renewed. |
t | If there is too much refrigerant oil in the circuit, discharge compressor and renew receiver. After cleaning the refrigerant circuit (flush with refrigerant R134a or blow out with compressed air and nitrogen), add the correct amount of refrigerant oil to the circuit → Chapter. |
