If unable to remove the dirt, replace the expansion valve. Evacuate and charge new refrigerant to the specified amount. If caused by gas leaking from heat sensitizing tube, replace the expansion valve. 5. EXPANSION VALVE MALFUNCTIONING (OPENING TOO MUCH) AND IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF HEAT SENSITIZING TUBE Condition • Air conditioner does not cool effectively Symptoms in refrigerant cycle • Pressure on both the low and high pressure sides is high • Frost or heavy dew is formed on the piping on the low pressure side Cause • The expansion valve is malfunctioning or the heat sensitizing tube is improperly installed • Flow control is not properly performed Diagnosis • Excessive liquid refrigerant in the low pressure side piping • Expansion valve opened too far Countermeasures • Check the installation of the heat sensitizing tube • If the installation is proper, replace the expansion valve 6. FAULTYCOMPRESSIONOFCOMPRESSOR Condition • Air conditioner does not cool Symptoms in refrigerant cycle • Pressure on the low pressure sides is too high and pressure on the high pressure side is too low Cause • There is leaking in the compressor Diagnosis • Faulty compression of compressor • Delivery valve or packing is leaking or broken , or compressor is malfunctioning Countermeasures • Check the compressor oil for contamination and quantity • Replace the compressor
