SOURCE: bad smell from ac unit in my house

does it smell like literally , dirty socks?if so it is dirty sock syndrome, a plague of heat pumps for years. if it smells like an electrical melting or burning of wires then time to call a pro.it could be a weak capacitor or a weak fan motor. if it is dirty sock syndrome then its the microbes that thrive when temps are middle temps and reproduce when temps are hot and cold in intermittent days. hot one day and cold the next equals call for cool then call for heat and hot steam from heated coils cause s bacteria to grow and microbes to spread across coil. when you switch back it causes the smell.if the coil is clean you can spend a chunk of money on sanitizers but best bet is to run it cool for hot weather and hot for cool weather. the transitional periods are what create the smell. avoid semi cool and semi hot periods. this condition is common to acs from all brands . lots of stuff on the internet about dirty sock syndrome

SOURCE: AC will not power on

You should remove the cover of the air conditioner. Than look by the box that the plug-in cord goes to. See if there is a fuse that needs to be replaced. Should be a glass tube fuse. Inside the fuse is a thin wire that should reach all the way across both sides of the fuse.

If the fuse is good, than your power supply is shot.

SOURCE: one unit runs a while, powers down, other unit blows transformer

Probably a control board that has gone bad and keeps blowing the transformers! While testing just add an inline 3 amp fused link to keep from blowing the transformer and just fuses until you find out if the board is not working properly! The transformer is what converts the line supply voltage to 24v to control all the low voltage devices such as contactor/relay and reversing valves and solenoids! The other unit is overheating and tripping the internal overload inside the compressor. You can cool it down quicker with a garden hose and cool water running over it. Try making sure that the outdoor coils are cleaned free of debris and I would actually use some coil cleaner to really get them clean. Also be aware of the outdoor fan is running up to speed or at all in some cases.Replace fan motor if not! Change the Capacitor also! The run capacitor could be the culpret all together! $10 or so and may solve the over heating issue alltogether! Goodluck and hope this info gets you pointed in the right direction!

On loss of utility power, Koehler residential generator (new) automatically starts up but then shuts down within seconds with ac sens loss fault; only behaves like that on loss of utility power.

I would think it's not wired in right. The Shore power sensor circuit may be tied in to Generator power. Control panel would bypass this shore power sensing circuit.

No power ac or dc IFR 1200 super s

Try another Cord/charger, with the EXACT same power specs, without the battery installed. If it works on the AC/DC cord/charger, replace the battery with a genuine battery with the exact same power specs.

UNIT SHUTS DOWN FREQUENTLY

How soon after starting does it shut down?
The hour meter is fed directly from the AC output off the generator stator, if there is no AC output the meter will not run. Assuming it shutdowns quickly, check 1st the oil level and make sure the low oil sender unit is ok, wire #24 to ground. If that is bad it will shut down. Check to see if you have 240V on L1 and L2 on the breaker for the brief time it does start, that will confirm stator/rotor has an output, then your problem moves from the generator portion to either the oil sender, or control board.

AC cycles on and off when car idles low.

The compressor should cycle on and off. Sounds like the idle needs to be set. There is a pressure sw. on the dryer that might be going bad but the plugs and wires will not cause your problem unless they are just really bad.

Error 0175: Bad CRC1, stop post task

Hi,

ERROR
0175: BAD CRC1, STOP POST TASK.

Firstly, this error is generated due to a couple of different reasons. First, there may actually be a problem with the power circuitry and the CRC function is actually doing it's job reporting the error. There are several tests you can perform to tell if this is the case with your system.

Secondly, this bad CRC error can be generated by sudden power loss to the system, especially if the system loses power during boot up or POST process. Both mean that there could be a problem with the motherboard and it needs replacing.

Try the steps below to determine what is wrong.

1) Start the system and watch the status lights in the LCD hinge or near the power button. They should flash once (some models twice) before the system shows a display. If they flash 3 times or more, you have a power problem.

2) Start the system and allow it to reach the CRC "stop post task" error message. Let it sit at this error for several hours. The system should sit at this error for ever or until user intervention occurs.

3) Some things to watch for while the system is sitting at the CRC error and running for several hours would be: Screen going black, System rebooting, System powering off, ect.. ect.. ANY activity by the system is a warning that power problems exist in the system.

4) Try restarting the system several times consecutively, shut the system down by holding the power button for 5 seconds, then restart keeping an eye on the status lights for any additional flickers.
All the above tests should be done with AC power applied and battery installed. Also ALL drives installed.



Regards.

"Cool" mode shuts off

An E1 error is automatically generated after the AC runs for so many hours to remind you to clean the filter. The owners manual says to clean the filter and unplug the unit, then plug unit back in and code will be reset. However, a User review stated that his code was not reset until he followed a fairly simple routine. "Unplug the unit. Hold down the power button and plug back in. Wait to hear a "beep" and then unplug it again. Plug unit in again and it should restart without E1 code."
