20 Most Recent Friedrich QuietMaster Electronic SS12J30D Air Conditioner Questions & Answers

Try to Google the manual. I would think cycling the power would reset the machine. Turn breaker off and back on. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/thomas_092728000e6acb79

e-9 Unit cycles(Heat or cold) 3 times per hour.Unit undersized /High load conditions.Fix higher capacity of the unit.

The fan on the outside unit is powered from it's 240 volt source. Check that the breaker for the outside unit is not tripped. Also, a contactor is inside the outer unit that starts the fan - it may be faulty.

Hi,

Here is a tip about troubleshooting your air conditioner...
There are many things that can cause your air conditioner not to cool…

No the control panel recognizes the error pre remote signal therefore the remote won't work either. You may need to replace the touch pad.

Sounds like an electrical short thats keeping your breaker from re-ingaging.
Iwould guess the compressor.
If this was helpful please rate me.

Remove the front cover and make sure the temp sensing wire is in place on the front of the evaporator coils. If it has fallen and is touching the evaporator plumbing the unit can preform as you described.

Also check for signs of icing / ice build up on the evaporator coils after the uint has run for a couple of hours. Ice build up will also cause this symptom. IF you do find that the unit is icing up that can be caused by:
1. A very dirty evaporator
2.. A clogged Air filter
3. Contaminated by internal plumbing debris / clogged freon passages
4. A blower Fan motor running to slow.
5. Freon Pressure and return lines touching together usually either on the side of the unit or just behind the center chassis air wall enroute to the compressor.
6. A corroded electronic control board.

As you can see above there are several things that can cause the symptom your described. It cetainly sounds as if you either have an icing problem or a control board problem.

The next time the symptom occurs... place the unit of fan only for at least 30 minutes and then see if you can switch it to cool, and actually have it cool. If it does cool properly after switching to fan only for 30 minutes you most likely have an icing problem.

Thanks for using FixYa.

That sounds like the overload is on the way out. Remove the cover atop the compressor and check the overload for signs of distress. Make sure the capacitor is not swollen looking or leaking, another sign of a capacitor going out. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/dan_73bbd84fe1d95b61

Hi,
There can be a couple of things that could be happening...
The first and easiest thing is to check the air filter. Make sure that it is clean... clean it or replace it. Next check the air vents to make sure that they are open and giving you good air flow...
Also check to make sure that you are not icing up on the indoor coil... ice will tell you that you are low on refrigerant. You also could be low and not be icing over, but you would need to have gauges on the unit to check that.
Finally check and clean the outdoor coil...this also can give you problems if the heat is not being removed from the outdoor unit efficiently...
You may also have a unit that is sized in such a way that it hits the balance point at about 85...that means that your heat gain is equal to the capacity of the unit...I often try to size them for about that here in Northern PA. because wqhen seldom get hotter then that and the unit then is much more effective at removeing humidity at lower temperatures...

Here is one about cleaning the condenser coil and at the bottom of that one are links to others..

You can tell if freon is needed ,if you feel the coil,near the filter,all over,if it is not getting cold all over after 20 minutes of running,then it needs freon,make sure the coils are not dirty,and stopped up,before checking the evaporator (the one inside near wear the filter goes)
