Anyone got one of these. It's about a year old. Seen a few open threads about the same issue on whirlpool, but no follow ups to see how they resolved it.
Was flashing timer light on/ off. But I couldnt get an error code from it (probably doing it wrong a the instructions are poorly written)
Turned it off/ on at the mains. Inside fan runs and just blows normal air. Outside fan spins for a few seconds then stops. Again, no compressor.
Flashing error no longer appears. Even though it isn't working properly?
Tried heating, and it works perfectly. 43C coming out.
Tried cooling again and it works. Down to 16C.
Turned it off with the remote. Back to the same problem, won't cool again etc.
Had a look inside compressor unit. PCB clean as a whistle (no mice / spiders), no swollen capacitors, connectors to solenoids look fine.
Do these units get iffy reverse valves?
Or any other ideas?
Update, Left it running while the fan runs but doesnt cool. Compressor fan spun once, then failed ..5 mins later it's started to spin up perfectly.
The guy who did the install is away this week, otherwise I'd have him on to it.
I know a little (not much) about how these run, so open to suggestions.
Cheers
Call him next week?
