PTAC error codes: how to read and clear them

Most PTAC brands store fault codes that can be shown with a button combination on the control (for example, on GE Zoneline (2019 technical service guide) you hold FAN and the red AUX button together while the unit is OFF, and AUX clears stored faults; other models use other sequences, so use the model's tech sheet). Read the active code, fix the cause, then clear it.

ECM blower motor won't run (air handler / furnace): power, signal, then motor vs module

Work in order: line voltage at the motor plug, the command signal (24 V on a tap for constant-torque motors; board command for variable-speed), mechanical drag, and only then the motor windings versus the electronic module. Many 'bad motor' calls are a missing call or a bad ground.

Air conditioner freezing up (ice on the coil)

Ice forms when the coil gets too cold, nearly always from low airflow or running in cool weather. Thaw first, then fix airflow. Repeated icing with good airflow suggests low charge, which is sealed-system work.
