Hi!
I've been browsing the old posts hoping to see threads similar to my problem, finding none, I decided to post this. I will try to explain the problem to the best of my knowledge and please bear with me. Here it goes...
Brand: Mitsubishi Electric
Model: Mr. Slim model MS-A30ND
Problem Encountered:
The compressor draws too high current during start-up then stops (current drop to zero) after 5-10 seconds. The standing pressure measured on the gas line from the indoor unit is around 150-psig. During the start-up phase, this pressure remains the same (the compound gauge is in good condition).
I checked the winding resistances and the values looks good in fact they are the same compared to other working units. I tried swapping some components e.g. capacitor and control board with the other units but the problem is still the same.
Could this be a problem of stuck compressor? If yes, what course of action would you recommend?
